Role Summary:

Rowan Digital Infrastructure is seeking a Senior Director of Energy Strategy & Development, New Markets to define and lead the energy strategy for Rowan’s expanding data center portfolio. This role is responsible for setting and executing multi‑year, function‑wide strategies that enable the delivery of reliable, scalable, and sustainable power infrastructure aligned with Rowan’s customer commitments and long‑term growth objectives for firm, clean, cost-effective capacity.

As a senior leader, you will own Rowan’s new market energy strategy end‑to‑end—spanning market entry, site selection, grid and alternative energy solutions, regulatory engagement, and commercial execution. You will partner closely with utilities, transmission system operators (TSOs), regulators, governments, customers, and internal teams to unlock capacity, mitigate risk, and accelerate development timelines across diverse regional power markets.

This role requires deep technical and commercial expertise in power infrastructure, strong regulatory fluency across utility jurisdictions, and the ability to lead complex, cross‑functional initiatives with material company‑wide impact. You will coordinate across a high‑performing team of energy professionals and act as a trusted advisor to Rowan’s executive leadership and Board of Directors.

- Lead negotiations with utilities, TSOs, regulators, and energy partners for interconnection, electrical service, and long‑term energy agreements.

- Develop creative, market‑specific solutions that accelerate timelines and mitigate constraints in capacity‑limited or highly regulated environments.

Cross‑Functional & External Leadership

- Act as Rowan’s senior energy representative with utility executives, regulators, government agencies, and major customers

- Build deep partnerships across Development, Real Estate, Finance, Legal, Sustainability, and Business Development teams to ensure integrated decision‑making and execution.

Governance, Risk, and Business Case Ownership

- Build and own investment cases for energy infrastructure and commercial agreements; align executive leadership and the Board on risk, return, and execution strategy.

- Anticipate regulatory, market, and grid‑related risks; develop mitigation strategies for factors outside Rowan’s direct control.

Education, Skills, and Experience:

- Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field (engineering, business, economics, construction management, real estate, or related discipline).

- MBA or advanced degree preferred.

- 15+ years of experience developing power infrastructure for large, energy‑intensive assets (e.g., data centers, industrial facilities, infrastructure projects),

- Demonstrated experience negotiating interconnection, transmission, and long‑term power agreements with utilities, TSOs, or renewable developers.

- Proven track record leading multi‑team, multi‑year initiatives with material business impact.

- Deep technical expertise in transmission and distribution infrastructure, with strong working knowledge of power market structures and regulatory frameworks.
