The posting

MISSION

TAR’s mission is to power intelligence for the world. We are building the world’s first off-grid power plant for data centers powered by renewable technologies.

We firmly believe AI should be built in the US for the benefit of all people. For that, power must be fast, clean and scalable. We are singularly focused on delivering GW-scale power faster than anyone has ever done, by rethinking every layer of the stack.

We vertically integrate to solve every bottleneck, from racking systems to power electronics to dispatch algorithms to on-site construction.

Leave your mark on the future of civilization-scale energy infrastructure.

COMPANY

TAR is both a hardware and software company, we are building out massive, critical, physical infrastructure. TAR is working directly with one of the largest compute providers to scale and deploy 5GWs by 2028.

We operate on…

- High ownership. High Agency. Own project end-to-end. Great people don’t need to be managed.

- Speed. We achieve great things on incredible timelines. We push ourselves to go faster.

- First principles. No ego. No hierarchy. Challenge every assumption.

- Passion. Solving the energy problem is one of the largest challenges that faces the world now and in the future.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Gigawatt-scale solar-plus-storage needs land at a scale few developers have ever assembled. As Site Selection Manager, you own the front end of that pipeline: finding, qualifying, and bringing to the table the hundreds of thousands of acres TAR needs to build. You will work directly alongside our site development lead, taking on the sourcing, outreach, and first-pass diligence so that leadership can focus on evaluating and closing the strongest sites. This is a field-heavy role.

Expect to spend much of your time on the road in West Texas, meeting landowners, walking ground, and working county records in person. You are accountable for the size and quality of the land pipeline; site evaluation and final deal approval sit with the site development lead and leadership.

RESPONSIBILITIES

- Build and own TAR's land sourcing pipeline across West Texas, screening hundreds of thousands of acres for size, contiguity, terrain, solar resource, and access so the strongest sites reach evaluation first.

- Use parcel, GIS, and mapping tools to identify large, assemblable tracts, map ownership, and flag constraints such as floodplain, easements, mineral and surface rights, and existing infrastructure before time is spent in the field.

- Run direct outreach to ranch owners, families, trusts, institutional and state landholders, brokers, and local land agents, turning cold contacts into active conversations and signed letters of intent or options.

- Travel across West Texas to walk sites, meet landowners face to face, and pull deed, title, and appraisal district records at the county level, building the local relationships that surface off-market land.

- Prepare clear site packages for the site development lead, covering ownership, acreage, price expectations, title and encumbrance flags, and preliminary environmental and access notes, so evaluation decisions move in days, not weeks.

- Coordinate early diligence with title companies, surveyors, and environmental consultants, keeping each workstream moving and escalating issues that could kill or delay a deal.

- Keep the pipeline current in TAR's CRM and trackers, reporting acreage under conversation, under LOI, and under control so leadership always knows where the land position stands.

- Find new ways to source land at scale, from data-driven parcel screening to AI-assisted outreach and research, and replace slow, legacy acquisition habits with faster methods that work.

QUALIFICATIONS

- 2+ years of experience in land acquisition, land brokerage, landman work, real estate, or energy or infrastructure development.

- Familiarity with Texas land records (title review, ALTA surveys), mineral and surface rights, and county appraisal district data.

- Willingness to travel frequently and extensively across West Texas, including multi-day field trips and long field days on rural property.

- Demonstrated drive and persistence: a record of opening doors through cold outreach and staying with long, hard sales or negotiation cycles until they close.

- Hands-on proficiency with modern land and mapping tools such as Regrid, LandGate, Land id, Google Earth Pro, or QGIS/ArcGIS, plus spreadsheets and CRM systems.

- Clear, direct communication and the ability to build trust with rural landowners and local stakeholders in person.

- Fluency with AI and productivity tools to research, organize, and scale outreach faster than traditional methods allow.

- Valid driver's license and ability to drive to and access remote sites.

- Ability to work from Austin, Texas when not in the field.

NICE TO HAVE

- Experience acquiring or leasing land for utility-scale solar, wind, storage, transmission, or data center projects.

- Existing relationships with West Texas landowners, ranchers, or land brokers.

SALARY AND BENEFITS

- Up to $15K relocation bonus

- Unlimited PTO

- Health, Dental, Vision insurance

- $1K monthly stipend for meals

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
