We are proud to offer interesting and challenging opportunities for individuals who want to build teams, solve problems, and make an impact from day one.

  • Serve as a trusted partner to the CEO by generating and delivering rigorous quantitative and qualitative insights to drive business strategy and decision-making.
  • Participate in or lead key meetings with internal and external stakeholders with or on behalf of the CEO, shaping program design and execution and ensuring that initiatives are executed to the highest standard.
  • Align and manage internal and external stakeholders across special projects ranging from cross-functional initiatives to executive-specific needs.   
  • Produce materials for internal and external stakeholders, including memos, presentations, and materials for Board of Director meetings. 
  • Collaborate with the broader leadership team to develop organizational OKRs, ensuring effective communication of objectives, accountability tracking against objectives, and effective presentation of progress.
  • Partner with the CFO to execute organizational planning and budgeting initiatives. 
  • Monitor and assess organizational performance, diagnosing areas of improvement and offer well-communicated insights and solutions. 
  • Identify opportunities to train team members, elevate work products, and enhance processes, systems, and tools to drive greater impact and efficiency across the organization. 
  • And other duties as assigned.

    • Pre- and post-MBA role at a top-tier strategy consulting firm or investment bank
    • Investment role at a bulge bracket or leading middle-market private equity firm
    • Market-facing strategy and operations role at a high-growth technology startup
    • Officer in the U.S. Military with demonstrated ability leading teams and supporting more senior officers

  • Entrepreneurial and driven: runs through walls to get it done, and a track record of high efficiency/output. 
  • Ambition is a big part of the role. We want someone that can grow into a leader at this company, not an assistant.   
  • A strong orientation towards outcomes, and a willingness to roll up your sleeves and get the job done. This is not a standard 9-5 role, and a successful candidate will be expected to be available outside of normal working hours. 
  • Passionate about energy, data centers, and next generation computing.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
