has been a fully flexible workplace since its founding in 2016. We are not work-from-home, hybrid, or in-office – we are any and all of those options. Deepening social connections and offering shared experiences is a cornerstone of the way we work. We connect as a team at our Team Week experiences four times a year and at our Hub locations – SF Bay Area, NYC Metro Area, NY; Denver, CO; Houston, TX; Calgary, AB; and Toronto, ON. We are currently looking for candidates located within 60 miles of any of the listed hubs to foster more in-person connections while maintaining our flexible remote culture.
About This Role As part of Intersect’s Land Acquisition team, you’ll help secure the sites that make our renewable energy projects possible.

Your work will span GIS administration, contract oversight, budget tracking, and direct engagement with landowners and community groups. You’ll collaborate daily with Development and subject matter experts across the company, ensuring land acquisition efforts stay on schedule and aligned with project goals.
Team Overview The Land Acquisition team is responsible for site selection and control across Intersect’s diverse project pipeline, with a primary focus in the CAISO market. Our scope covers the full cycle of development, from early-stage strategy through to start of construction. We work closely with Development, Permitting, Engineering, Finance, Legal, and Community Engagement to ensure that projects are positioned for long-term success. Joining this team means helping deliver the real estate foundation for gigawatt-scale renewable energy projects while developing skills across negotiation, strategy, and stakeholder engagement.
