About the role
The Head of Power & Infrastructure will own how Fortitude secures, structures, and develops power-backed sites. You will find the land, negotiate with utilities and landowners, and lead acquisitions from first conversation through close. In a dual function, you will also lead the day-to-day power strategy. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who knows power markets well and is equally comfortable at a county meeting, in a utility negotiation, or at a substation fence line.

- Track record of structuring and closing deals with utilities, such as power purchase agreements, interconnection agreements, or large-load service arrangements
- Experience acquiring land or real assets, ideally near substations or other grid infrastructure
- Proven ability to build trust with landowners, local officials, and rural communities
