What You’ll Do:

CoreWeave is seeking a Utility & Power Partnerships Lead to help build and execute our U.S. utility engagement strategy. This role will focus on day-to-day utility coordination, power access execution, and relationship development, working closely with senior leadership and cross-functional partners.

The role will serve as one of CoreWeave’s primary points of contact with electric utilities, supporting power procurement, interconnection efforts, and early engagement in new markets.

About the role:

In this role, you will support and manage ongoing relationships with U.S.- and sometimes European - electric utilities, including IOUs, cooperatives, and municipal utilities, while acting as a consistent point of contact for utility planning, large-load, and interconnection teams. In collaboration with the data center operations team, you will track timelines, requirements, and risks associated with power delivery for CoreWeave sites, support and participate in the negotiation of Electric Service Agreements (ESAs), coordinate internal review of ESA terms, and track and help standardize ESA structures and lessons learned across markets. You will also assist with evaluation and negotiation of power service options, tariffs, and commercial arrangements, support internal analysis of power costs, delivery schedules, and infrastructure requirements, and help document and standardize approaches to power procurement across markets. Partnering with data center development, engineering, legal, sustainability, and policy teams, you will help assess power feasibility for new sites, support early utility outreach in new markets, build internal processes and tracking tools, and prepare materials and updates for leadership on power risks and progress. Success in this role means utility engagements are well-coordinated, predictable, and transparent, power-related risks are identified early and clearly communicated internally, CoreWeave builds a reputation with utilities as a prepared and professional large-load customer, and power access supports, rather than slows, CoreWeave’s U.S. expansion.
