Founding Head of Power Development — Grid & Data Centre
UK / Europe | Full-time preferred | Significant equity
General Intelligence Infrastructure is building a technology-enabled powerbank for AI infrastructure.
We use geospatial intelligence, grid data, industrial-site information, and AI-assisted imagery to identify overlooked routes to large-scale power across European industrial assets.
But finding apparent power is only the beginning.
We need the person who can tell us whether it is real.
We are looking for a senior grid/HV infrastructure professional to join the founding team and own the technical path from:
“This site may have 50MW”
to:
“This is the documented, technically credible capacity, this is what must happen to use it, this is the capex, and this is the realistic energisation date.”
You will:
- Assess industrial sites for genuine power potential
- Review connection agreements, single-line diagrams, utility correspondence, and historic electrical demand
- Understand existing and potential import capacity
- Assess substations, transmission connections, and HV infrastructure
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You do not need to be a software engineer.
You do need to be able to walk onto an unusual industrial site, interrogate the evidence, and tell us what is real.
Why GII
AI infrastructure is increasingly constrained by time-to-power.
We believe substantial electrical infrastructure built for Europe's previous industrial era can be systematically identified, validated, and redeployed for its next one.
GII is building the technology and development capability to do that at scale.
You would join at the beginning and have meaningful influence over the company, methodology, and project pipeline.
To apply
Send a short note explaining the largest or most complex grid/power project you have worked on and what you personally owned.
