    A bit about us:


    Our client is developing one of the most ambitious integrated energy campuses in North America — an 11 GW multi-modal generation platform designed to support next-generation industrial and computing infrastructure.


    This campus integrates gas-fired generation, nuclear monitoring interfaces, hypergrid architecture, cybersecurity systems, water treatment, hybrid cooling infrastructure, and AI-enabled operational intelligence into a single, unified ecosystem.


    At the center of this effort is the Centralized Command & Control Facility (C3F) — the operational brain of the entire campus.

    This facility will provide real-time monitoring, control, security, optimization, and future AI-enabled operational analytics across all generation and infrastructure assets.

    This is not an incremental expansion of existing infrastructure. It is a first-of-its-kind build, designed from the ground up.

    Why join us?

    • Build Something That Does Not Yet Exist


    The C3F is not a retrofit or upgrade — it is a greenfield opportunity to architect and deliver an integrated command-and-control environment at gigawatt scale.


    • Architect the Operational Brain of an 11 GW Campus

    You will define the control system architecture that integrates DCS, SCADA, BMS, OT/IT systems, cybersecurity, physical security, and advanced analytics into a unified platform.


    • Mission-Critical Impact
    This role directly influences safe, reliable, and accelerated execution of a multi-billion-dollar infrastructure platform.

    • Executive Visibility & Influence

    You will work directly with senior engineering leadership and executive stakeholders, reporting progress on schedule, cost, risk, and system readiness.


    • Compensation & Leadership Scope

    Target base range:
    $225,000 – $300,000+ depending on experience
    Performance incentives aligned to project delivery milestones
    Relocation support available

    High-autonomy leadership role in a technically ambitious environment

    This is a legacy-defining opportunity for a leader who wants ownership, speed, and scale.

    Job Details


    The Project Director – Automation & Control is responsible for full lifecycle delivery of the Centralized Command & Control Facility (C3F).

    This mission-critical facility will serve as the operational intelligence hub for an integrated 11 GW energy campus.

    This role is not a traditional project director position.

    It requires a senior technical leader with deep experience in industrial automation, integrated control systems, power generation environments, system verification and validation, and commissioning.

    Extreme ownership, systems thinking, and the ability to execute in a fast-paced build environment are essential.

    Key Responsibilities
    End-to-End Ownership
    Lead full lifecycle delivery of the C3F from architecture through commissioning and operational readiness
    Own schedule, cost, risk, and execution performance reporting to executive leadership
    Control System Architecture
    Define and implement integrated control architecture across DCS, SCADA, BMS, OT/IT, and security platforms
    Ensure secure, reliable, and scalable control across generation and infrastructure assets
    System Integration & Commissioning
    Oversee multidisciplinary integration across EPCs, OEMs, system integrators, and technology partners
    Lead verification, validation, commissioning, and handover to operations
    Establish rigorous system testing and performance standards
    Integrated Infrastructure Oversight

    Enable centralized monitoring and control of:
    Gas-fired generation assets
    Nuclear monitoring interfaces
    Hypergrid infrastructure
    Cybersecurity and physical security systems
    Water treatment facilities
    Hybrid cooling systems
    Future-Ready Data & AI Enablement
    Architect AI-ready data pipelines and operational analytics frameworks
    Support predictive optimization and long-term digital transformation initiatives

    Execution Excellence
    Drive accelerated delivery while maintaining safety, quality, and regulatory rigor
    Operate effectively in a startup-oriented, high-accountability culture

    Required Qualifications
    Bachelor's degree in Engineering or related technical discipline
    20+ years of experience in industrial automation, control systems, or instrumentation & controls delivery
    Demonstrated leadership delivering large-scale, mission-critical control environments
    Deep expertise in DCS/SCADA architecture, system integration, and commissioning
    Strong understanding of industrial cybersecurity and OT/IT convergence

    Key Attributes
    Extreme ownership and accountability
    Exceptional attention to detail
    Strong systems-thinking mindset
    Comfortable operating in high-growth, fast-paced environments
    Innovative, pragmatic, results-driven leadership style
