About Nebius
Nebius is leading a new era in cloud infrastructure for the global AI economy. We are building a full-stack AI cloud platform that supports developers and enterprises from data and model training through to production deployment, without the cost and complexity of building large in-house AI/ML infrastructure.

Listed on Nasdaq (NBIS) and headquartered in Amsterdam, we have a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, the UK, the Americas and Israel. Our team of 1,500+ includes hundreds of engineers with deep expertise across hardware, software and AI R&D.
The Infrastructure Acquisition Group
The Infrastructure Acquisition Group secures the land, power, and data center capacity that enables the Nebius AI Cloud. We identify where Nebius should grow next, structure the commercial agreements that make that growth possible, and partner across engineering, energy, finance, legal, and development to bring new AI infrastructure online.
We're a small, founding team building this function from the ground up across the Americas, leading the acquisition of colocation, build-to-suit, powered land, and other strategic infrastructure opportunities as one of the world's fastest-growing AI cloud platforms scales.
Examples of Problems We're Solving
Secure AI infrastructure before the market does. Demand for AI infrastructure continues to outpace supply. You'll identify and secure strategic opportunities before they become unavailable while balancing speed, scale, risk, and long-term flexibility.
Expand the Nebius AI Cloud across the Americas. You'll evaluate emerging markets, develop regional acquisition strategies, and help shape where Nebius invests next as we scale across multiple geographies simultaneously.
Structure transactions that accelerate deployment. You'll negotiate colocation agreements, build-to-suit developments, powered land acquisitions, and other infrastructure partnerships that enable AI capacity to come online faster.
About the Role
As a Site Selection Manager, you'll lead the acquisition of AI infrastructure opportunities across the Americas from market strategy through executed agreements. Working within the Infrastructure Acquisition Group, you'll identify new opportunities, negotiate complex transactions, and partner across Engineering, Energy, Finance, Legal, Technical Due Diligence, Project Development, and Delivery to bring new AI infrastructure online.
This is a build-phase role on a build-phase team. Many of the standards, playbooks, and processes you'll use are still being written—in some cases, you'll help write them. We're looking for someone who can independently lead complex transactions while helping build the systems that make every future deal faster, more consistent, and more scalable.
What You'll Own
• Own the acquisition of AI infrastructure opportunities across the Americas, from market strategy through executed agreements.
• Develop regional acquisition strategies and maintain a continuous pipeline of qualified colocation, build-to-suit, and powered land opportunities.
• Lead negotiations across multiple commercial structures, from initial engagement through signed agreements.
• Serve as transaction owner, leading cross-functional deal teams to keep parallel workstreams aligned and on schedule.
• Prepare investment recommendations and present commercial, financial, and strategic analyses to executive leadership.
Infrastructure Origination
• Develop acquisition strategies for priority markets across the Americas.
• Identify, evaluate, and advance colocation, build-to-suit, powered land, and other strategic infrastructure opportunities.
• Build and maintain relationships with developers, brokers, utilities, landowners, economic development agencies, and infrastructure partners.
• Assess network connectivity as a core site-selection criterion — long-haul access, carrier availability, and route diversity — engaging the Network team for technical validation.
• Lead negotiations from initial engagement through exe
