Hiring for power in Phoenix
Phoenix is one of the most active data center markets in the country. Utility generation build-outs, water and cooling limits and solar plus storage are reshaping what companies need from their power teams.
Work here runs through APS, SRP, TEP. Candidates who already know these organizations — their standards, processes and people — are especially valuable, and they are in high demand from developers, contractors and the utilities themselves.
GridTal recruits across West Valley, Mesa, Chandler, Goodyear and the surrounding region. We also help companies relocate experienced professionals from other markets when the local pool is thin.
