Equipment Procurement MBA Intern

We’re a team of friends bound together by a mission to preserve our planet for future generations through innovative energy solutions and modern infrastructure.

After close, we’ll continue doing exactly what we were built to do - develop, construct, and operate the most ambitious power and data infrastructure in the country.

Intersect’s operations will remain separate from Alphabet and Google under the Intersect brand. We’re on an aggressive growth trajectory and looking for people hungry to tackle the largest energy challenges on the planet.
