Company Overview

Discovery Infrastructure Group (DIG) is a data center and utility-scale power platform company raising capital to develop, build, and operate integrated data center campuses across our development pipeline. DIG’s platform combines hyperscale-grade data center capacity with Utility-Grade-Power private power generation and storage, delivering firm, clean, cost-competitive power to the world’s largest technology companies without dependence on the public grid queue. Our customers include the hyperscale and AI infrastructure operators driving the current wave of compute build-out. We are seeking a CFO with experience in Data Center Development, REITs, Hyperscaler relationships, and Mission Critical Real Estate Development.

DIG is looking for seasoned financial executive, VP of Finance, Director of Finance or above, who has operated at the intersection of data center development, real estate finance, and infrastructure capital markets. The CFO will lead the budgeting and architect of the company’s capital stack, the steward of its project-level financings, and work with institutional lenders, equity partners, and hyperscale customers. This person must understand the data center business from the inside: how Data Center REITs are capitalized, how hyperscale customers evaluate a developer, and what mission-critical real estate development requires at every stage from land control through certificate of occupancy.
