What you’ll do
We are seeking a Project Development Manager within Bitcoin Mining and Data Center Site Operations to support the Head of Operations at Giga Energy and help streamline operations across our Bitcoin mining infrastructure projects and global manufacturing facilities. This role is pivotal in supporting our growing portfolio of BTC mining and Data Center sites through operational analysis, on-site coordination, third-party management, and strategic project implementation.
