Meta is seeking an experienced, organized and self-motivated individual to support the tracking, analysis, and engagement in electric utility regulatory proceedings in jurisdictions where Meta has existing data centers or is considering developing new data centers.
In this role, you will be a key contributor to Meta's energy team, specifically supporting Meta's technical participation in regulatory dockets and utility stakeholder processes at state public utilities commissions or regional transmission organizations on issues related to reliability, interconnection process, energy rates, new tariffs, access for customers to secure clean and renewable energy, or long term utility resource planning.
Your responsibilities will include: reviewing, monitoring, and tracking regulatory proceedings, evaluating and documenting impacts of various electric utility proposals on Meta's operations, and supporting the development and mobilization of Meta's external engagement strategies. In this role you will work closely with a cross functional team including members of Meta's energy, legal, site development, and policy organizations.
