Remote Computer Networking Jobs in Hurricane, WV

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. Intersect develops, constructs, and operates the most ambitious power and data center infrastructure in the country by co-locating industrial demand with dedicated gas and renewable power generation.

Intersect was acquired by Google in March 2026 and operates as an independent subsidiary. We are developing and constructing multiple gigawatts of energy and data center projects in the U.S., enabling more data center and generation capacity to come online faster. We’re on an aggressive growth trajectory and looking for people hungry to tackle the largest energy challenges on the planet.

Location & Team Gatherings

Intersect has been a fully flexible workplace since its founding in 2016.  We’ve been very intentional about the way we do things. We are not work-from-home, hybrid, or in-office - we are any and all of those options! Deepening social connections and offering shared experiences is a cornerstone of the way we work. We connect as a team at our Team Week experiences four times a year and at our recently established Hub locations - SF Bay Area, NYC Metro Area, NY; Denver, CO; Austin, TX; Calgary, AB; and Toronto, ON.

We are currently looking for candidates located within 60 miles of any of the listed hubs to foster more in-person connections while maintaining our flexible remote culture.

About This Role

As part of Intersect’s Engineering team, you’ll design and secure the communications backbone that enables utility-scale clean energy facilities to operate safely, reliably, and in full compliance within ERCOT. This role is central to delivering standardized, scalable SCADA networking architecture across solar, wind, and BESS projects while ensuring seamless integration with ISO and owner platforms.

You’ll lead complex telemetry and control system integration efforts—from design through commissioning—while strengthening cybersecurity controls aligned with NERC CIP and internal standards. Your expertise will directly influence fleet-wide standards, long-term infrastructure reliability, and operational excellence across Intersect’s growing portfolio.

This role is planned to start in mid-Q1, with a four-week training period to reach full productivity by mid-Q2.
