About Giga

Giga is building gigawatts of AI data centers to hasten a future of intelligence and abundance. We build data centers fast and at scale by combining the capabilities of an equipment supplier, engineering firm, general contractor, and real estate developer under one roof. Our team moves quickly and thinks practically. If you're ready to make an impact in an industry that matters, we're looking for people like you.

Why join Giga
  • The Pace: We're building at a speed most companies talk about but never actually operate at. If you've been bored somewhere else, you won't be here.
  • The Impact: Every person at Giga touches the work that matters. No layers, no waiting for approval chains. You'll see your fingerprints on what we ship.
  • The Team: A team of operators defining the future of AI infrastructure. We recruit A-players from the most innovative companies in the world, and they choose Giga because the work here means more.
  • The Moment: AI doesn't run without power, and that's us. Giga is the picks and shovels behind the AI revolution. This industry is about to explode, and you'll be in the room where it's already happening.
What you'll do

Giga builds data centers in towns that have never hosted one. How we talk to those communities matters as much as how we build. The Communications Manager owns Giga's community message: the single source of truth for what we say in every community we operate in, the landing pages residents find when they search us, the materials our leadership carries into town halls, and the relationship with the one local outlet covering the project.

You are not the face of Giga in the room. You're the person who makes sure everyone who is has the right message, the right materials, and a clear record of every commitment we've made. Projects owns the ground game and the relationships. You own the narrative that travels with it — and the discipline that keeps it consistent across every site at once.

This role does not cover state or federal government affairs, pre-development relationship building with county judges, commissioners, or landowners.

Where you'll work

This position is available to remote candidates in the United States.

Responsibilities
  • Own the single source of truth for community messaging: one Giga-level messaging document plus one per community, covering approved language, what we don't say, and the current Q&A.
  • Turn project decisions into internal narrative documents. When leadership and the Projects team decide what gets shared from a study or report, you translate that decision into internal messaging so every Giga employee tells the same story.
  • Build, launch, and maintain the community landing page for each site.
  • Own the community communications calendar: what goes out, where, and when, across all active sites.
  • Own the community goodwill calendar and tracker: what we've committed to, what we've delivered, and what's still outstanding.
  • Produce town hall and community meeting materials, including slides, handouts, posters, FAQs, and printed collateral.
  • Build and hold relationships with local media. Most of these towns have one outlet. You are the person that reporter knows, and you field the routine call, coordinate with our PR agency, and line up founder comment when a reporter wants it.
  • Source and execute local goodwill. Find the opportunities, pitch them to the Projects team for buy-in, then do the calling and emailing to make them happen.
  • Support community benefit agreements with drafting support, plain-language versions, and adoption into town hall materials. 
  • Support public meetings with materials, prep, and messaging. 
  • Route any reporter inquiry that escalates past routine to the Director of Content & Communications.
Requirements
  • 4+ years in communications, public affairs, corporate communications, or content marketing.
  • Exceptional writing skills, with demonstrated ability to turn technical, legal, or regulatory material into plain language a resident can read in ninety seconds.
  • Experience building messaging documents, FAQs, and Q&A that other people use without you in the room.
  • Experience producing presentation and print materials on deadline, including slides, handouts, and one-pagers.
  • Experience working with reporters, including fielding inquiries and coordinating executive comment.
  • Ability to run a content calendar and a commitments tracker across multiple simultaneous projects without anything falling through.
  • Sound judgment on sensitive community, property, legal, and reputational matters, including a clear sense of what to escalate and when.
  • Comfort working alongside technical, legal, construction, and executive teams.
  • Willingness to travel to project communities roughly 10-20% of the time.
Bonus points
  • Data center, energy, utility, or infrastructure industry experience.
  • Experience communicating in small-town or rural settings.
  • Experience managing community investment, sponsorship, or corporate giving programs.
  • Experience working alongside an outside PR agency.
  • Hands-on experience publishing in Webflow or a comparable CMS.
How We Work

We value people who take ownership, raise risks early, communicate directly, and follow through. Incomplete information is part of the job. Make the best decision you can, document it, and adjust as the facts change. Move quickly on reversible decisions and take more care when security, safety, financial, employee, or customer risk is involved.

Benefits
  • Subsidized health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Equity (options) in a rapidly growing startup
  • 401(k) with 4% employer match
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Parental leave
  • Healthcare and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA)
  • Commuter benefits, where applicable
  • Opportunities to collaborate in person at periodic team and company on-sites
