Data Center Owners & Developers

Data Centers are the foundation of the digital world.

Every major cloud platform, AI model, and enterprise system depends on high-quality, efficiently developed data center infrastructure. Across the US, demand has never been higher.

As hyperscalers, colocation providers, and private developers accelerate their expansion, the pressure is on to secure the talent that shapes the entire lifecycle: site selection, development, design, power strategy, and long-term asset performance.

At Amicus, we partner with leading owner-side organizations to connect them with the specialists who plan, design, and develop mission-critical facilities.

Whether you're entering a new market, scaling your portfolio, or building out a high-performing development function, our team is here to help you make it happen.

Building a World-Class Development Team Isn’t Easy

If you’re developing data centers in the US, you already know the environment is… competitive (to put it nicely).

Land is scarce, power is political, timelines are compressed, and the industry is growing faster than the talent pool.

Challenges you’ll face:

Land & power constraints – great sites are hard to find, and power even harder

Talent shortages – experienced development and design professionals are in high demand

Fierce market competition – hyperscalers, colos, and private equity all want the same people

Evolving standards – sustainability, density, and efficiency targets move constantly

Cross-functional alignment – development, design, legal, and commercial must operate as one

In this landscape, access to candidates isn’t enough, you need a strategy that aligns talent with your growth plan.

The organizations winning today are the ones that define their mission clearly, hire proactively, and create structures where specialists can actually drive impact.
