Crusoe is on a mission to accelerate the abundance of energy and intelligence. As the only vertically integrated AI infrastructure company built from the ground up, we own and operate each layer of the stack — from electrons to tokens — to power the world's most ambitious AI workloads. When you join Crusoe, you join a team that is building the future, faster. We're in the midst of the greatest industrial revolution of our time. The demand for AI compute is boundless, and power is a bottleneck. We're solving that — with an energy-first approach that makes AI infrastructure better for the world and faster for the people innovating with AI. We're looking for problem-solving, opportunity-finding teammates with a sense of urgency, who believe in the scale of our ambition and thrive on a path not fully paved — people who want to grow their careers alongside a team of experts across energy, manufacturing, data center construction, and cloud services. If you want to do the most meaningful work of your career, help our customers and partners advance their AI strategies, and be part of a high-performing team that believes in each other, come build with us at Crusoe. About the Role: Strategic initiatives at Crusoe are large, cross-functional programs that span manufacturing, supply chain, systems, construction, and finance. They do not fit neatly inside any single function and are nested in the office of the Chief Strategy Officer. This role exists to make those programs run smoothly. You will embed directly in active initiatives, owning the analytical and operational infrastructure that keeps complex work on track. That means building the models, running the numbers, maintaining the schedule, and making sure decision-makers have what they need when they need it. You will work across functions and levels — from operators on the factory floor to engineers and board-level sponsors — and you will have the opportunity to operate with the judgment and initiative of someone several years senior. This is a high-leverage execution role for someone who wants to be close to the hardest operational problems in the company. What You'll Be Working On: * Program infrastructure: Own the master schedule, workstream tracking, and weekly status reporting across active initiatives. Identify risks and schedule slippage before they surface as surprises. * Quantitative modeling: Build and maintain capacity models, unit economics analyses, scenario plans, and operational forecasts in Excel. The expectation is that you build rigorous models from scratch, not maintain existing ones. * Supply chain and operations analysis: Support inventory planning, component lead time tracking, forward-buying models, and MRP inputs on programs where those systems are not yet fully standing. * Decision support: When a question needs a number — build vs. buy, headcount ramp, cost delta, throughput sensitivity — you produce a clean, well-reasoned answer, not a framework for thinking about it. * Meeting and cadence operations: Own agendas, decision logs, and action item tracking across program cadences. Make recurring meetings earn their time. * Cross-functional coordination: Serve as a connective tissue across engineering, supply chain, construction, and finance workstreams. Translate between functions, flag misalignment early, and keep things moving. What You'll Bring to the Team: * 4–6 years of experience in manufacturing operations, supply chain, industrial engineering, or prior roles with a heavy operational focus * Demonstrated ability to build rigorous spreadsheet models from scratch * Exposure to manufacturing or supply chain scaling — you have seen what breaks when low-volume operations try to become high-volume ones * Comfort operating in ambiguous, fast-moving operational environments where the process is being built in parallel with the work * Strong written communication — you will draft program updates, decision memos, and materials that go to senior leadership including the C-Suite and board-level sponsors * Comfort using AI tools and be accountable for accurate results/reporting – trust but verify Bonus Points * Experience with ERP/MRP systems, value stream mapping, or lean manufacturing tools What This Is Not: * This is not a role for someone who wants to specialize deeply in one function. In special projects, you will touch factory design, supply chain, systems, construction & finance- all in the same week. * It is not a role that comes with a fully defined scope — the nature of strategic initiatives means the work evolves, and you need to connect the dots before the picture is complete. * It is not a remote role, 5 days in office with a reasonable amount of travel. * Not a desk job, you are expected to be boots on the ground, get your hands dirty Who you will work with: Program leads, manufacturing and design engineers, supply chain leadership, construction and site management, embedded VC/PE investor operations teams, and executive sponsors. Reporting: Sr. Manager Strategic Initiatives Benefits: * Competitive compensation and equity packages * Restricted Stock Units * Paid time off, paid holidays & leave of absence programs * Comprehensive health, dental & vision insurance * Employer contributions to HSA account * Paid parental leave * Paid life insurance, short-term and long-term disability * Professional development & tuition reimbursement * Mental health & wellness support * Commuter benefits (parking & transit) * Cell phone stipend * 401(k) Retirement plan with company match up to 4% of salary * Volunteer time off * Global travel insurance & emergency assistance * Daily meals allowance * Additional perks & programs specific to location Compensation Range Compensation will be paid in the range of up to $125,000 - $150,000 + Bonus. Restricted Stock Units are included in all offers. Compensation to be determined by the applicant's knowledge, education, and abilities, as well as internal equity and alignment with market data.
