ABOUT THIS ROLE
As an Instrumentation & Controls Engineer II supporting Crusoe's modular data center platform, you will help build the control system that ships inside every module we manufacture. Modular is how Crusoe compresses the timeline from steel to compute, and that speed only holds if the controls package is repeatable, verified in the factory, and correct the first time it lands in the field. You will work alongside senior I&C engineers to develop the point lists, instrument schedules, and control system drawings that define the platform, then prove that work out on the factory floor through factory acceptance testing before a module ever leaves the building.
This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who wants to build depth in industrial controls inside a manufacturing environment rather than one-off site design. You will move between the design desk and the factory, translating standards into deliverables and then validating those deliverables against real hardware. Expect close mentorship from experienced engineers, clear ownership of your assigned deliverables, and increasing independence as your judgment develops. Denver is your home base, with estimated travel at 25% to manufacturing partners and deployment sites. This is a full-time position.
WHAT YOU'LL BE WORKING ON
- Design Deliverable Development: Develop point lists, instrument schedules, I/O assignments, and control system drawings for modular data center systems under the direction of senior I&C engineers.
- Factory Acceptance Testing: Execute and document FAT protocols on control panels and integrated modules, including point-to-point verification, loop checks, and calibration confirmation prior to shipment.
- Manufacturing Support: Partner with manufacturing on the factory floor to resolve control panel build issues, wiring discrepancies, and instrument installation questions as modules move through production.
- Platform Standardization: Contribute to the repeatable design packages, drawing templates, and test procedures that let the modular platform scale across successive builds without rework.
- Vendor and Integrator Coordination: Support technical coordination with control panel fabricators, systems integrators, and instrument suppliers on submittals, specification compliance, and open technical items.
- Field Verification and Startup Support: Conduct field walks, equipment inspections, and basic calibration verification at manufacturing and deployment sites to confirm as-built accuracy and commissioning readiness.
- Documentation Integrity: Maintain accurate as-built drawings, test records, and instrument documentation so downstream construction, commissioning, and operations teams work from a reliable source of truth.
