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.

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:
Crusoe is building the infrastructure layer that powers the most demanding AI workloads on the planet. Our storage stack is what keeps tens of thousands of GPUs fed with data, whether that means block volumes for fast bootups, a shared file system for a training cluster, or the object storage tier a physical AI customer depends on.
The Cloud Storage team at Crusoe is seeking a Staff TPM to serve as the main execution driver for our most impactful, cross-team programs. You will be a multiplier, responsible for executing the Product and Engineering strategy, create scalable processes, and allow the team to execute predictably.

- Cross-functional alignment across IaaS, Cloud Foundations, Data Center Operations, and external storage providers.
- Proactive risk identification across programs and vendor timelines.
- Lightweight, scalable TPM frameworks suited to Crusoe's pace; real-time execution dashboards and crisp, data-driven executive updates.
