Staff Project Manager

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 This Role:

Join our team as a Staff Project Manager and take ownership of planning, organizing, and executing Engineered to Order (ETO) Modular Data Center Building projects with precision and efficiency. You will be the conduit for converting complex customer requirements to actionable, attainable scope while collaborating with in-house engineering and manufacturing experts.

You'll be the champion of managing customer expectations, coordinating manufacturing activities on innovative designs that need to adhere to strict specifications, code and safety standards. Spark L is our highest-content, highest-visibility modular configuration — the customer will be in our building, at our FAT bay, and on our weekly call. Your ability to communicate effectively and lead cross-functional teams will be crucial in driving projects to successful completion.

Your work directly impacts our ability to deploy modular data center buildings to compute from sustainable, renewable and/or stranded energy sources.

We are seeking a deeply experienced professional with a proven background in construction, engineering, and/or manufacturing, a strategic mindset, and an unwavering passion for innovative design/build project leadership. This is a full-time position.

What You’ll Be Working On:

- Project Planning and Execution: Define clear project goals, develop strategic plans, financial budgets and manage timelines to ensure on-time and within-budget delivery from concept engineering through delivery of finished products to site.

- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with estimating, engineering, procurement, production, and accounting teams to align project deliverables and proactively mitigate risk.

- Customer and Stakeholder Management: Develop and maintain customer relationships while managing change and holding stakeholders accountable. You are the scope control expert and stakeholders are aware of impacts for each one of their decisions and lack of timely decisions. You are also the go-to person when the customer needs a problem resolved.

- Profitability — Estimate vs. Actual: Own the estimate-versus-actual cost position on your projects. Track where production is landing against what was quoted, hold compliance to the cost baseline, and surface drift while there is still time to act on it.

- Out-of-Scope Cost Capture: Make sure every ECO/ECN is costed and recovered by Crusoe Industries. Scope that ships unbilled is margin given away, and capture is your responsibility, not Accounting’s.

- Budget Reporting and Forecasting: Take complex projects and break them down …
