Full Job Description
About This Role:

Crusoe builds and commits significant data center capacity, power, GPU-hours, and likely other resources as the business grows, and actual usage never fully matches what's been built or contracted. This role owns the financial and economic thinking behind that gap across the business: finding where committed capacity exceeds real use, sizing what that's worth, and making the call on how much of it can be safely monetized or reclaimed without taking on too much risk.

What You'll Be Working On:
  • Identify and size opportunities where built or committed data center capacity, power, compute, or otherwise, isn't converting to revenue
  • Partner with Capacity Planning, Product Management, and deal desk or legal to understand the technical, contractual, and commercial constraints behind each opportunity
  • Translate probabilistic or technical models, built by Capacity Planning or others, into financial terms: expected value, cost of getting it wrong, and a recommended course of action
  • Make the call on how much risk to take in exploiting a given gap, and defend that call to stakeholders across engineering, product, and leadership
  • Build durable financial frameworks for opportunities once they're proven out, while still fielding live decisions on things already in motion


What You'll Bring to the Team:
  • 5+ years of experience in financial planning, corporate finance, or capital allocation, ideally somewhere capital-intensive (infrastructure, utilities, real estate, or similar) where you've weighed committed capacity or capex against risk
  • Comfort with probabilistic thinking, distributions, expected value, tail risk, enough to work with a technical model someone else built without needing to build it yourself
  • Technical curiosity to pick up unfamiliar infrastructure concepts quickly
  • SQL proficiency, or similar, to pull and validate data yourself
  • Experience partnering with Product Management on pricing or product decisions
  • Enough contract fluency to work through what's allowed under existing customer agreements
  • Comfort holding a position under pressure from stakeholders who want to move faster than the risk picture supports


Bonus Points:
  • Familiarity with GPU cloud economics
  • Knowledge of data center design and utilization metrics
  • Experience with interruptible, spot, or committed-use pricing models


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 $160,000 to $195,000 + 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.
