About the roleCrusoe's data center program is scaling to build out multiple 1 GW+ campuses while simultaneously integrating an ambitious energy-first approach to datacenter development.
As an Associate on the Strategy & Operations team, you will be the analytical engine that keeps the data center construction team running at full speed. You will help build the datasets, the dashboards, and the detail work that turns complex, fast-moving information into crisp, actionable insight. This high-impact role sits at the intersection of data center construction, strategy, finance, operations, and business development, working cross-functionally with internal and external stakeholders to execute on Crusoe's ambitious vision for AI digital infrastructure.
We run at "Crusoe-speed"-fast, candid, and allergic to bureaucracy. You'll thrive here if you:
Get energy from ambiguity and find order in the chaos
Sweat the details without losing sight of the big picture
Care more about getting it right than getting credit
Believe AI infrastructure is the most consequential things being built today
