Director, International Project Management - SparkActive$205K–$250K

The opportunity

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.

What you'll do

  • Project Execution Ownership: Manage the project schedule, budget, and scope for Crusoe's international and other special project modular deployments.

  • Site Readiness: Coordinate with Crusoe and in-country subject matter experts on site preparation, permitting, and utility interconnection timelines, adapted to local codes and standards.

  • Risk Mitigation: Proactively identify bottlenecks in procurement, construction, networking, and power readiness — with an extra layer of risk for cross-border logistics, customs, and in-country political/regulatory shifts. Always have a “Plan B.”

  • Trade Compliance Partnership: Work with Crusoe Legal and Trade Compliance to navigate customs and import/export requirements for shipping GPUs, networking gear, and Spark modules across borders. Partner with Government Affairs to engage financing entities (e.g. EXIM Bank)

  • In-Country Partner Coordination: Collaborate with in-country partners to bring Crusoe’s level of execution rigor and speedo regions where Crusoe doesn't yet have an established presence.

  • Mobility & Staffing Coordination: Partner with HR on work authorization, visas, and any temporary relocation needed to keep a Crusoe presence on the ground during critical build phases.

What they're looking for

  • Product Management Interface: Feed region-specific requirements to the Spark Product Manager to inform the Spark Product Roadmap
  • Internal Connectivity: Serve as the air traffic controller between Real Estate, Legal, Finance, Manufacturing Planning, Cloud Product & Procurement, Site Design & Engineering, Construction, and the Spark Business Unit for each international or special project.
  • External Partner Coordination: Manage relationships with international contractors, suppliers, customs brokers, and local authorities.
  • Reporting: Provide high-fidelity project status updates for executives,: calling out the risks unique to operating outside the US, and coordinate with the Lead Technical Project Manager to keep these projects visible on the Spark deployments dashboard.
