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

  • Drive the full hardware development and sustaining lifecycle, including: feasibility, bring-up, validation, deployment, and ongoing production support.

  • Develop and maintain scripting and automation frameworks for hardware: testing, diagnostics, and continuous reliability improvements.

  • Lead deep troubleshooting and debugging across: PCIe (link training, topology, performance issues)

  • InfiniBand (fabric debugging, throughput, connectivity issues)

  • NVMe/storage (performance bottlenecks, firmware interactions, failure analysis)

  • Conduct rigorous system validation and characterization for GPU, CPU, and high-performance compute platforms.

What they're looking for

  • Support E2E integration and solution testing to ensure Crusoe Cloud products: meet performance, reliability, and scalability expectations.
  • Collaborate with mechanical, thermal, firmware, software, and manufacturing: teams to resolve system-level issues and enable stable production operation.
  • Drive prototyping, qualification, and readiness for high-volume manufacturing: with both internal teams and external vendors.
  • Identify opportunities for new hardware technologies, testing methods, and: sustainability improvements aligned with Crusoe’s long-term objectives.
