Position: Senior Staff Technical Project Manager - Spark Deployment
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 ut the Role:

The "Spark" modular data center is Crusoe’s answer to congested grid queues and labor bottlenecks, enabling rapid deployment of compute capacity. To meet our ambitious deployment goals through 2030, we need world-class hardware product development and new product introduction (NPI) execution. We are seeking a Hardware Technical Project Manager to own the new product development process for Spark. You will be responsible for the end-to-end hardware development lifecycle, from scoping and planning, to the detailed design through First-Of-A-Kind builds.

This role will be based out of our Denver office in Cherry Creek, with frequent travel to our Brighton, CO manufacturing facility and infrequent travel (less than 10%) to other sites as  this role, “hardware” and “product” refer to the physical Spark modules: structural steel frames, power and cooling distribution, control systems, and fire & life safety infrastructure. You support the Spark program by ensuring the product design team delivers what manufacturing needs for prototypes and first-of-a-kind (FOAK) builds, coordinating drawing sets and schedules across internal teams and external partners.

You will partner closely with Cloud Product, the team that owns the compute architecture: servers, GPUs, storage, networking, and rack specifications.

What You'll Be Working On:

New Product Development Project Management:
Manage the schedule, budget, and scope for Spark design programs - new product generations, incremental upgrades, or sub-assembly work streams - from concept to mass production, including driving the Design-to-BoM process with respective stakeholders.

Requirements Management:
Synthesize inputs from a large cross-functional team to capture engineering/design requirements and drive product-level decision making in partnership with product managers and design leads.

New Product Introduction:
Partner with Crusoe’s manufacturing team to ensure the Spark can be produced reliably ve consensus on configuration management, rev control, and the myriad of details required to take a design from CAD to the shop floor.

Risk Mitigation:
Foster a culture of proactive risk identification and mitigation.

Phase Gate Rigor:
Collaborate with the Spark Business Unit to bring phase gate rigor to our development projects, plan and host key milestone reviews. Meticulously record lessons learned and identify opportunities for continuous process improvement.

Cross-Functional Orchestration Internal Connectivity:
Serve as the connective tissue between the diverse set of internal and external stakeholders…
