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 at Crusoe. About the Role: Join Crusoe's Finance team, reporting to the SVP, Finance, and serve as the dedicated Finance Business Partner to Crusoe's Digital Infrastructure Group (DIG). DIG spans infrastructure, real estate, and power — sourcing, structuring, and executing the deals that shape Crusoe's data center platform. You will sit at the center of that activity, providing the financial modeling, deal analytics, and capital discipline that turn ambitious real estate, power, and JV opportunities into bankable, board-ready decisions. This is a high-visibility role at the intersection of corporate finance, deal structuring, and capacity planning. You'll partner directly with DIG leadership on everything from single-site economics to multi-billion dollar campus commitments, while also building the long-range financial view of Crusoe's digital infrastructure buildout. This role will grow a team of analysts and managers over time, but will begin as a hands-on contributor who is directly in the model, in the data room, and in the room where capital decisions get made.
