Crusoe's mission is to accelerate the abundance of energy and intelligence. We’re crafting the engine that powers a world where people can create ambitiously with AI — without sacrificing scale, speed, or sustainability.

Be a part of the AI revolution with sustainable technology at Crusoe. Here, you'll drive meaningful innovation, make a tangible impact, and join a team that’s setting the pace for responsible, transformative cloud infrastructure.

About This Role:

As the Data Center Deployment Engineer, you will be the primary architect of Crusoe’s operational computing environments. You will bridge the gap between heavy infrastructure and high-performance computing by designing the "whitespace"- the critical area where our servers, storage, and network equipment live. Your work is fundamental to Crusoe’s mission of aligning the future of computing with the future of the climate; by optimizing power distribution, cooling, and equipment density, you directly enable the scalability and energy efficiency of our sustainable cloud platform.

You will join a bold, collaborative team where you will lead the planning and implementation of high-density layouts and modular infrastructure. The ideal candidate is a technical problem-solver who thrives in the intersection of mechanical, electrical, and network engineering. This is a full-time position designed for an innovative engineer who wants to build the physical foundation of an ethical and sustainable digital world.

What You’ll Be Working On:

Whitespace Design & Planning: Architect comprehensive whitespace layouts, including rack placement and aisle configurations, to maximize equipment density while maintaining optimal airflow and accessibility.
Infrastructure Integration: Partner with Electrical and Mechanical teams to seamlessly integrate power delivery and cooling systems into the whitespace, ensuring robust support for high-performance cloud workloads.
Capacity & Growth Modeling: Develop sophisticated 3D models and capacity planning tools to project future utilization, ensuring our data centers remain scalable and redundant (N+1, 2N).
Connectivity Strategy: Coordinate with Network and Cloud teams to design and implement structured cabling and fiber management systems that meet rigorous performance and low-latency requirements.
Cross-Functional Leadership: Participate in design reviews and risk assessments, providing technical guidance to internal stakeholders and external contractors during construction and commissioning phases.
Compliance & Excellence: Enforce industry standards (TIA-942, ASHRAE) and local building codes to ensure every design is safe, compliant, and performs to the highest reliability standards.
Technical Documentation: Produce and maintain high-fidelity CAD/BIM drawings and schematics that serve as the definitive source for operations, maintenance, and auditing.
Continuous Innovation: Evaluate emerging modular technologies and design methodologies to relentlessly improve energy efficiency and site performance.

What You’ll Bring to the Team:

Engineering Foundation: A Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Facilities, or Data Center Engineering.
Industry Expertise: At least 5+ years of experience in data center design, with a proven track record in cloud-scale or hyperscale environments.
Technical Proficiency: Advanced skills in CAD/BIM software (AutoCAD, Revit, Visio, or equivalent) to create precise architectural and engineering schematics.
Infrastructure Mastery: Deep technical knowledge of data center power distribution, UPS systems, HVAC/cooling systems, and structured cabling.
Standards Knowledge: A firm grasp of industry-standard frameworks, specifically TIA-942, Uptime Institute, ASHRAE, and ANSI/BICSI.
Collaborative Mindset: Exceptional communication skills and the ability to drive results within cross-functional teams while managing multiple complex projects simultaneously.
Field Readiness: A willingness and ability to travel to data center sites to oversee implementation and conduct site inspections.

Bonus Points:

Advanced Hyperscale Experience: Prior experience specifically designing for ultra-high-density liquid cooling or modular data center deployments.
Professional Certifications: Possession of a Registered Communications Distribution Designer (RCDD) or Certified Data Center Design Professional (CDCP) credential.
Sustainability Focus: Experience implementing LEED-certified or carbon-neutral data center cooling and power strategies.
Advanced Modeling Skills: Experience with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling to analyze and optimize airflow within the whitespace.
Leadership Tenure: Experience mentoring junior engineers or leading external vendor teams through complex infrastructure build-outs.

Benefits:

Crusoe also offers a competitive benefits package designed to support financial security, health, and overall well-being, including pension contributions, private health and dental insurance, income protection, life assurance and more.

Compensation:

Compensation will be paid as salary or hourly. Compensation to be determined by the applicant’s education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities, as well as internal equity and alignment with market data.
