About the role
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 this Role: Crusoe Cloud is seeking a high-energy, detail-oriented Staff Network Deployment Engineer to lead the physical and logical implementation of our lab research and integration lab. This role is focused on the deployment, management, advanced diagnosis, maintenance, and repair of high-performance networks for GPU compute clusters. As we rapidly expand our footprint of high-performance compute (HPC) and GPU-based AI infrastructure, you will be the primary driver behind performing new product integration for network tools. This is a technical, hands-on role that sits at the intersection of Network Engineering, Data Center Operations, and Project Management. The ideal candidate will be hands-on with network level troubleshooting and will work closely with data center operations, engineering, and vendors to support cutting-edge network infrastructure to support the latest NVIDIA and AMD GPUs. This position plays a critical role in supporting Crusoe’s new product integration, research and experimentation efforts. What You’ll Be Working On: Execute new product build-outs: Lead the end-to-end deployment of network infrastructure for our Crusoe lab. Bridge Design and Reality: Take high-level designs from the Network Development team and translate them into implementation plans, cable maps, and configuration templates. Validate new equipment: Perform rigorous "Burn-in" testing acceptance testing (SAT) for new network clusters. Support optimizing deployment automation: Use Python, Ansible, and ZTP (Zero Touch Provisioning) to automate the staging and configuration of network devices. Lab management: Work with remote hands, cabling vendors, and to ensure physical layer standards (fiber paths, power
