Senior External Communications Manager

The posting, as Crusoe wrote it

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

Crusoe is seeking a Sr. Manager, Communications to lead storytelling for the front lines of our business: the teams that site, power, and build Crusoe's AI factories — for ourselves and our partners — at massive scale. This role sits at the center of our Digital Infrastructure Group (DIG), Energy, and Real Estate organizations, driving the narrative around how and where we build the physical backbone of AI.

This is a fast-moving, high-stakes environment.

You'll partner closely with our Public Affairs and Government Affairs teams on community engagement, ensuring the places we build see Crusoe as a good neighbor and a serious partner.

This role requires mastery of messaging and storytelling, a "roll-up-your-sleeves" approach to execution, and a meticulous eye for detail. We are an AI-first company and are looking for a practitioner who views generative AI as a core part of their toolkit — someone who leverages modern AI agents and tools to scale their impact and sharpen their output.
