What the job involves
- Be 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
- At Crusoe, our Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) team plays a pivotal role in ensuring the reliability and performance of our infrastructure
- SRE at Crusoe is dedicated to detecting, analyzing, and preventing issues to maintain high Service Level Agreements (SLAs) through Service Level Indicators (SLIs) and Service Level Objectives (SLOs)
- Through automation and proactive remediation, our SREs resolve common errors automatically, then advise various engineering teams how to build resilient code
- We anticipate and resolve issues before they impact our customers, conduct thorough post-mortems, and drive continuous improvement
- Our customer-centric approach ensures that clients always have access to the virtual machines they depend on
- This role is crucial for maintaining the "gold standard" reliability and performance of Crusoe's AI platform
- The ideal candidate has experience in SRE practices, understanding of distributed systems, networking, Linux, and a passion for automation and problem-solving
- This is a full-time position
- Automation and Tool Development: Automate routine processes and build Crusoe’s internal infrastructure platform to enable software teams to run their services without having to understand the operating system, hardware, and network
- Collaboration and Planning: Collaborate with the team in morning stand-up meetings to discuss ongoing projects, recent incidents, and priorities for the day. Collaborate on action plans for deploying new data centers or retrofitting existing ones. Work closely with software engineers, advising on best practices for resilient code and reviewing changes before deployment
- System Monitoring and Alerting: Review overnight alerts and system performance metrics to ensure everything is running smoothly. Analyze system logs and develop tools to enhance our monitoring capabilities
- Incident Response and Problem Solving: Engage in incident response drills, post-mortems, and root cause analysis sessions to learn from past issues and prevent future ones. Resolve common errors automatically through automation and proactive remediation

- Documentation and Knowledge Sharing: Document work, share insights with the team, and plan for the next day's challenges, always with a customer-centric mindset
Our take
Methane, that is mostly generated by flaring in the oil and gas industry, is a major contributor to global warming - as are the carbon emissions produced by global computing (especially bitcoin mining.) Crusoe Energy Systems reduces flaring, and repurposes waste natural gas into energy for these processes, thus removing methane from the atmosphere and simultaneously reducing the carbon footprint of computing.
Crusoe's mobile data centers can be deployed to generate power from methane waste at its source. As well as its patented Digital Flare Mitigation system, Crusoe is also working to enable alternative revenue streams for renewable and clean energy projects, with the ultimate aim to run data centers on renewable energy.
The company has connections with Kraken Oil & Gas, Devon Energy, Enerplus, and more; and its computing power is used by institutes such as MIT. The rising pressure to take action on climate change, coupled with the need for high-energy computing as more infrastructure moves online, has placed it in a massive industry. With the capability of its systems to reduce the equivalent of 8,000 tonnes per year of CO2 and 2023 debt financing amounting to $200 million in investment, Crusoe Energy Systems is well positioned to make an impact and drive for further success.
