Senior Product Manager, Crusoe Energy Systems

• 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
• AI and Machine Learning Infrastructure: You understand how training, fine-tuning, inference, checkpointing, and GPU-intensive workloads interact with orchestration systems
• Strong Technical Fluency: Significant experience with Kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, workload orchestration, or related technologies
• Technical Product Management Experience: Five or more years of experience owning complex technical products or infrastructure initiatives from definition through delivery and iteration
• Systems Thinking and Attention to Detail: The ability to reason through APIs, lifecycle states, failure modes, upgrades, operational workflows, and dependencies across distributed systems
• Strong Product Judgment: The ability to balance customer value, reliability, engineering cost, operational complexity, and long-term maintainability when making product decisions
• Ownership and Execution: A track record of independently driving ambiguous, cross-functional initiatives to clear decisions and high-quality outcomes
• Clear Communication and Collaboration: The ability to work closely with engineers, document decisions precisely, and create alignment across technical and nontechnical teams

Desirable

• As a Senior Product Manager for Orchestration, you will own major product areas within Crusoe’s Managed Orchestration portfolio
• Your scope will include Kubernetes cluster lifecycle, control-plane capabilities, node pools and node health, managed add-ons, workload scheduling, Slurm on Kubernetes, or the APIs and interfaces customers use to operate large-scale AI infrastructure
• You will have meaningful end-to-end ownership of the areas within your scope, from problem definition and product design through launch, validation, adoption, and continued improvement
• This is a deeply technical and hands-on product role. You will work closely with engineering to turn complex and ambiguous infrastructure problems into clear, durable product designs
• You will define detailed behavior, examine edge cases and failure modes, make thoughtful product trade-offs, and ensure that what we ship works well for customers in practice, not only in a design document
• Success in this role means raising the quality of both the product and the decisions behind it. You will combine technical depth, customer understanding, strong product judgment, and disciplined execution to build orchestration capabilities that customers can depend on for their most demanding AI workloads
• Own Major Orchestration Product Areas: Take end-to-end ownership of substantial product surfaces, including their roadmap, outcomes, priorities, quality, and continued improvement
• Develop Durable Technical Product Designs: Turn complex infrastructure problems into clear requirements and coherent system behavior, including APIs, lifecycle states, failure handling, upgrades, and customer controls
• Partner Closely With Engineering: Work directly with engineers throughout discovery, design, implementation, and validation to resolve ambiguity and shape high-quality solutions
• Establish a High Product-Quality Bar: Pressure-test designs, evaluate working software, examine edge cases and failure modes, and ensure the product is ready before broad customer release
• Understand Customers and Operators: Work with customers and internal teams to identify underlying problems and translate them into broadly useful, technically sound product improvements
• Make Disciplined Product Investments: Prioritize work based on customer value, reliability, differentiation, engineering cost, and operational burden, then measure whether those investments delivered the intended results
• Coordinate Across the Cloud Platform: Establish clear interfaces and responsibilities across infrastructure, networking, storage, identity, observability, capacity, and workload teams
• Communicate Clearly: Produce precise requirements and decision documents, and explain technical trade-offs and business implications to diverse stakeholders
