Manager, Power Distribution Programs (MFG)

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: Join our team as the Manager of Power Distribution Programs and take ownership of the project management function for our entire Switchboards & Switchgear sector — low voltage, medium voltage, skid integration, and custom switchboard assemblies. You will own portfolio delivery performance, margin, and the development of the project management team beneath you. Power Distribution is the highest-volume manufacturing sector in the business and the one under the most acute growth pressure. Hyperscale demand for switchgear and PDC-mounted distribution is outrunning conventional lead times, and the sector is simultaneously expanding into medium voltage. This role must deliver current commitments while building the management structure to absorb what is coming. This is a working leadership role. You'll manage project managers, own the portfolio, and personally carry the most sensitive customer programs. Your work directly impacts our ability to energize compute from sustainable, renewable and/or stranded energy sources. We are seeking an experienced people leader with a proven background in electrical equipment or comparable ETO manufacturing, a strategic mindset, and the operational discipline to scale through rapid growth. This is a full-time position. (#INDMFG) What You’ll Be Working On: Power Distribution Portfolio Ownership: Own the consolidated schedule across LV switchboard, MV switchgear, MV PDC, and skid integration programs.

Leadership and Mentorship: Lead and develop a team of project managers, setting the standard for schedule discipline, submittal management, change capture, cost accuracy, and customer communication. Customer and Stakeholder Management: Serve as senior escalation for Power Distribution customers, including executive-level schedule impact, change negotiation, and recovery planning. Capacity and Production Planning: Partner with plant leadership on capacity and line loading across switchboard and switchgear assembly areas; drive resolution of throughput constraints. Program Economics and Target Accountability: Set the margin and cost targets for each Power Distribution program at baseline, and own delivery against them through close-out. Partner with Project Controls in a standing monthly economics review where you jointly validate the cost-to-complete position — Project Controls owns the model, you own the operational assumptions inside it: labor hours remaining, change order capture, submittal and schedule position, and long-lead material exposure. Sign the forecast you submit. When a program drifts off target, bring the variance, the root cause, and a recovery plan to the same review rather than waiting for it to surface in the roll-up. Submittal Performance Governance: Govern submittal and drawing approval
