Senior External Communications Manager

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.

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 dive deep into the AI infrastructure buildout — from gigawatt-scale power and site development to construction and community partnerships — and translate it into compelling stories that elevate Crusoe's work while protecting our brand. 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. What You'll Be Working On: News Engine: Drive a strategic news program that demonstrates momentum across Crusoe's data center development, energy, and real estate work — turning our buildout into a consistent cadence of high-impact moments. Media and Influencer Relations: Build and maintain direct relationships with journalists across infrastructure, energy, real estate, technology, and financial media. You must be able to pitch and place stories independently; we need a practitioner who can "hunt" and isn't solely reliant on agencies. Community & Stakeholder Engagement: Partner closely with our Public Affairs and Government Affairs teams to support community engagement in the markets where we build — ensuring local audiences, officials, and stakeholders understand Crusoe's investment and impact. Narrative Development: Partner with subject matter experts across DIG, Energy, and Real Estate to sharpen messaging — translating complex topics across site development, power, construction, and data center operations into compelling stories for a range of audiences. Thought Leadership: Work with Crusoe's bench of spokespeople to develop and place high-impact op-eds, keynote scripts, and social content that secures Crusoe's position as a leader in AI infrastructure development. Issues Management: Monitor the media and community landscape closely and coordinate timely, strategic responses to industry shifts, local dynamics, and challenges — protecting Crusoe's brand and reputation in a quickly shifting environment.
