Job summary

Crusoe is seeking a People Science Consultant to partner with our People Success Partners and business leaders. You’ll transform complex workforce questions into clear, data-driven recommendations that influence talent, teams and organization design.

Embedded with PSPs across Engineering, Data Center Operations, and Manufacturing, you’ll combine quantitative analyses with interviews and qualitative feedback to explain what drives retention, engagement and performance, and to shape workforce

Qualifications

• An advanced degree in a behavioral science or quantitative field, such as I/O Psychology, Behavioral Economics, Organizational Behavior, Statistics or Economics, or a master’s degree plus substantial experience in management consulting or analytics.
• 4+ years in people analytics, management consulting or a related analytical role, including time spent advising senior leaders directly
• Solid grounding in research design and inferential statistics, so you can tell a real effect from noise and explain the difference to a skeptical executive.
• Strong Exploratory Data Analysis skills. You're comfortable getting into the data yourself to answer a question.
• Consulting skills: you can scope an unclear request, manage several stakeholders, and say no when it's the right call.
• A strong grasp of HR processes and people metrics, including where metrics mislead and need deeper analysis.
• The ability to explain complex analysis to non-technical audiences, from PSPs to senior executives.
• Hands-on experience using AI tools to speed up analysis or build lightweight tools, not just curiosity about them.
• Comfort with ambiguity and a fast pace. You'd rather deliver a useful answer this week than a perfect one next quarter.

Responsibilities

• Lead deep dives when something changes, such as a spike in turnover at a site or a drop in engagement on a team.
• Combine quantitative analysis with interviews, focus groups and open-text feedback to explain not just what is happening but why.
• Analyze org health and structure, including span of control, layers and manager ratios, and assess the people impact of reorganizations.
• Connect people data to business outcomes, such as how staffing stability affects site performance or how manager changes affect team retention.
• Help leaders set realistic people targets for attrition, spans, ramp time and hiring quality, using internal history and external benchmarks.
• Provide analysis that supports performance calibration, including rating distributions, consistency checks and fairness reviews.
• Measure whether the programs PSPs launch are moving the outcomes they were meant to move, and bring in our research partner when a program needs a rigorous evaluation.
• Join PSP and leadership forums so you understand each organization's priorities and spot people issues early.
• Turn work from the wider People Science and Workforce Intelligence team into recommendations leaders can act on, and bring real business problems back to shape the research and capability roadmap.
• Make sure PSPs and leaders know the full range of what the team can do, including the self-service tools they already have, and help them use it.
• Build data fluency across the PSP team by coaching partners to read data with confidence and use the team's tools on their own.
• Make sure conclusions are sound and clearly separate what the data show from what it suggests.
