Job description

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.

• Develop and maintain detailed event metrics and reports, and propose improvements for future events.
• Establish scalable event processes, templates, and best practices to ensure repeatable, high-quality execution as the company and event volume grow.

What You'll Bring to the Team:

• 7-10 years of experience in event marketing or program management, preferably within a high-growth high-tech environment.
• Proven track record of managing and executing complex events, from high-touch executive programs to community engagement.
• Exceptional organizational, project management, and attention-to-detail skills, with a structured approach to problem-solving.
• Strong understanding of event logistics, contract negotiation, vendor management, and budget administration.
• Strong program management capabilities, including the ability to influence and drive alignment among diverse cross-functional stakeholders (e.g., sales, marketing, legal).
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, comfortable interacting with internal executives and external partners.
• Proficiency with event management software (e.g., Luma) and CRM systems (e.g., Salesforce).
