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:

Crusoe is looking for a highly skilled and experienced Manager, Technical Accounting to lead our technical accounting research, provide financial reporting oversight, and formulate and implement company-wide accounting policies. As Crusoe scales and takes on increasingly complex financings, partnerships, and international operations, this role is the Company's subject matter expert on how those transactions are accounted for — analyzing new and unique deals for appropriate treatment and ensuring compliance with US GAAP and SEC regulations.

In this role, you will contribute to the preparation and review of the Company's external quarterly and annual financial statements, author the MD&A, drive the adoption of new accounting standards, and act as a strategic partner to internal business units and the primary liaison for external auditors on complex accounting positions. The ideal candidate is a licensed CPA with deep technical expertise, strong research and writing skills, and the ability to translate complex accounting concepts for non-financial stakeholders. This is a full-time, exempt position.

• Complex Transaction Analysis — Lead the research and evaluation of complex transactions, including debt/equity transactions, consolidation, lease accounting, revenue recognition, and other topics.
• Technical Documentation & Leadership Communication — Prepare clear, comprehensive technical accounting memoranda documenting the Company's conclusions and compliance under US GAAP, and present the related accounting considerations to leadership.
• SEC Financial Statements & Footnotes — Prepare and review aspects of the Company's quarterly financial statements and footnotes in compliance with SEC reporting requirements.
• MD&A Authorship — Author the Management's Discussion and Analysis section to ensure clear, accurate narratives of financial results and trends.
• Global Accounting Policy — Formulate global accounting policies and assist with the implementation of those policies across the organization.
• New Standards Adoption — Monitor, analyze, and interpret new accounting pronouncements from the FASB, SEC, and other regulatory bodies to assess their impact on financial reporting, and drive the planning and implementation of new standards.
• External Audit Partnership — Coordinate and engage with external auditors on the review of technical accounting positions, consolidated financial statements, and new accounting standards.
• Internal Control Environment — Support the maintenance of a strong internal control environment (SOX compliance) over technical accounting and financial reporting processes.

What You'll Bring to the Team:

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting required.
• Certified Public Accountant (CPA) certification required.
• Six or more years of total accounting and audit experience.
• Deep technical accounting expertise in US GAAP, SEC reporting regulations, and SOX internal control frameworks.
• Strong analytical, research, and writing skills, with a proven ability to communicate complex accounting concepts to non-financial stakeholders.
• Strong critical and analytical thinking skills, with the ability to identify issues and develop and implement practical solutions.
• Ability to effectively manage multiple projects in a deadline-oriented environment.

Bonus Points:

• Experience at a large public accounting firm (National Office or technical accounting group) or with a large corporate filer.
• Direct experience drafting MD&A or other SEC narrative disclosures.
• Experience leading the implementation of a major new accounting standard (e.g., ASC 842, ASC 606).
• Familiarity with accounting for project finance, joint ventures, or other capital-intensive structures.
• Industry experience in energy, infrastructure, or data centers.
