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 As an Assembly Technician, you’ll help us build modular data centers right here in our manufacturing facility. This is a heavy-duty, hands-on role where you’ll work with a tight-knit production team to assemble modular buildings. You’ll be working with equipment to attach large parts to metal frames (up to 60 feet long), weatherproofing and sealing, and bolting components together using nuts, bolts, and fasteners.
