## Job description

## ABOUT HUT 8

Imagine the ultimate destination for those who want to work at the cutting edge of technology, energy, and infrastructure. Hut 8 is on a mission to build and operate some of the world’s largest data centers for next-generation computing workloads, including AI, Colocation, Cloud, and Bitcoin Mining. We are proud to offer interesting and challenging opportunities for individuals who want to build teams, solve problems, and make an impact from day one. If you’re an ambitious individual looking for a career that is as rewarding as it is challenging, you’ve come to the right place.

## ABOUT THE ROLE

The Logistics & Expediting Manager owns inbound logistics, freight, and delivery scheduling for major equipment on Hut 8's data center builds - and expedites the critical-path items that decide whether we energize on time. Transformers, switchgear, generators, and chillers are the longest levers in the schedule; this role makes sure they show up when the site needs them, intact, with no surprises.

Some of the key responsibilities you should expect are the following:

Logistics Planning & Heavy Haul

Own the inbound logistics plan for major equipment: transformers, MV/LV switchgear, generators, chillers, CDUs, and UPS systems. Plan heavy-haul routing and permits, escort and police coordination, bridge/road studies where needed, rigging and offload interfaces, and site delivery windows aligned to crane and laydown availability.

Vendor Expediting

Run structured expediting on critical-path POs: factory production milestone tracking, in-person or third-party factory visits, FAT scheduling coordination, and ship-date protection. Provide early warning the moment a vendor date is at risk - with a recovery option, not just the bad news.

Freight & Carrier Management

Select and manage freight forwarders, carriers, and heavy-haul specialists. Manage freight terms, insurance requirements, and OS&D claims; handle customs brokerage and import compliance for international equipment where applicable.

Delivery Scheduling & Site Coordination

Maintain the rolling delivery lookahead with the Materials Manager, superintendents, and planner/scheduler. Sequence deliveries against installation need dates and site constraints, and referee conflicts when multiple critical loads compete for the same window.

Issue Resolution

Resolve shipping damage, shortage, mis-delivery, and storage-in-transit issues fast, with clean documentation supporting claims and vendor accountability.

Reporting & Process

Report logistics status, risks, and expediting actions into the weekly project rhythm. Build Hut 8's logistics playbook: preferred carriers, routing lessons, and delivery requirements baked into future POs.

## ABOUT YOU

- What we're looking for:
- 6+ years in project logistics, traffic, or expediting for major capital projects - data center, power generation, oil & gas, or heavy industrial.
- Hands-on heavy-haul experience: permits, routing studies, escorts, and rigging interfaces for loads in the 100k-500k+ lb class.
- Vendor expediting depth: factory milestone tracking, FAT logistics, and holding OEMs accountable to ship dates.
- Freight commercial fluency: Incoterms, carrier contracts, cargo insurance, and claims.
- Customs/import experience for international equipment a plus.
- Strong scheduling instincts and comfort working directly against a P6-driven need-date list.
- Calm, solution-first operator when a load is stuck, damaged, or late.
- Proficiency with logistics tracking tools and Excel; ERP exposure a plus.
- Travel to factories, ports, and project sites as needed (typically 25-40%).

## ABOUT THE WORK ENVIRONMENT

This role is full-time on site. WHAT MAKES HUT 8 A GREAT PLACE TO WORK

Hut 8 offers a benefits and wellness program that includes medical, dental, vision, life, and short-term and long-term disability insurance, as well as paid time off. We are proud to invest in building the best team in the industry. At all levels of the organization, we are driven by an entrepreneurial spirit, radical transparency, and relentless growth mentality.

At Hut 8, you will have the opportunity to:

▶ Work with bright, driven peers from a range of educational and professional backgrounds including software development, energy, engineering, entrepreneurship, investment banking, private equity, and management consulting

▶ Design and pitch new products, services, and other initiatives to a leadership team consisting of serial entrepreneurs and seasoned executives and backed by a board of directors consisting of industry veterans of energy, finance, and government

▶ Debate ideas and alternatives in a truly meritocratic setting where the learning curve is steep and the lessons come from both senior and junior members of the team

## About Hut 8

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Hut 8 is an energy infrastructure platform that integrates power, digital infrastructure, and compute at scale to fuel next-generation, energy-intensive technologies including Bitcoin mining and high-performance computing (HPC/AI).
- **Entity Type**: Public (NASDAQ: HUT; TSX: HUT)
- **Headquarters**: Miami, Florida, United States
- **Founded**: 2017
- **Founders**: Not publicly listed as individual founders; the company emerged from the Hut 8 Mining Corp. lineage.

## Core Business
- **Primary industries**: Energy Infrastructure, Digital Infrastructure, High-Performance Computing (HPC), Artificial Intelligence (AI) Compute, Bitcoin Mining.
- **Target customers**: B2B; primarily enterprise and institutional clients needing purpose-built data centers, colocation, and compute capacity for AI and HPC workloads. Also includes institutional energy partners and Bitcoin mining operators.
- **Mission/Purpose**: To build a platform that evolves alongside energy-intensive technologies for decades to come—from world-shaping innovations today to the breakthroughs yet to be achieved. They take a "power-first, innovation-driven" approach.

## Products & Services
- **Energy Infrastructure (Power)**: Acquisition, development, and management of critical energy assets—powered land, interconnects, substations, switchyards, and generation assets. This is the foundational layer of their platform.
- **Digital Infrastructure (Data Centers)**: Design, build, monetize, and operate purpose-built facilities for energy-intensive applications (AI, HPC, Bitcoin mining). Key assets include the Beacon Point (1 GW AI campus) and River Bend (330 MW) sites.
- **Compute (HPC & AI)**: Operating businesses that acquire, deploy, and monetize specialized hardware for next-generation workloads. This includes their **Highrise.ai** subsidiary, which commercializes AI infrastructure and cloud capacity.
- **Bitcoin Mining & Managed Services**: Legacy and ongoing ASIC compute operations across sites in Alberta, New York, and Texas.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed in provided sources. As a public company (NASDAQ: HUT), market cap fluctuates with stock price.
- **Key Metric**: **1,020 megawatts** of energy capacity under management across 15 sites in the US and Canada (as of mid-2026). They recently commercialized the first phase of their 1 GW Beacon Point AI data center campus with a **15-year, 352 MW IT lease** carrying a base-term contract value of **$9.8 billion**.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Macquarie (joint venture partner), a Fortune 200 renewable energy producer (JV partner), and institutional debt investors (closed $4.25 billion in investment-grade senior secured notes for Beacon Point).
- **Growth Signals**: Massive headcount growth (+55.7% year-over-year to 175 employees). Active job postings have grown +116.7% year-over-year (52 open roles). They are aggressively building out their AI/HPC commercial arm (Highrise.ai) and expanding their energy origination team.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Power-First Approach**: Unlike pure data center developers, Hut 8 originates and owns the power assets (land, interconnects, substations) first, giving them a structural advantage in speed and cost to market.
- **Multi-Use Case Flexibility**: They can deploy Bitcoin mining as a "transitional load" to generate cash flow while building out higher-return AI/HPC data centers on the same site. This allows rapid, cost-effective commercialization.
- **Scale & Financial Backing**: A 1 GW campus (Beacon Point) with a $9.8B contracted lease and $4.25B in investment-grade debt financing is a rare, institutional-grade asset in the AI infrastructure space.
- **Integrated Platform**: They own the full stack—power, physical data centers, and compute operations—enabling them to optimize assets for the highest risk-adjusted return over time.

## Strategic Focus
- **Scaling AI Infrastructure**: The primary current focus is commercializing the Beacon Point campus and building out River Bend for AI compute. The Highrise.ai subsidiary is central to this push.
- **Energy Origination**: Aggressively acquiring and developing new power assets (interconnects, substations) across North America.
- **Platform Optimization**: Actively managing the portfolio to transition assets from Bitcoin mining to higher-return HPC/AI use cases over time.
- **Capital Discipline**: Using creative financing (investment-grade notes, JVs) to fund massive capital expenditures while maintaining a disciplined balance sheet.

## Why Work Here
- **High-Impact Work**: Employees work at the intersection of energy and AI—two of the most transformative industries. The company is building infrastructure that powers the next generation of technology.
- **Culture & Values**: Certified as a **Great Place to Work®** and included in Newsweek's America's Greatest Companies. Culture is described as "ownership mindset," "merit-based decision-making," "no room for ego," and "the best idea wins." CEO Asher Genoot emphasizes "substance over flash."
- **Growth Trajectory**: The company is in a hyper-growth phase (55% headcount growth YoY, 117% increase in job postings). This offers rapid career advancement and the chance to shape a scaling organization.
- **Work Environment**: Headquarters in **Miami, FL**, with roles available in San Francisco, Baton Rouge, Nueces County (TX), and remote options for some positions (e.g., Director, Energy Origination is remote).
- **Notable Perks**: Working with a team of "sector veterans and proven builder-operators." Emphasis on intellectual rigor, ownership, and solving hard problems at scale.
