We’re pioneering vertically integrated, purpose-built AI infrastructure solutions trusted by Fortune 500 companies to power their most advanced AI applications. Crusoe is redefining AI cloud infrastructure, with a mission to align the future of computing with the future of the climate. Our AI platform is recognized as the "gold standard" for reliability and performance. Our data centers are optimized for AI workloads and are powered by clean, renewable energy.
Be part of the AI revolution with sustainable technology at Crusoe. Here, you'll drive meaningful innovation, make a tangible impact, and join a team that’s setting the pace for responsible, transformative cloud infrastructure.
About This Role:
At Crusoe Energy Systems, our Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) team plays a mission-critical role in maintaining the performance and reliability of our AI-optimized cloud infrastructure. The Storage-focused SRE role is responsible for ensuring the availability, performance, and scalability of Crusoe’s cloud storage products and services, which power compute-intensive, latency-sensitive workloads for AI and HPC use cases. This role directly supports our vertically integrated, sustainable cloud platform by building and optimizing distributed, fault-tolerant storage systems at scale.
What You'll Be Working On:
In this role, you will build automation and self-healing tools to monitor and maintain Crusoe’s distributed cloud storage infrastructure, which includes block, file, and object storage systems. You will drive reliability initiatives focused on data replication, encryption, backup and restore strategies, and robust failover mechanisms. Collaborating closely with storage engineers, you will help implement and maintain high-performance NVMe- and SSD-backed volumes that support large-scale AI compute clusters. Your responsibilities will also include supporting user-facing storage services with a focus on availability, performance tuning, and adherence to error budgets. You’ll investigate and resolve storage-related incidents using deep telemetry, logs, and performance profiling, while also partnering with hardware and kernel teams to diagnose low-level I/O issues and optimize I/O paths, cache policies, and file systems. Additionally, you will contribute to the architecture of fault-tolerant, scalable storage backends tailored for AI-first cloud environments.
