Crusoe is a vertically integrated AI infrastructure company that owns and operates the full stack from energy generation to AI compute delivery. The company is solving the power bottleneck in AI infrastructure through an energy-first approach.
You will join as Manager of Power Distribution Programs, taking ownership of project management for the entire Switchboards & Switchgear sector (low voltage, medium voltage, skid integration, and custom switchboard assemblies). Power Distribution is the highest-volume manufacturing sector and faces acute growth pressure as hyperscale demand for switchgear and PDC-mounted distribution outpaces conventional lead times. This is a working leadership role where you will manage project managers, own the portfolio, and personally carry the most sensitive customer programs.
Key responsibilities include:
- Own consolidated schedule across LV switchboard, MV switchgear, MV PDC, and skid integration programs
- Lead and develop a team of project managers, setting standards for schedule discipline, submittal management, change capture, cost accuracy, and customer communication
- Serve as senior escalation for Power Distribution customers on schedule impact, change negotiation, and recovery planning
- Partner with plant leadership on capacity and line loading; drive resolution of throughput constraints
- Set margin and cost targets for each program and own delivery against them; partner with Project Controls on monthly economics reviews
- Govern submittal and drawing approval performance sector-wide as a tracked metric
- Partner with Supply Chain on long-lead component strategy for breakers, bus, transformers, and MV components
- Support Sales and Estimating on pursuit strategy, lead time commitments, and manufacturability review
- Drive standardization of schedule templates, Inspection and Test Plans, test documentation, and close-out packages
- Own the Power Distribution executive dashboard (throughput, on-time delivery, backlog, margin) and represent the sector in PMO governance
- Perform logic checks, float analysis, critical path validation, and baseline change control on program schedules
