Crusoe is building the World’s Favorite AI-first Cloud infrastructure company. 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, we are building the most sustainable, AI-first cloud infrastructure, and our Compute-focused Site Reliability Engineers are the backbone of that mission. This role is centered on supporting virtualization, hypervisor, and kernel-level performance for Crusoe’s compute infrastructure. You’ll play a vital role in deploying and optimizing bare-metal and virtualized compute platforms, ensuring performance, security, and scale for modern AI and HPC workloads. What You'll Be Working On: In this role, you will develop automation and observability tools to monitor Crusoe’s compute infrastructure, spanning from the kernel to orchestration layers. You will support and scale the company’s virtualization stack, including technologies such as KVM, QEMU, and other hypervisors. Collaborating with Linux kernel and hardware teams, you’ll help identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, driver issues, and optimize hardware offloads. A key focus will be on optimizing performance for AI and HPC workloads across CPU, GPU, and DPU/NIC resources. You will participate in root cause analysis for kernel crashes, hardware-software integration problems, and performance regressions, while also integrating hypervisor-level enhancements to improve guest VM reliability and workload isolation. The role involves tuning kernel subsystems such as the process scheduler, NUMA configuration, memory management, and interrupt handling. Additionally, you will work closely with platform teams to implement and validate support for emerging compute hardware, including SmartNICs, BlueField devices, and TPUs
