Staff Software Engineer, Systems Engineering Focus

Crusoe is on a mission to accelerate the abundance of energy and intelligence. 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 the Role: We are seeking a Staff Software Engineer to design, build, and scale Crusoe Cloud's customer-facing managed services. The Managed Platform Services team owns and operates multiple customer-facing products [... source excerpt omitted ...] features, build systems from 0 to 1, and scale existing services alongside a team of strong generalist engineers. What sets you apart is your systems programming expertise, which you'll bring as a technical authority on our Edge & Agents domain: the software that runs directly on customer infrastructure. This agent code is mission-critical — a failure here is a customer production incident. You'll provide deeper technical oversight on existing, inflight, and planned edge systems while contributing broadly across the platform. This is a full-time position. What You'll Be Working On: Customer-Facing Feature Development: Build and scale core platform services end-to-end — from [... source excerpt omitted ...] on inflight designs, and shape how we build and operate software at the system level. Edge Agent Development: Build and maintain lightweight, high-reliability agents deployed on customer VMs. Minimize CPU/memory footprint without sacrificing observability coverage. Linux Kernel Metrics & eBPF: Instrument low-level system metrics using eBPF and procfs to power Crusoe's monitoring and telemetry pipeline. Packaging & Distribution: Own agent packaging and deployment via Helm charts, ensuring smooth delivery across customer environments. Pull-Based Scraping Architecture: Design and evolve the "pull" scraping logic that collects metrics from customer infrastructure with minimal op
