About Crusoe
Crusoe started out running computing on otherwise wasted natural gas and has grown into a builder of large AI data centers with its own GPU cloud. The security hiring is low-level and infrastructure-heavy: a Staff Kernel Security Engineer, a Senior Staff Linux Security Engineer, endpoint and product security engineers, IAM software engineers and a Director of Infrastructure Security, plus a GRC analyst. Nearly all of it is in San Francisco, with one seat in Sunnyvale.
