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 This Role:
The Senior Contract Specialist (IT, Network & Cloud) plays a pivotal role as the bridge between technical requirements and legal/financial compliance. In this position, you will oversee complex procurement, SLA negotiations, and licensing models tailored to modern data centers, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise software. Your expertise will directly impact company goals by optimizing cloud spending, mitigating vendor risk, and building a scalable procurement framework across our IT and Cloud footprint.
The ideal candidate possesses a strong grasp of SaaS, IaaS, and modern virtualization technologies, alongside a proven track record of contract lifecycle management. You thrive in a dynamic environment, excel at translating technical jargon into clear business terms, and know how to partner with cross-functional technical, legal, and financial leaders to protect company interests.
This role will be 100% onsite at our San Francisco office.
What You’ll Be Working On:
-
Contract Negotiation & Drafting: Define and negotiate complex Service Level Agreements (SLAs), focusing on critical uptime metrics, latency, and mean time to repair (MTTR).
-
Licensing & Model Transitions: Manage the transition from legacy perpetual licenses to subscription-based cloud models across platforms like Azure, AWS, and GCP.
-
Data Privacy & Compliance: Ensure all vendor agreements adhere to GDPR, CCPA, SOC2, and internal security standards in coordination with the CISO.
