We turn complex, bleeding-edge engineering innovation into clear, compelling narratives that build reputation and drive market demand. As an AI-native communications function, we work the way the industry moves: fast, precise, and informed by the technology itself. About the Role CoreWeave is building the infrastructure of the AI era. The Infrastructure Communications Lead is responsible for the external communications behind that infrastructure — our GPU fleet, data center expansion, strategic partnerships, and the communities and policy environments where we operate and grow. You will communicate about CoreWeave's growth, achievement, and civic responsibility, working at the intersection of technical storytelling and stakeholder communications and partnering across Engineering, Product, Marketing, and Government Affairs. You will shape narratives that are credible across technical, local, and policy-focused audiences.  What You’ll Do Infrastructure & Technology Narrative Own the media and influencer narrative for CoreWeave's infrastructure portfolio, including GPU compute, data center builds, networking, power, and cooling innovations. Translate deeply technical concepts such as GPU clusters, liquid cooling, power density, and distributed systems into compelling stories for developers, enterprise IT leaders, policy makers, local, and investor audiences. Drive announcement cycles and media strategy around data center openings, capacity expansions, new hardware generations, and infrastructure milestones. Develop and deploy proactive communications, including rapid-response messaging, media rebuttals, and educational content that counters misinformation and misconceptions regarding energy use, ratepayer impact, water consumption, environmental impact, and economic value. Serve as the communications lead for CoreWeave's strategic partnerships, ensuring CoreWeave's story is accurately and prominently represented in news narratives, joint announcements, and news moments.  Partner with the Product Communications lead to grow and maintain relationships with trade and technology reporters covering AI, hardware, compute, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise IT. Develop and own a robust library of press materials: press releases, media pitches, backgrounders, FAQs, executive talking points, and briefing documents tailored to infrastructure and compute audiences. Community & Policy Communications Develop proactive communications strategies for communities where CoreWeave data centers are located or planned, building understanding at the local level. Provide evidence-based communications on environmental, economic, and community impact. Partner with Legal & Government Affairs, real estate, and development teams throughout the data center development lifecycle to build external communications strategies informed by political readiness and community engagement intelligence. Partner with Government Affairs to develop and execute communications strategies that  translate complex national policy positions into local stories for community stakeholders (including a community narrative playbook, op-eds, media placements, coalition messaging, and executive commentary). Build relationships with policy-focused journalists, think tanks, and industry coalitions to amplify CoreWeave's perspective in legislative and regulatory conversations. Translate public opinion research and polling insights into proactive content strategies that get ahead of emerging narratives on energy, jobs, and community impact. AI-Native Communications Discipline Operate as a native practitioner of modern communications tools, using AI to accelerate research, content, monitoring, and measurement. Contribute to CoreWeave's broader effort to build a best-in-class, AI-native communications function that sets a new standard for the industry.
