Subsea Geothermal for Energy Abundance. Backed by First Round Capital.
About the role
Own harness design for subsea deployment and test systems, from interface definition through released drawings Participate in and own technical trades that will balance stakeholder objectives and drive system architecture, including how and whether subsystems are physically partitioned Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- 3+ years of engineering experience designing and delivering wiring harnesses or electrical interconnect for complex hardware systems
- Strong understanding of connectors, cable construction, shielding, grounding, and signal integrity, and of how harnesses fail in the field
- Experience producing harness drawings, BOMs, termination specifications, and 3D layouts in CAD (e.g., Siemens NX)
- Working knowledge of harness test methods including hipot, insulation resistance, and continuity testing
- Hands-on experience building and terminating prototypes
- Ability to perform basic PCBA or component level electrical measurements and debugging
More about this role
Endurance is building the world's first modular subsea geothermal power plants, converting vast thermal resources under the ocean into gigawatts of baseload power. Backed by Founders Fund, Felicis, First Round Capital, and Point72 Ventures, our founding team includes veterans from SpaceX, Helion, Blue Origin, and Apple. We have completed multiple deep-ocean deployments to subsea volcanoes and are launching a long-term demonstration project this fall. By leveraging modular design, manufacturing scale, efficient drilling, and latent cooling on the seafloor, we are pioneering a new category of energy that outperforms traditional sources on environmental impact, deployment speed, and cost.
As a Senior Harness Engineer at Endurance, you will own the design and implementation of our subsea hardware’s power, data, and signal interconnections.
This is a design-ownership role. You will take schematics and interface documents from our engineers and turn them into complete harness designs: connector and cable selection, shielding and grounding strategy, routing and strain relief, overmold and penetrator approach, termination specifications, drawings, and BOMs. You will decide what we build...
