Subsea Geothermal for Energy Abundance. Backed by First Round Capital.
About the role
The primary structure is the plant. It carries the hot loop, the power electronics, and the connection to the well; it survives the lift, the splash zone, the transit, and the landing on an active hydrothermal field 1-3 km down; and then it stays there for years in seawater at 100-300 bar. We design, build, test, and deploy it. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Bachelor's degree in mechanical, aerospace, structural, or ocean engineering, or a related engineering discipline
- 6+ years of professional experience designing and analyzing load-bearing structures for demanding environments
- Ownership of at least one large structure from design through fabrication and fielded use
- Experience designing primary structures for subsea or offshore systems, submarines or naval vessels, launch vehicles or aircraft, or heavy industrial equipment
- Experience designing or analyzing pressure vessels, especially for external pressure, and
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.
