About the role

Design and build the software ecosystem that powers testing across Endurance, from component qualification through full integrated system validation. Architect and implement hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) and simulation environments that allow firmware and controls software to be tested under realistic operating conditions and failure scenarios. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years of software engineering experience
  • Strong software engineering skills in Python, Rust, C++, C, or similar languages
  • Demonstrated ability to ship production software end-to-end, from architecture through deployment and operation
  • Track record building software for hardware systems, including automated testing, hardware-in-the-loop (HITL), industrial controls, robotics, aerospace, automotive, or other complex electromechanical products
  • Technical fluency strong enough to hold credibility with mechanical, electrical, firmware, and systems engineers
  • Ability to work onsite in Seattle and travel to deployment sites as required
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/Principal Software Engineer at Endurance, you will build the software stack, controls, UIs, and simulation infrastructure that allows our engineering team to rapidly build and validate every component and every subsystem that goes into a subsea geothermal power plant.

As we scale from our first hundred-kilowatt subsea demonstration to gigawatt deployments, the size and complexity of our test and production infrastructure will rise exponentially, rivaling the complexity of the power...
