About Panthalassa

Panthalassa is a technology company focused on developing renewable energy systems in the ocean, particularly to power computing and Artificial Intelligence infrastructure. Backed by Space Capital.

About the role

Our core technology is the node, a device that produces energy in the ocean’s harshest conditions for years at a time without human maintenance or intervention. This role owns the onsite candidate experience and the logistics that make recruiting feel sharp instead of chaotic. You’ll run interview days end-to-end, keep schedules moving, and be the calm, decisive point person when plans change (because they will).

What they're looking for

  • 1–3+ years in a coordination/admin role where you ran logistics with lots of moving parts (recruiting, HR, EA, events, office ops)
  • Strong calendaring + organization skills (Google Calendar) and comfort working from a tracker/checklist/ATS without things slipping
  • Calm, service-oriented, and decisive onsite: you can troubleshoot quickly, communicate clearly, and keep the day moving
  • Discreet and trustworthy with confidential HR information
  • Experience owning high-volume onsite interview days, including multi-loop schedules and frequent day-of changes
  • Experience using Greenhouse (or a similar ATS) to keep interview plans, feedback, and logistics organized
