Integration & Test Specialist (Fluids & Structures)

Endurance is building the worlds first modular subsea geothermal power plants converting vast thermal resources under the ocean into gigawatts of baseload power. Backed by First Round Capital and Point72 Ventures our founding team includes veterans from SpaceX Helion and Robinhood. We have completed multiple deep ocean deployments and are launching our generation pilot this year. By leveraging manufacturing scale efficient drilling and latent cooling on the seafloor we are pioneering a new category of energy that outperforms traditional sources on both environmental impact and cost.

As an Integration & Test Specialist at Endurance Energy you will work alongside mechanical fluids and electrical engineers to assemble plumb instrument and test complex systems under real-world conditions.

You will be responsible for taking subsystems from parts to fully integrated hardware pressure-tight leak-free instrumented and ready for test. You will play a key role in debugging integration issues improving build processes and ensuring systems are safe and robust before deployment.

You are expected to operate with high ownership on the floor: driving build quality identifying issues early and pushing systems to readiness without waiting for direction.

This is a critical position where your speed precision and judgment directly impact our ability to hit hardware milestones on aggressive timelines.
