Full Job Description

ABOUT ENDURANCE 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 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.   WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING 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.   KEY RESPONSIBILITIES - Assemble mechanical and fluid systems including pressure vessels, piping, valves, and heat exchangers - Perform tubing and piping integration including routing, bending, cutting, and fitting - Execute high-quality plumbing of test systems and subsea hardware (Swagelok, compression fittings, welded systems, etc.) - Install sensors, instrumentation, and support hardware for test readiness - Perform pressure testing, leak checking, and system validation (hydrostatic and pneumatic) - Support system bring-up
