Welding & Fabrication Specialist

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.

As a welder at Endurance Energy, you’ll work alongside engineers to develop welding processes, fabricate novel heat exchanger designs, and develop repeatable manufacturing processes.

You’ll gain hands-on experience with GTAW and handheld laser welding of stainless steel, nickel alloys, and titanium while helping us manufacture the world’s first subsea geothermal power plant.

Additionally, you will support rapid prototyping and the first of a kind manufacturing efforts required to deliver subsea infrastructure in a fast-paced environment.
