Senior Test Infrastructure Software Engineer

SENIOR / PRINCIPAL TEST INFRASTRUCTURE SOFTWARE ENGINEER

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 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.

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING

As a Senior Test Infrastructure Software Engineer at Endurance, you will build the software, controls, and electrical infrastructure that allows our engineering team to rapidly validate every component and every subsystem that goes into a subsea geothermal power plant.

This is not a traditional test software role. One day you may be wiring sensors into a valve test stand, integrating DAQs and PLCs, or bringing up a new electrical system. The next day you may be writing Python services, building hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) simulations, architecting automated test frameworks, or developing software that injects faults to break our control systems before the ocean does.

We believe great test infrastructure is one of the highest leverage investments we can make as an engineering organization. Every improvement you make increases the speed at which mechanical, electrical, firmware, and controls engineers can design, test, iterate, and deploy hardware. Your job is to build the software and hardware ecosystem that enables that acceleration.

You will work directly with firmware, electrical, mechanical, and test engineers to understand what they are building, identify how it should be ...
