Panthalassa is a renewable energy and ocean technology company that builds autonomous, ocean-powered nodes that generate electricity from wave energy and run AI computing onboard.
<h4><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>About the Company</strong></span></h4> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The open ocean is Earth’s largest and most power-dense renewable energy resource. Panthalassa is harnessing that resource to generate the cheapest energy on the planet. Our mission is to provide abundant and affordable clean energy for everyone.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">We are rapidly scaling high-power test infrastructure for compute, power electronics, and turbine systems while bringing online state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment across multiple sites. In this environment, identifying creative, practical solutions that enable the delivery of sufficient power—quickly and reliably—will be a key contributor to the company’s success. </span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Founded in 2016 and based in the Pacific Northwest, our team comes from diverse backgrounds in aerospace, naval architecture, marine operations, hardware, software, and research.</span></p> <h4><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>About the Job</strong></span></h4> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">We are building a core technology designed to operate in the harshest, most unpredictable environments on Earth, the world’s oceans. Delivering on this mission requires not only elite engineering talent but a work environment that runs smoothly, scales intelligently, and frees our team to focus on solving impossibly hard problems.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">We are looking for an Electrical Infrastructure Engineer to serve as the technical authority for the design and evolution of electrical infrastructure across our facilities. This role spans existing operations and new build-outs, covering infrastructure upgrades, new facility diligence, design input, installation, commissioning, and long-term system performance.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This is a design-forward role for someone who understands how power infrastructure actually gets delivered today, how to source it, design it, and scale it under real-world constraints. You will develop strategies to unlock megawatt-scale capacity quickly by combining traditional and non-traditional infrastructure approaches. </span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">You are comfortable working upstream, shaping electrical architecture, identifying risks early, and translating evolving engineering needs into practical, buildable infrastructure plans that can be executed with quality and speed. </span></p> <h2><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>What You'll Own</strong></span></h2> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Power Strategy & Infrastructure Design </strong></span></p> <ul> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Develop hybrid approaches to delivering MW-scale power (utility, temporary service, generation, storage), understanding technical requirements and thinking from first principles to identify creative solutions that meet those requirements </span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Define paths to capacity (near-term vs. long-term) across cost, schedule, and constraints</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Work directly with utilities and partners to shape power delivery strategy</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Translate evolving load requirements into credible power ramp plans</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Identify constraints and design around them with practical, buildable solutions</span></li> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Electrical Infrastructure & Maintenance</strong></span></p> <ul> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Diagnose and resolve power quality issues, failures, and system risks</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Define system standards and design criteria; partner with facilities team and external contractors for execution</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Maintain core system documentation (single-lines, panel schedules)</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Guide maintenance prioritization based on system criticality</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Design scalable distribution systems that avoid rework</span></li> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Design & Planning Review</strong></span></p> <ul> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Lead early-stage electrical design, including interim solutions</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Integrate power delivery with cooling, space, and site constraints</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Develop load calculations, single-lines, and conceptual layouts</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Review designs for constructability and capacity</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Coordinate with external partners on design criteria and scope</span></li> </ul> <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Construction, Commissioning & Execution</strong></span></h3> <ul> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Sequence builds to enable rapid capacity deployment</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Manage electrical scopes, contractors, and submittals</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Oversee installation to ensure quality, safety, and alignment with design</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Integrate new systems with minimal operational disruption</span></li> </ul> <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Capacity Planning & Power Systems
