Job description

About the Company
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.
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.
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.
About the Job
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.
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.
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.
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.
What You'll Own
Power Strategy & Infrastructure Design
  • 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
  • Define paths to capacity (near-term vs. long-term) across cost, schedule, and constraints
  • Work directly with utilities and partners to shape power delivery strategy
  • Translate evolving load requirements into credible power ramp plans
  • Identify constraints and design around them with practical, buildable solutions

Electrical Infrastructure & Maintenance
  • Diagnose and resolve power quality issues, failures, and system risks
  • Define system standards and design criteria; partner with facilities team and external contractors for execution
  • Maintain core system documentation (single-lines, panel schedules)
  • Guide maintenance prioritization based on system criticality
  • Design scalable distribution systems that avoid rework

Design & Planning Review
  • Lead early-stage electrical design, including interim solutions
  • Integrate power delivery with cooling, space, and site constraints
  • Develop load calculations, single-lines, and conceptual layouts
  • Review designs for constructability and capacity
  • Coordinate with external partners on design criteria and scope
Construction, Commissioning & Execution
  • Sequence builds to enable rapid capacity deployment
  • Manage electrical scopes, contractors, and submittals
  • Oversee installation to ensure quality, safety, and alignment with design
  • Integrate new systems with minimal operational disruption
Capacity Planning & Power Systems Analysis
  • Build staged power ramp models aligned to business timelines
  • Conduct load studies and track capacity across systems
  • Support power system studies
  • Develop forward-looking infrastructure plans
Safety & Compliance
  • Own electrical safety programs (LOTO, energy control)
  • Ensure compliance with NEC, NFPA 70E, OSHA
  • Support inspections, permitting, and incident investigations
Systems, Standards & Continuous Improvement
  • Develop electrical specifications and standards
  • Improve reliability, maintainability, and documentation practices
  • Support cost estimation and budgeting
What We're Looking For
Required
  • Degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
  • 5-10+ years in industrial, manufacturing, or R&D environments
  • Experience with medium-voltage systems, utility interconnection, or large power upgrades
  • Strong background in electrical distribution systems and load calculations
  • Ability to develop and interpret electrical drawings and system models
  • Experience leading contractors and driving execution
  • Strong troubleshooting and root-cause capability
  • Working knowledge of electrical safety standards (NEC, NFPA 70E, OSHA)
Preferred
  • Experience developing non-traditional or hybrid power solutions
  • Direct experience working with utilities
  • Experience with on-site generation, microgrids, or phased builds
  • PE or EIT certification
  • Experience with power system modeling tools
  • Background in high-growth R&D or prototype environments
Work Environment
This is a full-time, onsite role at our Portland, OR facility. The work involves regular time on the shop floor, in mechanical and electrical rooms, and in active construction or buildout environments. Candidates should be comfortable working alongside engineers, technicians, and contractors in a hands-on industrial setting.
Compensation and Benefits
If hired for this full-time role, you will receive:
  • Cash compensation of $160,000 - $210,000 annually, depending on experience, qualifications, and background.
  • Equity in the company. We're all owners and if we're successful, this equity should be far and away the most valuable component of your compensation.
  • A benefits package that helps you take care of yourself and your family, including:
    • Flexible paid time off
    • Health insurance (the company pays 100% of gold level PPO plan for full time employees, their partners, and dependents)
    • Dental insurance (the company pays 100% for full time employees and 100% for their partners and dependents)
    • Vision insurance (the company pays 100% for full time employees, their partners, and dependents)
    • Disability insurance (the company pays 100% for a policy to provide long term financial support if you become disabled)
  • Relocation assistance to facilitate your move to Portland (if needed).
Location
This is an on-site position. Our offices, lab, and shop are located in Portland, Oregon.
