About the role
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 Global Commodity Manager (GCM) at Endurance Energy, you will work closely with engineering and integration teams to translate designs into fully sourced, build-ready systems. You will own supplier selection, purchasing, and planning across mechanical, electrical, and custom-fabricated components. You will track every part on the BOM, identify risks early, and drive actions to ensure builds are never blocked by missing or late hardware. You are expected to operate with high ownership and urgency: proactively managing vendors, resolving delays, and continuously improving how we source and plan hardware. Key
Responsibilities Own procurement across mechanical, electrical, and custom components Build and manage supplier relationships including machine shops, PCBA contract manufacturers, and component vendors Expand and qualify new suppliers to increase speed, capacity, and redundancy Drive RFQs, pricing negotiations, and lead time reduction across vendors Track full BOM status for upcoming builds and deployments Identify long-lead items and develop mitigation plans early Maintain clear, real-time visibility into part status, risks, and delivery timelines Coordinate closely with engineering and integration teams to ensure build readiness Manage purchase orders, expedite critical components, and resolve supply issues Support make vs buy decisions and vendor selection for new designs Improve procurement and planning processes for speed and reliability Maintain organized documentation across suppliers, quotes, and orders Support inventory strategy for critical components and spares
