Revolutionizing sustainable energy by harnessing the untapped power of Earth's oceans.

About the CompanyWe are a renewable energy and ocean technology company committed to rapidly developing and deploying technologies that will ensure a sustainable future for Earth by unlocking the vast energy potential of its oceans. Our focus is on capturing civilizational-scale renewable energy for applications including computing and affordable renewable fuels delivered to shore.Panthalassa is a public benefit corporation headquartered in Portland, Oregon, backed by leading venture capitalists, philanthropic investors, university endowments, and private investment offices. We operate as an idea meritocracy in which the best ideas change the company's direction on a regular basis.About the JobOur core technology is the node, a device that produces energy in the ocean's harshest conditions for years at a time without human maintenance or intervention.We are seeking an Environmental Health &amp; Safety Specialist who is most at home being close to the work. This is a hands-on, embedded role: you will work alongside engineers, technicians, and crews day-to-day, helping teams identify hazards, plan work safely, and solve practical safety problems in real time. The right person will earn trust by working close to the work, bringing practical safety judgment into planning and execution, and helping teams solve problems before they become incidents.We are not here to slow things down; we are here to enable safe speed. That means building safety into how work gets planned and done, coaching people in the moment, and developing pragmatic solutions to the unexpected.
