The Posting

Drogue is building free-floating, off-grid energy platforms at sea for customers who can't get power fast enough on land. Using the ocean's thermal gradient, each platform generates affordable, baseload electricity with no grid interconnection queues, no permitting delays, and no fuel supply chains.

We're a small team of engineers taking on a first-of-its-kind challenge with proven hardware and first principles thinking. If you love hard problems and want to build something new, keep reading.

You're a Master of None, but don't worry, it’s a generalist’s world https://davidepstein.com/range/ after all. If you read everything above and thought "I could do half of each of those", this might be your spot. We're looking for versatile, high-horsepower operators who can plug in wherever the hardest problem is on any given week. You might be writing a procurement spec on Monday, running a CFD sim on Wednesday, and on a call with a customer on Friday.

Responsibilities:

  • Fill gaps across engineering, operations, and project execution as the company's needs evolve
  • Pick up unfamiliar problems quickly and drive them to resolution without waiting to be told how
  • Contribute to design reviews, testing, vendor coordination, and anything else that needs doing
  • Bring a skill or perspective the rest of the team doesn't have yet

Qualifications:

  • Engineering degree and a track record of doing a wide range of things well
  • Demonstrated ability to learn fast, work independently, and operate in chaos
  • You've been the person who figured it out when nobody else knew how

This role is based in Washington, D.C. and will include time at sea. We offer generous relocation assistance for candidates across the US. We pay our employees competitive salaries based on level of experience and offer meaningful equity in a fast growing company. Apply below, or reach out at jobs@drogue.com with questions.
