Unlocking the Supply of Durable Carbon Removals

Gentoo.earth is a sales enablement platform for carbon removal. We exist to accelerate the transition to a trusted & transparent carbon market that can be relied on to achieve net zero.

Currently there is no easy way for durable carbon removal (CDR) suppliers to prospect & engage companies with ambitious net zero targets. CDR suppliers need to engage buyers in multi-year offtake agreements in order to secure financing to scale their project operations. Gentoo.earth accelerates this process by helping suppliers qualify & engage corporate partners. Our mission is to unlock the supply of durable carbon removals.

The Role

Gentoo.earth is searching for a Full Stack/Founding Engineer to lead product development & migration from our existing tech stack.

• Full stack - play an integral part in determining the tech we use and the engineering culture we build. You will work closely with our founder & personally own, plan and implement entire projects.
• A keen interest in data science - data is at the core of what we do. You will play a pivotal role in automating data collection via APIs & leading data analysis.
• Builder first - build and iterate on the fly, with a focus on quickly shipping.
• Flexible & a keen learner - at first, you will roll up your sleeves & get creative within our existing no-code tech stack before initiating our migration as we grow the team.
• Future team lead - you'll play a key role in creating & building our growing engineering team over the next 12-18 months.
• Customer & business exposure - collaborate across many decisions and have a key impact on Gentoo's development.
• Remote/Hybrid (US/AU) - we are currently expanding our operations in the US & have a preference for candidates open to hybrid work in either SF/NYC (USA) or Sydney (Australia). We are also open to remote roles for the right candidate.

About you

• Experience in relational databases & API integrations.
• Personal projects or early start up experiences are a must.
• Preferably 3-5 years of software engineering experience.
• Passionately curious - you're a self learner, motivated to join an early team, understand the problems we're solving and implement solutions across the full UI lifecycle (planning, mock ups, creation, testing).
• Fast paced and scrappy - you're excited by a fast paced, unstructured environment with the chance to have a huge climate impact!

Compensation and Benefits

• Competitive Salary + Equity Package ($110k to $170k depending on qualifications, location & equity stake).
• Flexible work culture (remote / hybrid).
• High level of ownership and autonomy.
• Opportunity to build and lead your own team as we expand to the US.
• Unlimited PTO with a minimum of 2 weeks off per year + all federal/public holidays.
• Make a massive impact as we build the next generation of the carbon market.

Our Process

• Initial call with our Founder to get to know you & share more about the role.
• Technical interview.
• Final chat to discuss your goals & whether Gentoo is the best fit for you.
