Climate CTO

Do you wonder if you’re working on meaningful problems? Ready to use your technical skills to save the planet? We are running out of time to reach net zero carbon emissions and you can help!

We have identified a number of early stage climate startups that have strong domain expertise, but would greatly benefit from a traditional technical founder - a Chief Technical Officer. Climate change represents a multi-trillion dollar market opportunity ripe for disruption. Change your career, save our climate.

Are you starting a climate startup? We want to empower all climate startups to succeed by giving them access to the highest quality technical talent.

When two of us left our jobs as Google engineers in July 2020, half a dozen climate startups reached out and asked us to be their CTO. We realized that climate startups need people with deep experience in software engineering, but climate experts don't know a lot of these folks. And in fact, not having a climate CTO is preventing some climate start-ups from taking off.

We want to bridge this gap by finding you a climate CTO. All candidates are either from our networks, or have been vetted and screened by us.

You get matched with opportunities to become a CTO at exciting new startups, vetted by us. You can also opt in to invitations to founder events we host. To be considered, please fill out our form here.
