Who We Are

Gravity Climate is a venture-backed startup that helps industrial businesses and their supply chain partners manage and reduce their carbon footprint. We’re building a software platform that makes it easy and cost-effective for companies to measure their emissions, decarbonize their operations, and promote their sustainability efforts. Together with our customers, our mission is to rapidly accelerate industrial decarbonization. Visit our team page for more about our company and values.

What you’ll tell your friends you do:

• Operate as part of a world-class team to bring our carbon accounting product to market. You will have a broad mandate with opportunities to traverse our full technical staff.

• Add endpoints to our meticulously documented REST API using OpenAPI, Go, and Postgres.

• Implement features for our web app using React and Typescript.

• Grow our list of integrations for easier customer data entry.

• Craft internal tools to help our ops, sales, and customer success teams scale rapidly.

• Automate our devtools and AWS infrastructure to eke maximum leverage from your fellow developers.

• Architect solutions for early users of our API.

• Play a formative role in our company culture.

We’re looking for someone who has:

• Experience building and operating systems that maintain high availability and low latency.

• Experience designing APIs suitable for external integration. This entails striking the right balance between simplicity, flexibility, and safety.

• Familiarity with Go, Postgres, React, Typescript, Docker, or AWS. This is less important: languages can be taught, and we use high-velocity tooling. Still, experience helps.

• Comfort working in a self-directed fashion: operating off high-level imperatives and seeking out requirements when blocked.

• Excellent written communication ability, both technical and non-technical.

• The ability to thrive in an environment involving different collaborators, stakeholders, and subject matter experts.

• A belief that our biggest challenges are also our biggest opportunities.

What's it like to work at Gravity?

To first detangle the web of carbon-emitting activities, and then to offer a viable path to decarbonization at scale, Gravity hires people with a broad technical skillset. Our team has worked on applications with millions of users; analyzed many billions of rows of data; and grown products from inception to hundreds of millions in revenue.

Gravity is a mission-driven company with massive ambition. Working here offers foundational impact; competitive salary; outstanding benefits; meaningful equity; and unlimited PTO. We believe that people do their best work when their needs are satisfied, and providing competitive compensation and significant upside allows our colleagues to focus on the task at hand. Our industry is growing rapidly and any player who can execute stands to do well by doing good.

We also believe that people work best when pushed by peers they respect, and who respect them. Our standards are high across the full breadth of the business: engineers are expected to understand the domain in which they operate, and businesspeople are expected to understand the realities of building production software. We host weekly internal curricula meetings where subject matter experts educate employees on the state of carbon accounting, the regulatory landscape, reporting and target-setting standards, and more.

Addressing climate change is a team sport. Our top interest at this stage is getting the right people in the room to solve the problem (the virtual room! We’re all-remote). We’re less concerned with fitting people to a mold of skillset or work history — what’s more important is diversity of opinion, a willingness to learn, and a desire to work hard.

Thank you for your interest in Gravity!
