About Us

Climate-i is a climate tech start-up on a mission to reduce the world s most potent and fastest growing emissions: fluorinated gases, also known as F-gases . We are building innovative hardware systems from the ground up, combining deep technical problem-solving with a mission-driven approach. Our first products address leaks of sulphur hexafluoride (SF6), the world s most potent greenhouse gas (GWP 24,300) from the electricity grid where it is used as a high-voltage interruption and insulation gas. We are a small, friendly team developing technology which will have a large real-world impact. If you join us, you will directly shape early-stage climate-positive innovation.

The Role

This is an exciting opportunity to join Climate-i at an early stage in the company s life and work directly with our CTO on real-world climate challenges. You will make a major contribution to advancing our technology to capture SF6 emissions through designing, building & testing prototypes as well as research and product development. Day-to-day work will be in our workshop in Falmouth, Cornwall but you will also travel to customer sites across the UK to understand system requirements and install and monitor product trials as we prepare to commercialise our technology.

We currently have the funding required to offer the successful candidate a one-year contract. In the course of the next 12-months we hope to secure additional funds which will enable us to extend the contract subject to the job-holder s performance and the skill requirements of the company which may evolve over time.

The salary we offer will be commensurate with the successful candidate s experience.

Key Responsibilities

What We Re Looking For

You may be a Mechanical, Chemical, or Process Engineering graduate or someone with experience in Industrial Design. You will have a successful track record of making things or working in a practical setting.
