Company mission
To accelerate decarbonisation by building the tools organisations need to cut carbon.
Role
Who you are
- Have 4+ years of software engineering industry experience, preferably in Node.js web development or data pipelines
- Have experience building scalable software starting from user needs
- Are excited to join a startup and are ready to help evolve a growing engineering team
What the job involves
- We are looking for a team member who is excited to do everything involved in shipping great products, including hands-on engineering, talking with customers, mastering the climate domain, and setting direction for the company
- You will be joining as an early member of the team that will shape everything that comes next at Watershed
- Ship code to production on day one
- Collaborate with product, design, climate science, and data science to build and iterate on software that helps our customers understand their climate data
- What you could work on:
- Build new interactive data visualizations to help climate leads understand their company's emissions
- Build APIs to unify carbon data access for customers and other engineers
- Build tools that help financial institutions measure and report emissions across their portfolio companies
- Build tools for customers to effectively ingest and interpret business data
Application process
- T starts the same for every candidate: getting to know the team members through 1 to 2 conversations about Watershed, your experience, and your interests
- Next steps can vary by role, but usual next steps are a skill or experience screen (e.g. a coding interview for an engineer, a portfolio review for a designer, deeper experience call for other roles) which leads to a virtual or in person interview panel after that if the screens go well
- We prioritize transparency and lack of surprise throughout the process
Our take
The climate timer is running down, and emission-reduction deadlines are set to pass without targets met. Companies, even when committed to reducing carbon footprints, can struggle to find effective strategies, or to even measure their true environmental impact. Watershed supplies an all-in-one solution for climate-conscious enterprises, which measures carbon output effectively, and turns numbers into action.
Watershed was founded in 2019 to respond to a lack of sophisticated technologies for companies to assess their climate impact. Brands already have complex toolboxes for other departments, such as finance, but emissions teams can find it difficult to supply reports with any confidence due to long wait-times for data, and inaccuracies from estimates. Watershed’s carbon data engine analyses emissions for every line item of a business, and battles estimates by deploying state-of-the-art methodologies for remote work, cloud computing, and a host of other classically difficult-to-measure aspects.
Watershed has ambitions to become the go-to corporate decarbonization platform, and big brands like Airbnb, DoorDash, Twitter and Shopify are already using it to help them in their commitment to reducing emissions. The substantial funding raised by the company will be used to accelerate hiring, and to improve the set of tools it provides for businesses to run effective climate programs.
