RenewCO₂ commercializes electrochemical processes to convert CO₂ emissions into carbon-negative materials. What distinguishes us from other CO₂ reduction approaches is our proprietary catalyst, which enables an energy-efficient and selective pathway to existing valuable commodity chemicals, such as formic acid, ammonia, monoethylene glycol, sustainable aviation fuel, and more. Our products can access existing markets, and our economics are projected to be competitive or advantageous compared to current fossil-based production. We will be in a position to offer differentiated carbon-negative products at competitive prices, thereby having a significant impact on emissions and society. We're seeking highly motivated team leaders and members who want to make a significant positive impact on climate change and are excited to work in a collaborative team setting.

The RenewCO₂ leadership team includes experts in electrochemical catalysis and industrial systems, including Dr. Anders Laursen, Dr. Karin Calvinho, and Dr. Chock Karuppaiah, along with industry leaders such as Arne Ballantine (Founder, Ohmium; former Bloom Energy CEO) and Srushti Parhar (ex-Bloom Energy, software industry veteran). Additional leadership team members bring deep expertise from the chemicals and oil & gas sectors across U.S. and Japanese markets and will actively mentor and support selected candidates.

Roles and responsibilities:

• Coordinate engineering projects from design and development through fabrication, assembly, and testing
• Develop and maintain project schedules, milestones, and action-item trackers
• Work closely with mechanical, electrical, process, and other engineering teams to coordinate project activities
• Track engineering deliverables, including drawings, BOMs, specifications, and test documentation
• Coordinate with suppliers and vendors to track procurement, fabrication, and delivery of project hardware
• Follow up on project actions, identify delays or issues, and help drive them to resolution
• Organize meetings and maintain clear action items and follow-ups
• Prepare regular status updates for management
• Support prototype builds, system assembly, testing, and commissioning activities
• Maintain project documentation and ensure that key project information is kept up to date
• Coordinate with external partners and suppliers as required

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent in Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, Process, or a related engineering discipline
• 3+ years of experience in engineering, project coordination, or a similar technical role
• Good understanding of engineering design and development processes
• Ability to work effectively with engineers, suppliers, and vendors
• Good organizational and follow-up skills, with the ability to manage multiple activities
• Ability to understand engineering drawings, BOMs, specifications, and technical requirements
• Good problem-solving skills and attention to detail
• Ability to work independently and take ownership of assigned activities

Working at an Early-Stage Startup

RenewCO2 is an early-stage company. Priorities shift as the technology and commercial opportunities evolve, internal processes are still being established, and team members are expected to exercise sound judgment without close supervision. Candidates who do their best work in highly structured environments with clearly defined paths are unlikely to find this role a good fit. Candidates who are comfortable with ambiguity, take initiative on incomplete information, and work effectively alongside colleagues across functions are likely to thrive here.

Why Join RenewCO2

• Work on cutting-edge CO₂ electrolysis and climate technologies
• Direct exposure to scale-up and real-world system building, from laboratory testers through pilot systems
• Mentorship from operating leaders with prior experience building electrolyzer and fuel cell companies
• Opportunity to set up the project management practices of a growing deep-tech company and grow with the role
• Opportunity to work with a global team across India and the U.S.
