GreenTech Frontend Developer – Blockchain

GreenTech Frontend Developer – Blockchain

Location: Remote, Worldwide.
Salary: Up to $110K

Blockchain isn’t something traditionally associated with climate impact and making a positive difference. More than a few would argue that anything blockchain linked could deliver a positive environmental or social impact.

But there’s an important argument to be made – in regard to greenwashing – for the transparency that blockchain can bring to the table.

It’s an undeniably exciting and interesting field of work with immense potential. Some see it as the next coming of the internet, Web 3.0 – ‘oooooh’, ‘aaaahh’…

But there are tangible examples of companies using blockchain to illuminate their supply chains, measure and then address, in terms of emissions and product sustainability. That’s not to be sniffed at.

Here we have a company making it easier for socially and environmentally driven individuals to find opportunities in their desired fields. To find jobs, projects and companies delivering the impact they seek.

Their platform enables people to search for projects and job roles, whether permanent, freelance or volunteering, the world over, and apply. The blockchain element enables them and the business or group to show what is achieved, a completed portfolio of work or outcomes, demonstrating their credentials and action to protect them against the heckles of greenwashing.

The company are globally dispersed with their base in Japan, but people spread around the world from India to the US.

The teams are driven by their passion for social and environmental action and have decades of experience helping refugees, working on renewables projects, tackling injustice and walking a path towards a healthier planet and society.

In terms of skills they’re looking for, Javascript or Typescript, React and NodeJS will stand out.

Following that, they use Solidity and Haskell with Cardano and Milkomedia and are Ethereum compatible so any exp touching those is great. And testing or automation experience to help establish an infrastructure that’s scalable on an international level will jump out, too. They want their platform to benefit companies, NGOs and motivated people around the world, creating communities that can amplify their impacts.

In terms of Infrastructure, they’re using AWS, with some GraphQL and are hoping to integrate algorithms and data structures to make it easier for folks to find work that matches their skills and experience.

They’re tackling problems that, so far, have only had local or regional solutions with limited reach or too niche a focus. If you’re keen to solve problems that have scaled and growing benefits for our one and only planet and its most prolific species, please hit apply.

Biodiversity is a buzzword right now. It needs critical and sustained support, presently.

Thankfully, as you’re reading this, there are organisations already working on deeply detailed and technical systems and tools aimed at recovering and regenerating ecosystems. These are essential in promoting collaboration and preventing biodiversity loss or limiting loss in scenarios where it is unavoidable.

These systems range from databases on endangered species and key biodiversity areas, to things like tracking pollution and the recovery of regions or species. They are integrated into companies, governments and organisations all over the world and help all to assess and understand how ecosystems interact and influence one another and how we, as humans, can better protect them.

The passion for what you do will serve you well in this role where the overall responsibility for a critical database and systems’ infrastructure management will be part of everyday action.

So, what will you be doing?

Some of the role will consist of ensuring the continued success of a vital tool by managing and planning platform improvements, overseeing the building of new features and supporting users and teams through their unique implementations and cross integration.

Another part of it is to do with innovation and long-term strategy and goals. You’ll work heavily with data and people around the world, ensuring internal and external teams, scientists, committees and all stakeholders have access to the information they require.

You’ll supervise and drive design, development of new features and [longer-term] take responsibility for architecture decisions, as the organisation is keen for the tech they use to keep evolving!

Hopefully, you’re keen to learn and happy using your initiative to dig out information, track down the right people to speak with across partnering charity organisations and have the “crack-on” attitude to learn new technologies quickly when needed.

It’s worth mentioning that use of one or more modern technologies like Ruby on Rails, JavaScript and/or Python is required, as well as good commercial experience with GIS as there will be times where urgent input of data will rest in your hands only.

So, if you care about our planet and all the beings lucky enough to reside here, if you want to have an instrumental role within a global cooperation between conservation data teams and consortium tech committees, then you should 100% hit apply.

ClimateTech Marketing Manager

ClimateTech Marketing Manager / Growth Manager ” Fashion/Textiles

Location: Fully Remote (ideally UK).
Salary: £45K + benefits & equity

Role: take ownership of areas within growth, sales processes or marketing, events etc.

Know the saying, “a wolf in sheep’s clothing”? It’s fair to say the fashion industry is talking the talk when it comes to sustainability, but they’re failing miserably in walking the walk.

There’s a literal clothing desert in Chile and billions of discarded items are incinerated each year, often after being worn just once. Crazay.

There’s nothing sheepish about the company we are working with, they are fiercely changing the fashion industry, enabling brands to identify a sustainable pathway for their supply chain, by showing fashion brands insights into their suppliers.

By doing this, businesses can take action and amend their practices to focus their future activity on suppliers taking real steps to cut emissions, improve the sourcing of materials, tackle modern slavery and more.

They are building a platform which grants their clients access to data they otherwise wouldn’t be able to collate or translate into tangible points. Through this platform, they also improve data the companies already have by making it broader and easier to work with.

This is incredibly powerful in achieving buy-in from major brands, helping them establish which factories they should do more work with, and steering away from the environmentally poor ones.

They use data from various sources including publicly available international trade and shipping data, data from certification bodies and public information orgs addressing issues like pollution or modern slavery and they’re always finding additional sources to interrogate and improve the quality of data used.

They have some exciting customers, but now they need to expand. It’s a small team so far, so account management and new customer engagement are limited. So they’re looking for a Marketing Manager or Chief Marketing Officer ” not picky on title ” to get their platform in front of more potential customers and decision-makers.

You’ll work closely with the COO on establishing their business strategy moving forward, putting in plans and goals to work towards in terms of increasing revenue to reach a point of profitability ” which they hope to achieve in the next 12-18 months. So, you’ll essentially become part of the founding team, contributing to their vision and defining their pathway to reach profitability.

This means you’ll help them hire additional people as they grow and increase their impact, feeding back to the CTO and CPO on what customers want and need, and what features or improvements should be prioritised.

They’re open-minded about how you raise their profile and don’t have a marketing strategy they’re settled on, so you’ll have real ownership over whether you engage on socials, targeted email campaigns, business events and conferences or a mix of those and other methods familiar to you.

Want to be a part of the team that shows the fashion sector that sustainable change is doable? Please say hello.

And do you also care about sorting out the climate crisis, tackling meaty issues like food poverty and waste of” meat, and stuff?

 

Wellll then read on.

 

You likely forged your career as a developer working with dev teams of varied sizes ga’thumping interesting and engaging problems, where tech provides a tangible and useful solution.

 

The real important things for this role are leadership and scale. Have you led teams through big migrations, redesigns or rearchitecting and refactoring platforms and services? Has that software serviced millions of users?

 

The Mobile and Web app here has more than 6 million global users. They’re looking at problems linked to how their infrastructure and assets can work more efficiently, factoring in geographical and culture differences in user behaviours or digital access and capacity.

 

Sustainability is the aim of the game, enabling millions and then hundreds of, or even billions of people to live more sustainably and share the food or other items they don’t need, want, or no longer have use for.

 

Imagine working for a company that is actively changing how the world works, making it easy for us to turn wasteful consumers of excess to community-based action-heroes who are actively building a more sustainable future through the use of technology”

 

That can’t happen at scale [in a social system with raaaaather significant design flaws] without communities and the individuals within them adapting. This App facilitates all of that and improves social engagement along with a host of other benefits.

 

This role is hands-off. Tech knowledge is important, but building and maintaining happy and productive teams is important’er… Onboarding folks so they can settle in quickly and improving that process. And the happy part is probably most important. This company treat their people well and want them fresh and motivated to work. They don’t over work people and offer unrivalled flexibility to live and work how you see best.

 

Want to work from somewhere sunny for ~6 months of the year? That’s fine. They’re fully remote as standard ” always have been, so they’re set up for that structure. Ya just need to pay tax in the UK.

 

You’ll be leading a mobile team of 6 ” growing to 10 by the time you join as two Senior React Native devs are starting in the coming weeks and a [hands-on] Tech Lead will join soon, too ” including a QA Tester. You will help take ownership of delivering their projects, optimising processes, improving efficiency and skills within the team, and likely add 2-3 more people in 2023.

 

Their tech centres around Ruby on Rails and React (Native) and they use things like AWS with S3, ECR, ELB, Cloudwatch and also use Docker, Travis CI for their pipelines, lots of google maps integration and Redis, among other things. So any experience with those or similar tools would be cool, but not essential.

 

You’ll work closely with stakeholders including customers and product managers, other Team Leads and Engineering Managers, the CTO and other leadership to shape the priorities and direction of the platform.

 

So, fancy using your skills to help one the coolest and most newsworthy sustainability-tech companies in the world, while also advancing your career?

 

There’s plenty more to talk about, so send over your CV and let’s have a chat.
