ApplyCTO/ Senior Developers β Climate Tech (Equity-based) - Fully remote
**About us**
We are founding a new climate-tech company building the backbone for green
rating systems for products and services. Our mission is to create a
trustworthy, scalable AI-powered rating platform to accelerate low-carbon
purchasing and climate action.
* _The opportunity *_
Weβre assembling two independent technical teams to develop proof-of-concept
AI systems in a competitive buildathon. Teams will work separately; the
winning team (top 3) will present at the NYSE.
Outcomes:
β’ Winning team: invited to join the company with equity (terms negotiable).
β’ If both teams place in the top 3, both teams will be offered company roles
and equity. This is a skills-based selection β we evaluate demonstrated
results, not certifications.
Roles & expectations
β’ CTO / Technical Lead: system architecture, ML/AI strategy, team leadership,
deployment and compliance oversight.
β’ Senior Developers (ML engineers, backend, frontend, devops): rapid
prototyping, model training/validation, API design, production deployment.
β’ Time commitment: short-term intensive buildathon (dates TBD), with potential
transition to founding/early-employee roles.
β’ Compensation: equity grant subject to negotiated contractual terms; salary
once funded.
Selection process
β’ Two separate teams compete in a timed buildathon - 3 weeks. No collaboration
between teams during the competition.
β’ Independent judges will evaluate technical performance, scalability,
accuracy, and product-market fit etc.
β’ Winners present at the NYSE and receive offers to join the company.

P.S. I'm the co-founder of OurInterest
([www.ourinterest.org](http://www.ourinterest.org)) but that is no longer a
startup and not the company in question.
