Lithos Carbon
Overview
As a Senior Software Engineer at Lithos, you'll work directly with our Head of Engineering to build the operating system for one of the largest carbon dioxide removal efforts in history. How does software play a role? Carbon removal is a mass transfer problem. We need to create an entirely new industry capable of removing tens of billions of tons of CO2 — the same order of magnitude as humanity's entire global production of food, or concrete, and to do all this within the next decade. Our bet: the best chance of success is by leveraging three industries already capable of this scale: agriculture, mining, and transportation. But just having the physical and human infrastructure is not enough. At Lithos, we\'re building the operating system to plan, orchestrate, track, and optimize enhanced rock weathering. You\'ll combine deep full-stack technical skills with empathy and design thinking to build and scale our interconnected platform. Responsibilities
Develop interactive geospatial tools for mapping, analysis, and optimization Create automated and human-in-the-loop workflows for digitizing PDF maps and records Build pipelines for ingesting, converting, and analyzing raw data logs from agricultural machinery Create audit-ready representations, tracking and reconciliation of real-world activities Develop laboratories information management systems (LIMS) for tens of thousands of field samples Qualifications
Experience building apps for non-technical power users in a fast-paced, early-stage environment. mid-senior engineering experience is preferred Fluent in modern web development across the full stack with technologies similar to React, Typescript, Phoenix and LiveView, Postgres/PostGIS/SQL; able to rapidly learn new languages or technologies from first principles Excellent communication skills, comfortable operating in a highly ambiguous environment, able to work independently and collaborate with internal and external stakeholders Balanced approach to delivering scrappy, resourceful solutions while recognizing key areas for longer-term investment and know when to address tech debt Benefits
Competitive salary (base pay range $140,000 - $180,000 USD) and meaningful equity compensation Comprehensive health coverage including medical, dental, and vision Access to 401k plan Unlimited PTO and sick days Base pay range
$140,000.00/yr - $180,000.00/yr About Lithos
Lithos Carbon revolutionizes the carbon capture industry through enhanced rock weathering technology. We work with farmers to spread basalt rock on farmland, which increases soil health and repurposes post-industrial waste. Our technology aims to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere at a fraction of the cost of other methods, while helping farmers improve crop yields. Our team includes leading academic scientists and proven entrepreneurs, and we are backed by investors like Union Square Ventures and Greylock Partners. We started commercializing the technology in 2022 and have signed customers for our permanent carbon removal credits including Stripe, Alphabet, Shopify, and McKinsey\'s Frontier program. You can read about our work in FastCompany, Axios, and on our blog. EEO
