BeZero Carbon is a key player in the Carbon Market as the world's leading rating agency.

We're on a mission to bring transparency and trust to this rapidly growing market, empowering everyone to price and manage risk effectively.

We're a dynamic climate tech startup with a team of brilliant minds spanning climate science, finance, earth observation, machine learning, and engineering.

We're building innovative technology to analyse vast amounts of data and provide critical insights to carbon market players worldwide. Our tech stack primarily consists of Go and React, running on AWS. However, we prioritise choosing the best tool for each task rather than strictly adhering to specific technologies. As a small, agile startup, you’ll have the opportunity to stay closely involved with the code.

We believe our people are our greatest strength, and we're committed to fostering a culture of growth, opportunity, innovation, and rapid progress. Strong engineering leadership is vital to cultivating this environment.

We see engineering management as having three core principles:

• Individual Growth: Nurturing the careers and skills of each engineer.

• Team Health and Delivery: Building high-performing teams that consistently deliver outstanding results.

• Technical Leadership: Guiding technical direction and ensuring sound engineering practices.

We're searching for an engineering manager who embodies these pillars and can help us elevate our engineering management practice. We are a small agile startup which will enable you to remain close to the code and hands on while growing the team around you by shaping the way we do engineering management at BeZero

About You

• People Leadership: A proven ability to hire, develop, and retain top-tier engineers, creating a collaborative and learning-oriented environment. You're skilled at guiding team dynamics, setting goals, conducting performance reviews, and fostering both individual and team growth.

• Delivery and Execution: You have a strong track record of collaborating with product teams to plan and deliver complex technical projects, working effectively across different departments.

• Communication and Influence: You possess excellent communication skills, enabling you to explain technical ideas to non-technical audiences and influence decisions at all levels.

• Adaptability and Resilience: You thrive in ambiguity and embrace change. As a startup, we need people who are flexible and can navigate evolving situations.

• Continuous Improvement: You constantly seek ways to enhance our processes and the quality of our work.

• Hands-on delivery: You're a highly experienced full-stack engineer who still loves to code. You're driven by the challenge of building innovative solutions and find deep satisfaction in seeing your technical contributions come to life.
