We’re Thalo Labs, an NYC-based company on a mission to transform the built environment into a powerful tool for fighting climate change. Where others see buildings as part of the problem, we see an incredible opportunity to leverage existing infrastructure to not only accelerate drawdown, but to transform the built environment from one of the biggest emitters to a carbon sink.
Our team has built self-driving cars at Waymo, worked on satellite imagery at Google, designed systems for John Deere, developed space missions for NASA, engineered bikes for Peloton, led manufacturing design for Boom Supersonic jets and more. We are united by our shared goal of making products that help us decarbonize today, and we’re looking for an awesome software engineer to help us build our decarbonization products.
The ideal candidate has full stack experience in web services / cloud infrastructure and is also comfortable making significant contributions in domains outside of their core areas of focus. In this role, you will be writing code to ingest and enrich data streams, manage a growing fleet of Thalo hardware, detect product issues, pipeline alerts, and communicate data and insights to customers.
