Job Description

Hi! Earthshot Labs is an open-source community for data scientists, software engineers, investors, and domain experts developing tools for planetary-scale regeneration. We're just now forming a public benefit corporation to continue product development and release our next iteration of regenerative investing and proprietary data tools, and we're looking for contributors!

Earthshot App: The Earthshot app/web app MVP will allow users to easily donate money to plant trees with our internal tree planting operations and with key partners like Eden Reforestation. We will follow with additional fintech features that replace existing services (investing, banking, credit cards, etc) with ecological alternatives as the user base grows.

Data science: We currently have an amazing back-end technology team of ~15 active volunteers, and will be starting to hire key contributors in the coming month as we secure funding for team expansion. We use google earth engine to overlay datasets (climate, terrain, political, etc) to derive insights about regenerative land management and investment opportunities and to scale permaculture-style restoration. However, in addition to these open-source ecological tools, we realized that building consumer-facing opportunities to engage with ecological restoration is an important aspect of the movement.

Earthshot Labs is a new project, only started in Nov 2020. The ideal scenario is someone who can volunteer for 30-60 days (part time or full time) until we close additional funding so we have time to get to know and see if it's a good fit for a longer-term team.

If you are up for a deeply supportive, collaborative climate and ecological project, send us a note! Please join our slack channel to engage with the community of investors, entrepreneurs, technologists, and anyone excited to learn more about nature-based climate solutions and large-scale land regeneration.

Of course, we prioritize diversity in our community and hiring: BIPOC, LGBTQ+, gender balance, and global reach are deeply important for the planetary scale of impact and to harness the creative potential of deeply aligned people with varied backgrounds.

Just join the slack channel and post on the #intro channel to schedule a call with Troy and Patrick, or one of our tech leads. https://join.slack.com/t/earthshotclimate/shared_invite/zt-ki2e69ci-ZwO~frvEEmWEgGbgSSdntw
