Full Stack Software Engineer (Frontend Focused)

About Terraformation  
We’re a fast-growing startup that cares passionately about solving the climate crisis.    
Our mission is to reverse climate change by restoring the planet’s forests. We believe that native forest ecosystems are the most effective, safe, and scalable carbon capture systems on Earth. We work with partners all over the world to accelerate successful restoration projects and scale this climate solution. 
We’re innovating in both forest tech and green finance. We’ve developed accessible, low-cost solutions to native forest restoration, including off-grid seed banks to store millions of seeds anywhere, open-source software to measure tree health and growth, and accessible forestry training programs. We’re also developing novel financing structures to support local communities as they undertake restoration projects. 
We’re a unique mix of foresters, technology experts, and creative communicators brought together by our common mission.
