Job description
Who We Are
Gravity is powering the decarbonization of industry by helping businesses and their supply chain partners manage and reduce their carbon footprint. Our energy and carbon management platform makes it easy and cost-effective for companies to measure their emissions, implement tangible reduction projects with vetted vendors, and reduce both energy and emissions. We align the incentives and actors in a disconnected landscape to make real emissions reduction happen. Founded by leaders from generational startups, physical operators, and star academics, Gravity is backed by top VCs. On the strength of a differentiated product, we have quickly grown to serve hundreds of customers across the world, from Fortune 500s to global energy majors to leading financial institutions.
The Opportunity
Gravity is seeking a pragmatic, versatile, and curious energy engineer for our Energy and Decarbonization team.
The energy and decarbonization team enables our customers to discover, evaluate, and support implementation of energy management and decarbonization projects across their operations. We work closely with our climate strategy, product, and engineering teams to find ways to streamline the assessment and implementation of win-win projects for our customers.
