About Ammobia
Ammobia is on a mission to revolutionize the ammonia industry. We are a seed-stage startup developing Haber Bosch 2.0 – a next-generation ammonia synthesis process enabling cost-effective, clean ammonia production. Until now, ammonia production has been a highly polluting, steady-state, high inertia process. We are developing new regimes of physics and plant design that require dynamic processes, especially for ammonia production from intermittent renewable energy sources. Clean ammonia will support ammonia’s growing role in our decarbonized world, tackling some of the most difficult to abate sectors including chemicals, fertilizers, and heavy-duty transportation. We are supported by leading climate tech organizations including Starlight Ventures, Collaborative Fund, Third Derivative, Forbes 30u30, and more.
Job Description
Passionate about climate change and eager to co-shape the future of an early-stage start up? You will work on a small engineering team focused on achieving world-best performance from our reactors while maintaining safety and reliability. With a large sense of individual ownership, you will be responsible for driving projects to completion. Responsibilities will be tailored to your experience and interests and may include:
Who You Are
We’re looking for excited and value-aligned science and engineering students with a research focus. Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Analysis and other related majors are most applicable to this role. We are particularly interested in those with experience working in a research lab with physical systems, collecting and presenting data, and building tools to advance research. Applicants will be asked to demonstrate boundary-pushing experiences in their academic or professional careers.
Requirements
Successful applicants will have most of the following:
Nice-to-Have
The position will be full-time with a minimum 10-week commitment and potential to start part- time sooner. The position will be in majority in-person in San Francisco, CA including some business travel. Apply via ammobia.co/careers.
Who we are
We are a small and passionate team of scientists and engineers. We value teamwork,
accountability, open communication, and rapid iteration. We emphasize career growth, mutual feedback, and a fun and exciting working environment. Check out ammobia.co/careers for our full values statement and ammobia.co/team to learn more about us.
