Building systems to remove carbon dioxide from air at industrial scale. Backed by Y Combinator.
About the role
AirMyne is a Series A Direct Air Capture (DAC) startup aiming to develop the most readily scalable and cost-competitive DAC process. By employing widely available industrial technologies and equipment, and by creating an energy-flexible process, we hope to overcome barriers to scale such as material supply chains, cost and availability of clean energy, and plant capacity factors. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- B.S. in Mechatronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related field
- Experience designing a control system, selecting appropriate actuators and instrumentation, and executing on a safe & clean build
- Happy to get hands dirty with prototype builds, commissioning, testing, and process optimization
- Strong documentation, organization, and communication skills
- Organized and disciplined about equipment safety, electrical safety, and clean build practices
More about this role
AirMyne is a Series A Direct Air Capture (DAC) startup aiming to develop the most readily scalable and cost-competitive DAC process. By employing widely available industrial technologies and equipment, and by creating an energy-flexible process, we hope to overcome barriers to scale such as material supply chains, cost and availability of clean energy, and plant capacity factors. Our engineering team has spent the last four years refining our process into a full integrated system, and we are on our way to an outdoor pilot funded by the California Energy Commission.
We are now looking to expand our team with a Mechatronics / Automation Engineer who will design, build, automate, and operate prototype systems ranging from lab scale up to roughly the size of a shipping container. The ideal candidate will be comfortable working hands-on across mechanical, electrical, and controls systems, able to independently own prototype builds, and effective at communicating design decisions to deployment teams.
- Design, build, wire, commission, and troubleshoot the electrical and control architecture for prototype systems from bench scale to shipping-container scale
- Develop automation for...
