Remora is an early-stage climate tech startup, turning 2 million semi-trucks into carbon removal devices backed by Chris Sacca and Y Combinator. Our device captures the carbon emissions from semi-trucks. We sell the captured carbon dioxide to concrete producers and other end users, helping companies earn new revenue while meeting their climate commitments.&nbsp;
To date, 38% of the Fortune Global 500 have pledged to slash their emissions. For many of these companies, there is no way to meet these commitments without cutting supply chain emissions from semi-trucks.
That&rsquo;s why many of the world&rsquo;s largest fleets have signed up to use our technology. We&rsquo;re working with top trucking companies and some of the world's most recognizable Fortune 100 companies.&nbsp;
Our work aims to develop, implement, and research engineering practices, designs, and methods that support social and environmental justice.
Our founders include a former EPA scientist who pioneered mobile carbon capture during her Ph.D., and a former diesel mechanic turned engineer who built electric semi-trucks for some of the world&rsquo;s largest automotive companies.

We have chosen to take on the defining challenge of our time, and we don’t shy away from the hard decisions required to put our mission first, no matter how tough. The world needs our technology and it won’t happen any time soon if we don’t make it happen. We are a low-ego team, and we prioritize the mission over our self-interest. We think strategically with an eye to the long term, and we clearly separate what must be done well now, and what can be improved later, despite ambiguity.</li><li>Burning Urgency: Our hard-core intensity and work ethic match the crisis we’re in. We have a strong bias toward action, and we execute with focus and speed. In the absence of guidance, we take charge, lead our teammates, and accomplish our goals. We aren’t afraid to change course when something isn’t working, and we find solutions even when it seems like there are none. We are cool under pressure, and our quiet determination and drive are unwavering. We relentlessly push ourselves and each other to improve. We don’t accept adequate performance. Excellence is the expectation. Many would say our standards are unreasonably high, and many would say our goals are unreasonably bold, but we are hungry to be exceptional. We will never give up, no matter what. If we get knocked down, we get back up, every time. We will not fail.</li><li>Uncompromising Honesty: We are always honest with ourselves, our teammates, our customers, our investors, our suppliers, our communities, and all of our partners, especially about what’s not going well and what we don’t know. When we see issues, risks, or challenges, we speak up, and when we make mistakes, we admit them proactively and take full accountability. We challenge others directly when we disagree, even when it’s uncomfortable, and we seek this uncompromising honesty from others.</li><li>Treat People Exceptionally Well:We care intensely about everyone who is on this mission with us, and our standard is exceptional respect for our teammates, partners, and communities. Teammates who bring different perspectives and backgrounds are essential to our success, and we empower everyone to share their voice. We listen to truly understand. We constantly encourage and help our teammates, and inspire each other with our enthusiasm and optimism.</li><li>Joyful Curiosity: We love to learn, and we learn quickly. We explore the unknown with wonder and excitement. We reason from first principles. We generate original ideas with an open mind and test them quickly in the real world. We take risks and adapt as we discover more. We explore many ideas in parallel, and we don’t count on a silver bullet solution. We share our ideas freely with our teammates. We are skeptical about conventional wisdom, and we question every assumption and requirement. We are always looking for ways to simplify. We are rigorous and attentive to detail. We are eager to understand all aspects of our business and technology, and we contribute effectively outside our individual specialties. We never stop learning.</li></ul>&nbsp;Logistics:<ul><li>Location: Wixom, MI</li><li>Start date: Immediately</li></ul>&nbsp;Compensation and Benefits:<ul><li>Salary: $120,000 - $180,000</li><li>Competitive Stock Options</li><li>Healthcare (Aetna)</li><li>Retirement (401k)</li><li>Student loan assistance</li><li>Three Weeks of paid time off</li><li>Eleven Holidays off&nbsp;</li><li>Dependent care assistance (childcare or eldercare)</li><li>Parental leave</li><li>Unlimited sick and compassionate leave</li><li>Employee development and coaching</li><li>Office setup (remote) or relocation (in-person) stipend</li></ul><div>Studies show that many qualified candidates hesitate to apply unless they meet every listed qualification. If you’re enthusiastic about this role—even if you don’t meet every requirement—we encourage you to apply. We’re most excited to work with people who learn quickly and want to tackle the climate crisis.&nbsp;</div>
