At Aircapture we’re creating and scaling a circular carbon economy to solve what we believe to be our lifetime's most pressing challenge: The climate crisis. We supply commercial and industrial customers with clean CO2 captured from our atmosphere to radically improve the environment, our economy, and our lives. We value building a team of people who represent diverse backgrounds--be it thought, education, gender, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation--to reach our goals. Thank you for considering us.
Are you curious and proactive, looking to gain hands-on experience in People Operations? This is an opportunity to support the People team at a fast-growing climate tech startup and learn how People Ops functions behind the scenes. You will gain exposure to onboarding, employee experience, HR systems, and core People programs, and support aspects of the hiring process–while developing strong management, communication, and problem-solving skills.
Pay rate: $25 per hour, plus up to $400 in travel reimbursement for those relocating from outside of the Bay Area.

- Assist with onboarding and offboarding processes to ensure a positive and organized employee experience
- Support the People team in maintaining and improving internal documentation and resources (e.g., Notion, policies, guides)
- Research and synthesize insights to support People programs such as engagement, learning and development, and job architecture
- Own 1-2 scoped summer projects focused on process improvement based on team priorities
- Provide general team support (e.g., scheduling, coordination, and operational or office-related tasks) to enable the company to run efficiently
- Jump on ad-hoc tasks as needed–this may include helping with day-today operational needs in a start-up environment
- Communicate and collaborate openly with team members across the company

What We Do
Aircapture’s modular, on-site technology captures climate-changing CO2 from the air, and puts it directly into our customers' production processes. The result is a greener, cleaner and cheaper product that can help their businesses go carbon neutral, or even negative. Previously, commercially available CO2 was produced and distributed only in ways that generate large amounts of greenhouse gas emissions, result in product impurities and include the often-substantial friction costs from transportation. For every tonne of delivered CO2, we estimate two or more tonnes of CO2 are emitted into the atmosphere, contributing to global warming and creating significant supply chain emissions, the cost of which are likely to materially increase. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions alone is not enough to avoid catastrophic climate change. Atmospheric carbon dioxide removal addresses legacy emissions and drives the development of critical, sustainable carbon-negative infrastructure. By utilizing atmospheric CO2, we can actually turn back the hands of time – reversing much of the damage that has already been done – while enabling our customers to economically build new carbon-to-value industries and alleviate energy poverty on a global scale. Our mission is to use Direct Air Capture (DAC) to help achieve these goals. DAC can be sited practically anywhere. There are no natural or technical limits to its scale, the quantity of carbon dioxide it removes is verifiable and it is cost-effective today
