Solutions Engineer

About the Role

Soil is one of the largest carbon sinks we have, and one of the hardest to measure. Our growing team is looking for a Solutions Engineer to deliver that measurement for the companies and project developers investing in regenerative agriculture. In this role, you'll own client projects from first conversation to delivered result, shape how our science is applied in the field, and turn what each project teaches us into a stronger product.

We're looking for someone curious about the science, rigorous with data and code and comfortable in front of a client: someone who enjoys owning a problem and seeing it through. You'll work alongside business development, data scientists and engineers, applying our methodology to real farms, real data and real deadlines. You will join a cross-functional, mission-driven team dedicated to bringing transparency and integrity to climate action.

Impact You’ll Own

Solutions Engineers provide a variety of services and deliverables to clients and internal stakeholders, owning the long-term success and impact of the solutions we build and use.

• Own client projects end to end: from scoping to delivered results, reports and maps, as the client’s technical counterpart in workshops and results presentations.
• Shape how carbon gets measured: design the sampling strategy and estimation approach for each project, from design-based to model-based, and make the calls that let our results stand up to the scrutiny of verifiers and carbon standards.
• Turn project work into product: identify what our pipeline should learn from each project, and build it into the shared codebase the team relies on.
• Sharpen our methodology: run the analyses that show how our methods perform and where they can improve, drawing on the latest research and standards in soil carbon.
• Enable long-term impact: results that can be traced and reproduced years later, with ex-post analyses showing how estimates hold up as new data comes in.
• Help set the standard: over time, lead projects with new approaches, define the practices our team builds on, and help clients and the industry raise the bar on how soil carbon is measured.

What You Bring

• 3+ years working with geospatial data in Python (e.g. GeoPandas, Rasterio, GEE) and GIS software (e.g. QGIS), in industry or applied research
• A solid foundation in statistics and machine learning applied to spatial or environmental data, such as sampling design, spatial modelling, model validation or uncertainty estimation
• Experience writing clean, collaborative code (Git, code reviews, reproducible workflows), using AI tools effectively and critically, and finding your way quickly in an existing codebase
• Experience owning projects end to end and making sound decisions when not everything is known
• Clear communication with technical and non-technical audiences, and a genuine drive to contribute to climate action
• Fluency in English

What Makes You Stand Out

• Geostatistics (e.g. kriging) or digital soil mapping
• Experience with soil, agricultural or remote sensing data
• Familiarity with carbon markets or standards such as Verra’s VM0042 or the EU CRCF
• Hands-on experience training and validating ML models for spatial prediction
• Client-facing experience, e.g. in consulting or technical pre-sales
• Production engineering practices such as CI/CD, testing or pipeline tooling
