AI Carbon Accounting Developer

Chloe Schneider

Full-time · Job · Berlin

About the role

Carbon accounting is mandatory for thousands of EU companies, but most don't have the technical infrastructure to measure their emissions accurately. Scope 1 and 2 are straightforward — measure your fuel and electricity. Scope 3 is where it gets complex — tracking emissions across your entire supply chain, from raw materials to product disposal. As a junior carbon accounting developer, you'll build the data pipelines that calculate Scope 3 emissions: ingesting supplier activity data, applying emission factors from standardized databases, handling unit conversions across measurement systems, and generating the disclosure-ready reports that companies submit to regulators. Carbon accounting combines environmental science with data engineering. You'll learn emission calculation methodologies, greenhouse gas protocol standards, and the practical challenges of measuring something that spans global supply chains. It's technical work with direct climate impact.
