💰 Non Equity Assistance - Terradot on 2025-05

Science • Agriculture

Terradot is transforming nature’s silicate rock weathering process into a scalable, permanent carbon removal solution. The company advances Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW) by combining peer-reviewed biogeochemical science, calibrated measurement models, and deployment technologies to quantify and accelerate soil carbon sequestration. Terradot assembles research, commercial, and policy coalitions to deploy ERW at scale—initially focusing on the global tropics (e. g. , Brazil)—to support climate mitigation, food-system resilience, and sustainable development.

📋 Description

• Own regulated carbon market entry strategy — Drive regulator-aligned partnerships, MOUs, and methodology co-designs that open qualifying pathways into compliance carbon markets across target jurisdictions. • Produce and maintain market entry intelligence — Own the analytical framework and all regulatory content per target market, covering regulatory eligibility, timeline to first compliance revenue, key dependencies, and total addressable market sizing. • Lead alternative regulatory path positioning — Own the regulatory understanding and strategic positioning for our other tax benefits like 45Q, 45Z, Biofuels, including carbon intensity claims and MRV frameworks. • Engage and manage external policy stakeholders — Know when to bring in external consultants or lobbyists and how to manage them to deliver outcomes, not just advice. • Build cross-sector coalitions for ERW policy outcomes — Convene and align ERW and CDR peers, agricultural stakeholders, and industrial lobbies around shared regulatory priorities, translating broad support into coordinated advocacy that advances Terradot’s market-entry goals.

🎯 Requirements

• Deep knowledge of carbon removal policy in target markets: EU, US (California), UK, Canada, and Japan. • Fluency in carbon market mechanics — Article 6.2, 6.4, ITMOs, corresponding adjustments, JCM, CRCF unit types, MRV standards, and additionality frameworks. • Fluency in tax credit mechanisms, including 45Z and 45Q. • Demonstrated experience influencing technical regulatory documents. You have written consultation responses, methodology submissions, or position papers that have actually changed regulatory text. • Strong existing relationships that allow you to get a meeting without an intermediary at DG CLIMA, DG AGRI, CARB, METI, or equivalent bodies. • Proven ability to translate regulation into business opportunity and vice versa.

🏖️ Benefits

• All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law. • Research suggests that qualified people from historically marginalized groups may self-select out of opportunities if they don't meet 100% of the job requirements. We encourage individuals who believe they have the skills necessary to thrive to apply for this role.
