Job Description:
Welcome to the Post Pollution Future with LanzaTechA
post-pollution world is inevitable, and people will either be part
of it, or the planet will go on without us. At LanzaTech, our
technology platform is transforming waste carbon into everyday
products, to meet the needs of this moment. Our science is
state-of-the-art, but the idea is simple. We use nature to heal
nature. We capture carbon emissions which are then fed into
bioreactors where trillions of carbon-hungry microbes go to work.
These tiny dynamos consume the waste gases and produce valuable raw
material commodities. Pure enough to be resold, repurposed, and
recycled again - from sustainable jet fuel to beverage bottles, to
yoga pants.Founded in New Zealand, we are a global women-led
company with an international footprint and a diverse employee
population. Diversity, Equity & Inclusion are a key part of our
mission and core values which we show through our hiring, our
leadership, our efforts to educate internally and willingness to
learn.Now a publicly traded company on NASDAQ, come join the team
