About Thryve.Earth

We are building a tech-enabled platform (building software, and setting up operations) to seed and develop an order of magnitude more nature based carbon projects, in order to deliver significant GHG positive outcomes, and co-benefits in the long run. We are an eclectic mix of carbon specialists and scientists, product leaders and engineers, and business professionals; more importantly – we are nature lovers, and students, i.e. we learn every day to play our part in our broader collective journey. We are venture backed – funded by leading venture capital firms and marquee angels, and are building the foundational team right now.

Position overview

We are looking to hire specialists at the intersection of nature based solutions x carbon, with experience working in tropical forestry systems in Southeast Asia (SEA), to lead the technical analysis and design of carbon project opportunities (Natural Climate Solutions) within the Thryve portfolio and ecosystem. For this particular role, the specialist would over index on also becoming our in-house expert when it comes to methodologies of the main standards in the carbon markets.

Responsibilities

1) Act as our in-house ‘Expert’ in methodologies and standards

• Understand the ins and outs of AFOLU methodologies set up by various standards (Verra, Gold Standard, Plan Vivo, SRN – Indonesia among others) in the carbon market
• Distill requirements, and develop workflows for delineating eligibility criteria
• Support in methodology selection for carbon estimation, and assessing ‘additionality’
• Be the ‘ask me anything’ person for rest of the origination and technical teams when it comes to methodologies and standards

2) Lead carbon project technical development

• Collaborate with the project implementers, consultants and service providers to deliver required technical analysis (pre-feasibility and feasibility studies) for projects launched in multiple countries across SEA
• Build templates for calculating GHG emission reductions and removal potential of conservation & restoration initiatives
• Codify back-end data structures required to streamline the technical analysis e.g. methodology applicability, carbon yield calculations etc
• Co-design project activities along with project implementers following the applicable carbon standards and methodologies
• Oversee the technical aspects of monitoring, reporting and verification activities
• Guide other team members and provide inputs on project design
• Travel as required to project sites in Southeast Asia, and other parts of the world as we evolve

3) Innovate to support and deliver new ways of working:

• Identify challenges in current approaches to technical analysis, design and implementation
• Co-develop solutions with the carbon, product and engineering teams including QA/QC, gathering feedback and iterating on offering

4) Educate team and stakeholders, to build capacity in the ecosystem:

• Support the wider team in gaining a deeper understanding of processes used at various stages of the analysis and design of carbon projects
• Create collateral for various stakeholders to streamline the on-boarding process and on-going implementation of analysis and design.

Qualifications

• In-depth knowledge of carbon standards: proficient in Verra, Gold Standard or Plan Vivo standards with a deep understanding of their AFOLU methodologies and modules
• Project and baseline estimation skills: ability to accurately estimate project outcomes and baselines in the context of carbon credit projects
• Data analysis and modeling: experience researching and interpreting scientific data (e.g. allometric data) and implementing common modelling approaches to carbon and/or other ecosystem services. (Proficient in quantitative analysis and modeling, preferably with experience in software like Python or R)
• GIS expertise: proficiency in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for spatial analysis and mapping
• Carbon project development: experience in the development, implementation, and management of carbon projects
• At least 2 years of working experience in forestry, peatlands – both conservation and restoration, with a strong knowledge of natural resource management (preferred in Southeast Asia)
• Master’s Degree in forestry, ecology, agronomy, natural resource management, environmental sciences, conservation, or another relevant field
• Demonstrated ability to work effectively in a remote setup, showcasing adaptability and self-motivation
• Strong communication and collaboration skills
