At Indigo, our mission is: harnessing nature to help farmers sustainably feed the planet. We started down this path leveraging microbiology, but we have quickly expanded across the entire agriculture supply chain.

Indigo Carbon and the broader Terraton Initiative is the most explicit expression of our sustainability goals yet. Our goal – as laid out in this video from our CEO – is to remove 1 trillion tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, sequester it in agricultural soils, and by doing that, improve the health of the soil, the profitability of farmers, the quality of our food, and the health of our planet.

It takes a diverse team to achieve this massive goal. If you’ve been looking for a company that moves at the speed of Silicon Valley and is explicitly taking on climate change, we’d love to hear from you.

As our Carbon Certification Manager, you will be the backbone of Indigo’s push to build solutions that activate businesses and consumers to join this mission. If you are detail-oriented, embrace cutting-edge challenges, communicate comfortably with smart peers and senior executives, and are excited about helping drive a business that will enable a groundbreaking solution to climate change, then this could be the perfect fit.
