CTO & Co-founder for greentech startup

Salary Unpaid
Equity To be negotiated

Looking for: a technology-oriented problem-solver with an analytical, curious and can-do mindset, who wants to be part of an early-stage startup, with a mission to make positive impact at scale.


🌎 Mission: Making sustainability a default. 

Our ambition is to help consumers globally make sustainable purchase decisions and encourage companies to transition to sustainable production practices - so that the word sustainability no longer needs to be used. Simply put, we make sustainability a default. 

Product: Archr is an ecosystem of sustainability solutions, offering a sustainability comparison platform on product-level and a SaaS-solution (for companies), giving consumers the ability to easily make informed purchase decisions. Through the utilization of technology, Archr connects and creates value for various stakeholders in a transparent, objective, and scalable way.


Team:

  • The team consists of two co-founders, one sustainability researcher, and one front-end developer. Everyone has 1-2 years of professional experience from various areas like sustainability, technology, marketing/sales and project management (Nordea, Etikivest, Klimatstudenterna, CSG, SSCA).

  • Been part of SSE Business Lab (Ideate and Activate) where companies like Klarna and Voi also started their journey.

  • Backed by experts in the technology and sustainability field.


Stage:

  • An early-stage startup founded in February 2022.

  • Have created the sustainability rating system for products and services.

  • Found product-market fit.

  • About to launch the first version very soon. 

  • Looking for investment in order to scale.


Position:

  • Being part of creating the foundations for Archr’s strategy within technology, including infrastructure and database management.

  • Lead product development while at the same time being hands-on in making our solution a reality. Especially within the backend, where most of your time will be spent.

  • Being responsible for the existing developer team, recruiting new tech-talents, test and optimize user experience, and having an ability to make things happen (strong doer).

  • Wearing many hats, therefore, being able and willing to learn fast rather than having all knowledge and experience at hand.

  • You love problem-solving and have the mentality that nothing is impossible, and always being willing to test various routes to get to our end goal. 


Requirements:

  • Archr values interest and willingness to learn over knowledge and experience. However, having an entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for the intersection of sustainability / technology comes natural to you.

  • Being able to code in usual languages like Javascript, React, CSS, HTML.

  • Strong technology knowledge and experience, background in computer science/ software engineering (with a focus as a backend developer).

  • Experience in establishing infrastructure, managing databases, creating API:s and algorithms is meriting.


🌱 Why you should join us:

  • An agile and collaborative company with high growth potential, developing the first easy-to-understand sustainability scale for consumers (and companies).

  • Becoming part of the startup-life and getting exposure to investors and industry experts.

  • Minimal hierarchy and lots of ownership - all founders work side by side to help co-create the next greentech unicorn.

  • Creating something you are proud of which also contributes to actual positive impact on consumers lives, society, and our planet at scale!


The position is half to full-time with an equity stake. Salary will be paid upon investment.

Working at
Archr Sustainability AB

Archr’s vision is to make sustainability into a default by helping consumers globally make sustainable purchase decisions. As conscious consumers ourselves, we find it very difficult to make sustainable choices. There is no way to compare products on sustainability as companies use different ways of communicating sustainability impact, and as consumers we don't have the capacity to research what products are actually sustainable. Thus, we created a unique scoring method that makes it possible to compare products on sustainability on a scale from 1-10, via our SaaS-solution and platform. In short, we are the Google Translate for Sustainability. Through our subscription-based SaaS-solution, companies can showcase our scores directly on their websites. This solution helps companies communicate sustainability impact on product-level in an easy way, enhance brand reputation, and avoid greenwashing.
