Minimum is a Y Combinator backed start-up, founded to tackle the biggest challenge currently facing humanity: how to get the world to net zero carbon emissions before it's too late.

Our mission is to help companies understand their impact on the environment and collaborate with them to reduce this impact through a hybrid approach of innovative and sophisticated software solutions and world class sustainability expertise.

Minimum is a well-funded, high-growth startup with substantial (presently unannounced) funding from elite Silicon Valley and European investors. We are experiencing rapid traction with customers and prestigious global partners.

The Product

Minimum’s hybrid solution of cutting-edge sustainability software supplemented by best-in-class human know-how helps businesses achieve their sustainability goals fast.

We leverage powerful scaling effects of our sophisticated technology to empower our world class in-house experts to focus on impactful, high-value analysis and advice, getting companies up and running with an all-important baseline carbon footprint and reduction strategy in a matter of weeks, not months.

Our software tool is a holistic carbon management platform. It streamlines the data collection process, automates the calculations and displays the output reports. The flexibility of our data collection software allows us to customise the data collection process to specific customer's needs.

Our carbon calculations combine the customer's input data with the most appropriate emission factors, pulling from multiple datasets including leading government data sets, scientific reports and our own proprietary data. Where necessary, we fill gaps in the data with benchmarks and estimates based on the companies we have previously footprinted.

Our dashboards and reports are generated using the outputs of the calculations and are overseen by our sustainability experts.

The Opportunity

This opportunity is for a Senior Frontend Engineer.

This role reports to the Head of Engineering, but it's likely that you'll frequently interact with the Co-founder who is responsible for the entire Engineering & Product group.

The Team

We’re currently a small, close-knit engineering team, and we’re expecting to grow significantly over the coming months and years. As we keep scaling, we continue to make it our top priority to nurture and develop our Engineering culture.

We're looking for smart, driven engineers. If your experience doesn't quite match all of the points below but you feel you have a lot to offer the team, we'd love to hear from you.

Minimum is a fast-moving early-stage startup so it's essential that the pace and uncertainty is something you find engaging, energising, and motivating.
Strong preference for in-office collaboration: While we support a hybrid work model, we highly value face-to-face interactions and believe that being present in the office facilitates closer collaboration with other team members.

The Skillset - Nice to have

Knowledge of Python frameworks (e.g. Django) for occasional backend tasks
Experience working with remote teams.
Previous experience at an early-stage tech startup (especially if it was an B2B SaaS).
