JavaScript Job: Software Developer

We are Klim, a Berlin-based impact startup on the mission to scale up carbon farming as fast as possible across Europe and beyond. With an ambitious and mission-driven team, strong VC-backing, and great B2B partnerships we are ready to grow. We believe that Carbon Farming is the key to the future of agriculture and our planet. Don’t believe us? Watch Kiss the Ground to change your mind.

Our business model: We are enabling farmers to take on climate change, while turning their businesses more profitable and sustainable. This is made possible by the world's first digital platform for carbon farming as well as related B2B carbon offsetting services, including a Klim food label.

Backed by leading European investors, including Atlantic Food Labs, Ananda Impact Ventures and Wi Venture, and after building an MVP (iOS & Android hybrid app and web app), we are now looking for a passionate Javascript developer to add to our tech team.
