Product Manager - Software Automation

Deep Sky is a Canadian company focused on carbon removal, with a mission to accelerate the development and deployment of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies. The company acts as a project developer and financier, identifying and scaling the most promising carbon capture approaches to help address the climate crisis. Deep Sky works to bridge the gap between early-stage carbon removal technologies and large-scale commercial deployment. The company partners with leading carbon removal technology providers to build and operate carbon capture facilities, with a focus on rigorous measurement, reporting, and verification of carbon removal outcomes. Deep Sky aims to make high-quality, permanent carbon removal accessible to corporate buyers seeking credible offsets and climate solutions. Their approach emphasizes scientific integrity and long-term durability of carbon storage. Deep Sky is distinguished by its focus on next-generation carbon removal methods, including enhanced weathering, direct air capture, and other novel CDR pathways. By concentrating development efforts in Canada, where favorable geology and energy resources support large-scale carbon storage, the company positions itself as a key infrastructure builder in the emerging carbon removal industry.
