About the company:
Position: Technical Product Manager (MRV)
Location: In person in San Francisco, CA, with frequent travel to Brazil
Languages: English Required
This role will be responsible for leading the development and execution of our Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) products, ensuring they evolve from scientific research into scalable, working solutions. By bridging the gap between science, engineering, and data teams, this role will drive the delivery of our 0-1 MRV and lay the foundation for future iterations. Success in this role will accelerate the pace of innovation, streamline processes, and allow our technical experts to focus on solving core challenges while ensuring the MRV system scales efficiently and cost-effectively.
Role Responsibilities:
Deliver 0-1 MRV Product – Own the execution of the first commercial MRV products, ensuring we generate the data needed to register carbon credits and scale confidently.
Drive Cross-Functional Execution – Coordinate efforts across physical science, data science, and engineering to align priorities, remove bottlenecks, and accelerate progress.
Develop & Maintain Roadmap – Create a clear and credible roadmap for future versions of Terradot’s MRV products, setting the foundation for a more scalable and lower-cost system while continually decreasing measurement uncertainty.
Implement Agile & Execution Processes – Establish sprint rituals, tracking mechanisms, and development swimlanes to ensure smooth execution across teams.
Close Engineering Gaps – Work with recruiting and leadership to identify and hire the right engineering talent needed to scale MRV effectively.
Scale Analytical Measurement Capacity – Develop a cohesive strategy for process scale-up (including field, lab & data), ensuring that research and validation efforts translate into scalable systems while maintaining quality.
Accelerate MRV Team Productivity – Remove administrative and execution burdens from technical experts, allowing them to focus on solving core scientific and engineering challenges.
Background and Requirements:
3+ years of experience in technical program management, product management, or engineering leadership, ideally in climate tech, ag-tech, deep tech, or scientific software.
Proven ability to lead 0-1 product execution in a highly technical, ambiguous, and multi-disciplinary environment.
Strong technical background with experience managing engineering, data, and scientific teams (e.g., software, data pipelines, or research-based products).
Experience in agile methodologies, sprint execution, and roadmap planning.
Familiarity with MRV (Measurement, Reporting, and Verification) systems or similar data-driven frameworks is a plus.
Experience working in agricultural systems or scaling ag-tech products is a plus
Experience scaling early-stage research into operational systems is a strong advantage.
Exceptional stakeholder management and cross-functional coordination skills.
Personal Attributes:
Strategic thinker who can balance short-term execution with long-term vision.
Highly collaborative leader who thrives in a cross-functional environment, working closely with scientists, engineers, and leadership.
Strong problem solver who excels at breaking down complex challenges into structured, executable solutions.
Action-oriented and outcome-driven, with a bias toward moving fast and removing roadblocks.
Resilient and adaptable, able to navigate uncertainty and shifting priorities in a fast-paced space.
Excellent communicator, able to translate technical challenges into clear priorities and execution plans.
This role is an opportunity to shape the future of MRV systems and carbon removal technology while working with an ambitious, mission-driven team. If you’re excited about accelerating the transition to scalable carbon removal solutions, we’d love to hear from you!
