Job Description
Come and do your life's work - Why we do what we do

Phlair unleashes CO2's potential through breakthrough innovation. We rapidly deploy Direct Air Capture technology, facilitating the removal and reuse of CO2 at scale.

For decades, fossil fuels served as the backbone and feedstock of our economy - with the downside of polluting our atmosphere. We invert this equation by developing a cost-efficient and scalable electrochemical Direct Air Capture (DAC) technology. We have cracked the nut here by developing a breakthrough hydrolizer for acid/base regeneration, allowing us to capture CO2 from ambient air for either permanent storage or as a precursor for CO2-negative chemicals. For this, we collaborate with leading customers like Frontier Climate, Stripe, Shopify and Klarna.

We are looking for highly ambitious and motivated individuals who are ready to work their off to have a lasting impact on the planet. Your ideas will set the foundation and shape the future of our company.

At Phlair we're committed to creating a high-performing and inclusive environment where every voice is heard and valued: You can find more on our culture here.

Join our team of world-class scientists, engineers and passionate entrepreneurs. All qualified applicants are given fair consideration and women are strongly encouraged to apply - Come as you are!
