We’re Thalo Labs, a NYC-based company on a mission to transform the built environment into a powerful tool for fighting climate change. Where others see buildings as part of the problem, we see an incredible opportunity to leverage existing infrastructure to not only accelerate drawdown, but to transform the built environment from one of the biggest carbon emitters to a carbon sink. Our technology combines proprietary sensing, software, and capture systems to accurately measure, significantly reduce, and directly capture a building’s onsite greenhouse gasses in real time.
Our team has built self-driving cars at Waymo, worked on satellite imagery at Google, designed systems for John Deere, developed space missions for NASA, engineered bikes for Peloton, led manufacturing design for Boom Supersonic jets, and more. We are united by our shared goal of making products that help us decarbonize today and accelerate drawdown globally. As the Marketing & Communications Lead, you'll spearhead our marketing efforts and establish a cohesive brand narrative for Thalo Labs. You’ll be responsible for building our public image, uniting our cutting edge product offerings under a compelling brand story, and engaging external stakeholders through strategic communication.
Your passion for storytelling will drive you to tackle both big-picture strategies and hands on content creation. If you're eager to grow a pioneering climate tech startup in Brooklyn, let's chat!
