CDL Class A Tanker Driver/Side Operator Qualified

Job Description

Our mission is to return the atmosphere to 280 ppm CO???. We convert excess inedible biomass into carbon-rich bio-oil and inject it into underground storage for permanent carbon removal. At scale, we can use bio-oil to make fossil-free iron.

Our carbon removal efforts began in 2020 with initial purchases from customers like Stripe, Shopify, and Microsoft. Since then, we've scaled to thousands of tons of carbon removal, grown to over a hundred employees, and established three locations in San Francisco, Colorado, and Louisiana.

We're expanding our team of ambitious, creative, and hands-on problem solvers. We value psychological safety, collaboration, and continuous learning. We take calculated risks and treat mistakes as opportunities to improve. If you're excited about tackling big challenges, we encourage you to explore our company values.

Come help us reverse climate change. Gigatons or bust!

If the idea of hauling tanks of carbon-rich bio-oil and then jumping in to help inject it underground sounds like your kind of adventure, keep reading! Charm Industrial is scaling up our carbon removal fleet, and we need Class A CDL Drivers who aren't afraid to get their hands dirty while driving climate impact!
