About us

Carbon Lock Tech is a Manitoba-based start-up focused on developing systems and processes for accelerating the removal and sequestration of atmospheric carbon. The increasing accumulation of carbon emissions in the atmosphere – in the form of carbon dioxide or methane – is a major driver of climate change. Solutions are needed to both reduce current emissions and draw existing carbon out of the atmosphere.

Carbon Lock Tech's current carbon dioxide removal (CDR) strategy involves the conversion of organic matter into a stable form of biocarbon. The company is looking to advance its prototype technologies and implement strategies for scale-up and commercialization. Carbon Lock Tech is supported by the National Research Council, Sustainable Development Technology Canada, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, and the Government of Manitoba..

Duties

This position will provide "hands on" engineering support to the design and development of prototype systems capable of accepting, pre-processing and carbonizing biomass/organic material into stable biocarbon. This may involve conducting literature reviews, developing experiments and tests, managing the purchase and fabrication of equipment, and the desigining, assembling, commissioning and testing prototypes (and other duties as assigned). There will also be a specific need to develop and design systems for syngas and pyrolysis oil capture and conversion into heat energy. The position will play an important role in furthering the company's scale up strategies from pilot project to demonstration site.

Salary: Can offer a competitive salary and benefits commensurate with experience and ability.
