I used ClimateTechList during my recent job transition from one climate tech company to another. It was an extremely helpful tool to find a vast number of quality opportunities, and the advance filtering and searching made it simple to hone down on exactly what I was looking for. If you want to work on the greatest challenge humanity is facing, ClimateTechList is a fantastic place to start looking!

As a consultant and coach to tech teams in the climate space, I check ClimateTechList to find new clients and see what companies are growing their teams. The information available about the companies and the quick links to my LinkedIn connections make this my go-to research tool when exploring new organizations.

Thanks Steven! I wasn't really considering climate tech as a career pathway until I read your post and article about starting from first principles in thinking about what I want in a career. Now, I realized that the spark I was missing in my career (which I once had and lost) is EXACTLY what you described in your Linkedin post about first principle decision making.
— Jason Wang, Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer
Thanks for compiling all the great resources related to climate tech into one place - very helpful for folks like me who are newly acquainted with this field yet have a keen interest and don't know where to start. I listened to a few episodes of MCJ over the weekend and I was fascinated by the decarbonizing cement episode.
— Liana Lei, Consultant at Boston Consulting Group
I started exploring climate tech as a mechanical engineer last year, and Boston Climate Tech & ClimateTechList was one of the most useful tools in exploring the ecosystem. It was a wonderful one-stop shop! I went to several exploration and networking events, found relevant jobs and companies, and was connected to other important resources that helped me in my career transition.
I specifically want to call out brilliance of the job board being hosted on a daily-updated Airtable base — I haven't found any other job board that gives this level of customization to be able to search for queries such as "(Job location contains MA or Job Location contains CA) AND (Job title contains mechanical engineer or Job title contains hardware engineer or Job title contains system engineer)".
This is really helpful to all hardware engineers and me specifically as a person who wants to wear many hats and not looking for a typical role.
