Planetary Technologies’ vision is to restore the climate and heal the ocean for generations to come. We do this by enhancing the ocean’s natural ability to fight climate change through carbon dioxide removal and storage. Our team combines expertise in ocean science, metallurgy and geochemistry to safely and effectively scale up ocean-based CO2 management solutions. Working collaboratively with all of our stakeholders, we develop a cost-effective and sustainable set of tools aimed at protecting and restoring our oceans and climate, ultimately doing carbon dioxide removal and storage at gigatonne scale.
We are leaders, scientists, and engineers working together to collectively embody our values: respect, curiosity & creativity, accept responsibility, and win for all.
We are now seeking a project manager to represent Planetary in the Chesapeake Bay area as part of a NOAA-funded project. This means building and growing momentum around our work in Virginia, which encompasses modeling ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE), monitoring and testing ocean chemistry, integration with wastewater facilities, and development of monitoring, reporting, and verification systems for OAE.
Core Responsibilities
- Managing the various Planetary project activities in the Chesapeake Bay, including operational monitoring, performance reporting of pilot projects
- Strong stakeholder management, communicating effectively with diverse groups including scientists, government officials, and local communities

- Managing contractors and partners in Virginia, including work visualization/ project management tool updates, organizing team meetings, recruitment, and decision-making
- Sourcing materials and equipment for the successful execution of projects and managing project budgets and financial reporting
- Coordinating ocean research work with other Planetary partners around the world
- Further supporting the strategic development of North American projects
- Work with regulatory agencies to ensure site compliance with all environmental health and safety requirements for the project, which include meeting with regulatory authorities and preparing any necessary documentation.
About You
