Intelligest is an AI-powered SaaS platform revolutionising biomethane production. We help agricultural, industrial, and food waste plants optimise biomethane output by up to 30%, reduce operational costs by up to 20%, and unlock advanced operational visibility through data and analytics.
We address a critical global challenge: 70 billion tonnes of organic waste are produced annually, representing a massive decarbonisation opportunity. Biomethane is a scalable, immediate solution, and Intelligest is here to make it smarter, cleaner, and more profitable.
The Role
We are seeking a senior Biogas Expert Cofounder to join Intelligest as a core team member and co-founder-level contributor. This individual must be able to commit full-time, bring deep biogas industry experience, and help drive our mission during this critical pre-funding phase. Your expertise will be instrumental in guiding the technical development of our platform, especially in integrating biological processes with real-time data analytics and sensor systems.
The role will be compensated with a strong equity package and equity + salary from September once funding is secured.
Key responsibilities
* Biology-driven optimisation: work closely with the AI/ML team to integrate biological models into the optimisation tools.
* Sensor and data integration: support the SCADA/PLC systems integration to provide real-time biological process feedback.
* Collaboration and leadership: work alongside the founding team to define product features, data flows, and scalable system architecture rooted in real plant biology.
* Customer interaction: engage with partner facilities to test, iterate, and validate solutions in live environments to deliver results to the customers.
Must-have qualifications:
* 7+ years of experience and strong network in biogas.
* Demonstrated success with biological process control, sensor integration, and plant optimisation.
* Knowledge of anaerobic digestion microbiology and process chemistry.
* Comfort with early-stage startup risks and high uncertainty, must be committed to helping secure future funding.
* Willingness to work full-time on an equity-only basis in the initial phase for the first 3-6 months, before transitioning to a blended salary/equity model
Nice-to-have skills:
* Familiarity with AI/data-driven tools for process optimisation.
* Experience with SCADA/PLC, IIoT, and real-time monitoring systems.
* Past experience collaborating with software teams on industrial SaaS products.
* Mission-critical work: join the fight against climate change by transforming waste into renewable energy.
* Technology + Biology: bridge the gap between biological systems and AI-based optimisation.
* Co-founder trajectory: be a cornerstone hire during a critical moment of growth and transition.
* Future rewards: equity stake and opportunity for salary upon next funding round.
