Lifecycle/EPD Expert (Munich)

This is your once-in-a-lifetime chance to contribute to the first product- and manufacturer-agnostic, verified EPD tool on the market!

Ensure scientific correctness of our software and help us expand across product verticals.

At Emidat, we see that LCA expertise is an advantage in any role, so in the long run you can either become a senior expert in the LCA team, or you can choose to move to customer success, sales or product. Since we are a young, fast-growing company, early joiners who perform exceptionally well are best-positioned to later become our team-leads.

Admin:

• Time commitment: full-time
• Start date: ASAP
• Location: Munich

In the first 6 months, you will

• Closely work with the LCA team and external LCA experts to conduct lifecycle assessments and generate EPDs for newly onboarded product categories.
