About the Job
We're H2 Everywhere, a climatetech startup building distributed, modular clean hydrogen production systems. Our mission is to make green hydrogen affordable and accessible, enabling decarbonization for hard-to-electrify industries.
The Role
We're seeking a hands-on, strategic technical co-founder/CTO to lead our R&D and engineering efforts as we scale from lab prototype to commercial deployment. You'll own the technical roadmap for our breakthrough thermocatalytic hydrogen production process while building and leading a world-class engineering team. This role combines deep technical leadership with entrepreneurial execution in a fast-growing market.
Key Responsibilities
Own end-to-end technology roadmap for modular H₂ production system
Lead scale-up and process engineering for our proprietary catalyst technology
Lead design, prototyping, and scale-up of core reactor and system components
Build and manage multidisciplinary engineering/R&D team (chemical, mechanical, systems, and controls)
Work closely with CEO and advisors to define product-market strategy, technical milestones, and capital strategy
Drive IP strategy, regulatory compliance, and technology validation programs
Ensure adherence to safety, environmental, and quality standards
Qualifications
PhD, MS, or BS in chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, materials science, or a related field
8+ years in industrial R&D, hardware startups, or cleantech scale-up
Deep experience with catalysis, reactor design, and/or hydrogen systems
Proven track record scaling laboratory technology to pilot/commercial deployment
Strong project leadership and team-building ability
Entrepreneurial mindset with bias toward rapid execution and problem-solving
About the Company

H2 Everywhere
H2 Everywhere builds modular onsite hydrogen production units that make affordable green hydrogen on-site via thermocatalysis. We enable affordable, infrastructure-free hydrogen production at point of use, eliminating up to 70% of delivered hydrogen costs by removing the need for pipelines, and pressurized and cryogenic transport. Our process operates at low temperatures and pressures, consumes significantly less energy than electrolysis, and can utilize recycled CO₂ and non-purified water, reducing emissions and resource demand in hard-to-decarbonize sectors like shipping, aviation, and heavy industry.
