Position Summary
Climate Change AI (CCAI) empowers a global community of innovators, practitioners, and decision-makers to accelerate responsible climate action through the use of AI, by addressing critical gaps in expertise, education, coordination, and research-to-deployment infrastructure. CCAI is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and is run by a small team of staff alongside a dedicated team of 50 volunteers hailing from five continents and bringing significant breadth and depth of expertise on both AI and climate change.

We are seeking a full-time paid Community Manager to facilitate community matching initiatives and oversee the organization of distributed events to support the organization’s mission. You will join a dedicated and mission-driven team of experts, and make a substantial contribution to how the organization and the CCAI community develop.

Applicants should also be amenable to working in a startup-style environment.

Day-to-day communication with most team members will be virtual, as the CCAI team is distributed worldwide. We are an interdisciplinary and international team and believe that diversity, inclusion, and equity are not only fundamental to the organization but also to progress in addressing climate change as a whole.
