Impact Analyst, Oil and Gas Sector

• Integrate remote sensing data with complementary datasets to contextualize emissions and support equipment-level attribution of methane plumes
• Conduct quantitative and qualitative analysis of methane emissions, emissions inventories, and related sectoral data, translating findings into clear, actionable narratives
• Analyze methane mitigation policies and regulations by assessing the effectiveness of existing initiatives and identifying gaps or opportunities for improvement
• Support the Impact team through stakeholder engagement, project management, and development of reports, briefings, and other materials

This role helps expand the use and understanding of Carbon Mapper's methane data to drive meaningful emissions reductions in the oil and gas sector, contributing to the global effort to curb climate-warming emissions.

• Bachelor's degree in Atmospheric Science, Environmental Science, Engineering, or related field required; Master's degree preferred (or equivalent experience)
• 2-3 years of experience working on projects related to methane, greenhouse gases, energy, or environmental research, ideally including data analysis and project management within the oil and gas sector
• Experience using data analysis tools such as R, Python, and/or Jupyter Notebooks to visualize and interpret results, with basic familiarity with geospatial tools such as ArcGIS or QGIS
• Strong research and quantitative analysis skills with proficiency in data analysis and understanding of basic statistical methods

The total compensation for this opportunity includes a base salary range of $90,000 – $100,000/year. As a Carbon Mapper employee, you will have access to a wide range of benefits including affordable health coverage (medical, dental, vision), a generous time-off policy, professional development, and more.

Carbon Mapper is a non-profit organization with the mission to drive greenhouse gas emission reductions by making methane and carbon dioxide data accessible and actionable. They leverage remote sensing technology to detect, pinpoint, and quantify methane and carbon dioxide emissions at the scale of individual facilities.
