The posting

We are Skytree

Skytree enables a transition to a world with cleaner Air for everyone. We do this by developing and deploying smart technology that captures atmospheric carbon dioxide, enabling its use or storage to combat climate change and aid society and businesses around the world.

Born out of the European Space Agency (ESA), we are a global team of highly talented scientists, engineers and business professionals, supported by an experienced management team. Our working culture is based on a dynamic and smart approach to business with an open and understanding attitude to others and a desire to expand the boundaries of what is possible.

Please note:

  • Internship duration: 6 months, 36-40 hours a week.
  • Start date: January 2026 (flexible, an earlier or later start can be discussed).
  • This position does not meet the criteria for employer sponsorship, therefore we are unable to support work permit or residency applications.
  • You must be based in the Netherlands, ideally near Amsterdam.
  • A monthly internship allowance of 550 EUR, lunch allowance and transportation allowance are provided. Accommodation is not provided.

Rather than focusing on a single narrow topic, this internship offers a hands-on, end-to-end view of what it takes to turn Direct Air Capture into verified climate action and credible carbon credits. As we enter a new phase of growth, we are looking for a driven student/recent graduate to work side by side with our Sustainability & Project Engineer across: (1) Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), (2) Carbon removal certification, (3) Climate policy, and (4) Corporate sustainability.

Through these areas, you will learn and support by:

  • Helping build the LCA of our DAC machine, from collecting material and process data to modelling and interpreting the results, for both CCU and CDR applications. You'll learn how LCA methodology is applied to a real, first-of-a-kind climate technology and how the results shape design and business decisions.
  • Supporting the certification of our CDR projects with an MRV body, for example by preparing documentation and data. You'll learn from the inside how carbon removal credits are created, verified and brought to market.
  • Following EU ETS and CRCF developments together with our policy team and join policy meetings. You'll learn how EU policy shapes the carbon removal industry and how a climate tech company engages with policymakers.
  • Assisting with calculating Skytree's Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions following the GHG Protocol and with preparing our ESG report, learning the basics of corporate carbon accounting.
  • Gaining hands-on experience at one of the most innovative climate tech start-ups in Amsterdam, working on direct air capture.

What we’re looking for:

  • Pursuing/recently graduated from a Bachelor’s/Master’s degree (Master’s preferred) in engineering, environmental science or another STEM field, ideally with a focus on sustainability. Coming from a different background? If you have experience with LCA, climate change or DAC, we'd still love to hear from you.
  • Passionate about climate action and enjoy working with data.
  • Curious and enjoys variety: you are excited to switch between technical, policy and reporting topics.
  • Detail-oriented with a high degree of accuracy.
  • Strong communication skills in English.
  • Ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.
  • Experience with LCA (e.g. SimaPro, openLCA, Brightway), carbon accounting or climate policy is a plus!
  • You are already based in the Netherlands, within commuting distance to Amsterdam.
  • You are allowed to work in The Netherlands without any restrictions.

What you can expect

  • Apart from working with great colleagues, you can also expect:
  • A unique start-up environment offering organic professional and personal growth at one of the most innovative cleantech companies in Amsterdam!
  • A diverse (30+ nationalities) and fun team to work with.
  • A passionate and highly knowledgeable People & Places team supporting you in your professional and personal growth
  • A monthly allowance of EUR 550 + lunch allowance and travel cost reimbursement.
  • A vibrant office close to the Science Park train station (5 minute walk!), as well as close to the highway.
  • Access to the Science Park and Amsterdam University cafeterias (and all the great and healthy meal options).
  • Fun activities, organized by our very own Champagne Committee (e.g. a cooking class or Canal Adventures at the heart of the city center).
  • Healthy snacks and drinks provided in-office.

Note: for this position we cannot offer work permit / visa sponsorship. We can consider applicants relocating from within Europe, however we do not offer a relocation package / remuneration in case you would need to move to The Netherlands for this internship. Thanks for your understanding.
