The posting

Department Summary

The Institute for Carbon Management (ICM) at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) is a cross-campus technology translation organization focused on accelerating carbon management solutions from laboratory discovery to pre-commercial and commercial-scale deployment. ICM advances technologies across two primary domains: 1. Carbon dioxide removal, utilization, and avoidance, and decarbonization of foundational industries such as cement and steel. 2. Development of new supply chains and processing pathways for critical materials (e.g., Li, Ni, Co, Mn, Mo) that enable the clean energy transition while reducing the carbon footprint of extractive processes. ICM operates through agile, convergent action teams that integrate engineering, science, and systems analysis. These teams have contributed to award-winning technologies, including the NRG COSIA Carbon XPRIZE and the Liveability Challenge, and have enabled the formation of multiple spin-out companies such as CarbonBuilt Inc., Concrete-AI Inc., and Equatic Inc. Position Summary

ICM is seeking a Systems Engineer to join an integrated, multidisciplinary team conducting rigorous, quantitative assessments of carbon management technologies, including carbon capture, utilization, storage, and carbon dioxide removal systems. The work spans technical, economic, environmental, infrastructure, and policy dimensions to evaluate real-world deployment potential and scalability of emerging technologies. Research Engineers will focus on applied, integrative analysis that supports technology evaluation, deployment strategy development, and decision-making frameworks for carbon management systems. They will translate complex technical, economic, and environmental data into structured assessments, technical reports, and actionable insights that inform deployment and scale-up decisions.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
