Remora is seeking an Operations Manager to lead the day-to-day operations of our deployed carbon capture systems. This is a hands-on role responsible for ensuring our systems operate safely, reliably, and efficiently while building the processes, procedures, and operating discipline needed to support a rapidly growing fleet. You’ll work closely with Engineering, Commissioning, Field Service, and Supply Chain to resolve issues, improve system performance, and turn early deployments into a scalable operating model.

We’re building modular carbon capture systems, turning exhaust into beverage-grade CO₂ sold to breweries and greenhouses. We deploy in regions facing severe CO₂ shortages, where prices are highest, allowing us to generate high margins without relying on tax credits or carbon credits.

We’ve raised over $115 million in funding from top investors including Lowercarbon Capital, Union Square Ventures, First Round Capital, Y Combinator, and Valor Equity Partners.

Responsibilities

  • Own the day-to-day operation and performance of deployed carbon capture systems, ensuring safe, reliable, and efficient operation.
  • Develop and implement standard operating procedures, maintenance programs, operating standards, and escalation processes for field operations.
  • Monitor fleet performance, system uptime, reliability, maintenance needs, and key operational KPIs.
  • Coordinate preventive and corrective maintenance activities with Field Service, Engineering, vendors, and contractors.
  • Lead troubleshooting and root-cause resolution of operational issues, ensuring problems are documented, communicated, and permanently addressed.
  • Partner with Commissioning and Engineering to transition newly deployed systems from startup and commissioning into steady-state operations.
  • Build operational processes that can scale from the first commercial systems to a multi-site fleet.
  • Manage spare parts, consumables, service requirements, and other resources necessary to maintain system availability.
  • Establish preventative and predictive maintenance strategies that improve reliability and reduce unplanned downtime.
  • Support the hiring, training, and development of operators, technicians, and other field operations personnel as the fleet grows.
  • Maintain strong safety standards and ensure field operations comply with company procedures and applicable regulatory requirements.
  • Partner cross-functionally with Engineering to provide structured feedback from the field and drive improvements in system design, reliability, maintainability, and serviceability.
  • Manage relationships with site partners, contractors, service providers, and other external stakeholders supporting operations.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of experience in operations, field operations, manufacturing, industrial equipment, energy, chemical processing, power generation, or related environment.
  • Experience operating or supporting complex industrial equipment or process systems in the field.
  • Demonstrated experience building and improving operational processes, SOPs, maintenance programs, and performance metrics.
  • Experience managing technicians, contractors, or other frontline teams.
  • Strong understanding of equipment reliability, preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, and root-cause analysis.
  • Experience working closely with engineering and technical teams to resolve equipment and operational issues.
  • Experience with power generation, generators, industrial gas systems, rotating

Here’s what we value

  • Mission First: We are laser-focused on our mission. We have chosen to take on the defining challenge of our time, and we don’t shy away from the hard decisions required to put our mission first, no matter how tough. The world needs our technology and it won’t happen any time soon if we don’t make it happen. We are a low-ego team, and we prioritize the mission over our self-interest. We think strategically with an eye to the long term, and we clearly separate what must be done well now, and what can be improved later, despite ambiguity.
  • Burning Urgency: Our hard-core intensity and work ethic match the crisis we’re in. We have a strong bias toward action, and we execute with focus and speed. In the absence of guidance, we take charge, lead our teammates, and accomplish our goals. We aren’t afraid to change course when something isn’t working, and we find solutions even when it seems like there are none. We are cool under pressure, and our quiet determination and drive are unwavering. We relentlessly push ourselves and each other to improve. We don’t accept adequate performance. Excellence is the expectation. Many would say our standards are unreasonably high, and many would say our goals are unreasonably bold, but we are hungry to be exceptional. We will never give up, no matter what. If we get knocked down, we get back up, every time. We will not fail.
