About Native Since 2000, Native has worked with clients to develop authentic solutions to their sustainability challenges and to implement both community- and landscape-scale projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, strengthen clients’ businesses, and contribute to progress on climate change around the world.

We construct unique project portfolios to meet climate goals, drive business value, and deliver tangible benefits to stakeholder communities – from customers and suppliers to employees and shareholders. Our methods enable companies to put their sustainability strategies into practice by investing in new climate action projects in and around their value chain.

Native’s team of strategists, project developers, environmental scientists, and legal counsel are devoted to strengthening the people, companies, and places at the heart of these initiatives, and we are seeking a Field Operations Technician to join our team.

You will work closely with Native’s Project team to facilitate implementation plans and on-going operations for on-farm projects, as well as the collection of project data management.

While your day-to-day workload will vary, your primary responsibilities involve supporting the operations of at least one small scale digester located on a dairy farm, one biochar pyrolysis unit located on a dairy farm, and other R&D climate technology projects sites in Vermont. Depending on the time of year and project stage, this includes routine maintenance, equipment troubleshooting and repairs, data collection, engaging with project hosts and farmers, engaging with local governmental officials and grant making entities, assisting with the preparation of validation and verification documents, and managing data for grant reporting. This role is considered full time at 30 hours per week, and reports to the VP, Project Development and Origination.

This position requires heavy lifting (<50 lbs) and/or climbing a ladder and/or stairs; a valid driver’s license; and the ability to recognize red and green colors, including the red and green status indicators on PLC and wire colors.

Operational experience may be supplemented with military experience or training in a related field.
