Build the ESG Operating System of the future and own the technology of an ESMA-licensed rating agency. Be part of the Executive team with equity
Ecomate is a European ESG rating agency and the first ESG Operating System: a self-service SaaS and PaaS suite that lets any company integrate, manage, and report sustainability — or monitor the ESG performance of the businesses it works with. We are an ESG rating provider under Regulation (EU) 2024⁄3005, supervised by ESMA, accredited by Accredia under ISO/IEC 17029, and built in Europe for European companies across every EU framework (CSRD, ESRS, Taxonomy, SFDR, CSDDD). Our roadmap spans thirty-plus interconnected products — from a two-hour SME rating to unsolicited ESG risk scores on millions of companies, a white-label platform, an API, and an “open-ESG” scientific committee.
Initial requirements (please do not continue if you do not read yourself in these criteria)
- Located in Milan or willing to relocate (80% ON SITE, 20% REMOTE)
- Super fluent in Italian and sufficiently fluent in English
- Wanting to work for equity as much as in the fixed salary
WHAT THIS ROLE IS NOT (please do not continue if you read yourself in one of these criteria)
- If your instinct is to solve problems by hiring, this isn’t the fit. We want leverage, not headcount.
- You see yourself as a pure manager and you do not want to get your hands dirty.
- You see yourself as a 9 to 5 employee
We are small by design. We intend to stay that way while building something very large…
That makes this an unusual Senior Software Engineer / CTO role. You will hold two disciplines at once that most technology leaders only ever hold one of. On one side, a regulated, deterministic core: ratings that must be reproducible, versioned, auditable, and defensible to a supervisor. On the other, an aggressively AI-native product layer: agents, copilots, and intelligence products that reward speed and breadth. The whole architecture rests on keeping those two plan
