Senior Product Manager - Carbon Trading & Marketplace Infrastructure

Based in Berlin or Freiburg, open to other European locations and remote work.

About Carbonfuture 

Carbonfuture is the trust infrastructure for durable carbon removal. We provide the tools and services that help suppliers bring projects to market and enable buyers to invest in carbon removal with confidence. Our infrastructure ensures the integrity of carbon removal and enables it to scale.


Your Role and Responsibilities 

We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager with a strong B2B background to drive the development of our two-sided platform, from initial concept to product delivery and iteration. You’ll take ownership of critical product areas, collaborating with engineering, design, and stakeholders to shape the roadmap and deliver scalable solutions that power the future of carbon removal. 

You’ll thrive in this role if you're a strategic systems thinker who can operate in complexity, balance the needs of multiple users, and is comfortable leading product work across both technical and business domains. This role comes with significant autonomy and strategic influence. 

You will work directly with our Head of Product, engineering, design, and our Carbon Markets team and help define how carbon removal is transacted, structured, and experienced by buyers in a market that is still being built. 

Key Responsibilities 

You will take ownership of the buyer and trading side of our two-sided platform, shaping the strategy, user experience, and transaction logic that enables carbon removal to function as a scalable asset class. 

  • Own product development end-to-end, from discovery to delivery and iteration 
  • Define and execute product strategy and roadmap aligned with business goals 
  • Drive features from 0 to 1 – from user insights to validated launches 
  • Identify real user problems through direct customer interaction and market research 
  • Shape front-end use cases and transaction flows for carbon credit buyers 
  • Prioritize backlogs, manage trade-offs, and ensure seamless delivery 
  • Collaborate with engineering, design, science, and operations teams 
  • Align stakeholders across both key user groups (e.g., carbon suppliers and buyers), with a focus on the buyer side of the platform
  • Champion user experience, platform trust, and business scalability 
  • Define KPIs and measurable outcomes that support both trust and scalability 
  • Raise the product bar by mentoring others through example and product craft 

What We’re Looking For 

Experience

  • 5–8+ years in B2B product management 
  • Proven experience in building and shipping 0–1 products 
  • Background working with complex technical systems 
  • Experience in platform, marketplace, trading, or financial environments strongly preferred 
  • Exposure to regulated markets or financial products is a plus 
  • Experience working directly with enterprise users and understanding B2B sales cycles 

Skills

  • Strategic systems thinker with strong product judgment  
  • Proven ability to operate in ambiguity, create structure, and make independent trade-offs 
  • Strong analytical skills; data-driven and KPI-focused 
  • Platform thinking: balancing multi-sided user needs, standardization vs. customization 
  • Ability to navigate regulatory, business, and technical constraints 
  • Excellent communicator across executives, engineers, and customers 
  • Experience aligning cross-functional teams in complex environments 
  • Interest or experience in AI 

What We Offer 

  • A ground-breaking business with an early foothold in the carbon removal industry and the ability to have a real impact on climate change  
  • A rapidly growing international team with a shared mission to address climate change  
  • Flexible working hours  
  • Competitive salary  
  • 30 days paid leave + bank holidays  
  • Sports and health benefits  
  • Purpose-driven, ambitious colleagues and a friendly, open and inclusive environment
