## Job description

Venture Builder - Project Amber (Bangkok) Contract: Initial 6-month freelance contract, with the possibility of extension Rate: SGD 6,000 / month Start: Immediate / Urgent Location: Bangkok, with regular field time in the rice belt (Isan, Central Plains) [More about the concept here.](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/111GRCiHMbWQ7Mhp7clu6eVj9I5Fe0torULSBbQIbjHo/edit?slide=id.h1680521e6288a2b8_0_990#slide=id.h1680521e6288a2b8_0_990) Founders Factory builds and funds startups together with exceptional entrepreneurs and the world's leading companies. Created by IPO-exited founders, we offer founders capital, operational support from a team of hands-on experts, and unrivalled access to a coalition of industry-leading corporate partners. Since 2015, Founders Factory's 450+ portfolio companies have secured 500+ pilots and commercial contracts with our partners. Our Studio partners with entrepreneurs at day one, developing new ideas, technologies and business models into high-growth companies. In partnership with PTT, Thailand's national energy company, we are building a new portfolio of climate ventures out of Bangkok.

## About the Venture

Around 4.8 million tonnes of Thai rice straw are burned in the fields every year, driving 25–30% of dry-season PM2.5 in the Bangkok region. At the same time, global buyers are queuing for biochar carbon removal at around $160/t, and over 90% of industrial supply is already contracted. Nobody owns the route from the field to the buyer. Amber is the logistics and verification platform that closes that gap. It maps residue by satellite, routes it through contracted balers and trucks to field-edge kilns and pyrolysis plants, and captures an audit-grade chain of custody, from GPS pickup to lab result to credit, so scattered smallholder activity becomes premium, verified carbon removal. Since April 2026, farmers who burn lose access to state support, so they now need a route for their residue. Amber is backed by PTT, which brings logistics, rural reach, capital and offtake credibility that no standalone operator can rent. The plan is capex-light: broker first, toll second, own machinery last.

## About the Role

We're looking for a hands-on Venture Builder to help take Amber from validated concept to a working business in six months, alongside the founder and the Founders Factory studio team. This is a build-first, high-ownership role. You'll own the early build: from sharpening the problem and scoping the MVP to running it in the field with real farmers, balers and kilns, and iterating fast. One week you'll be in a rice field in Isan with a baling contractor; the next you'll be mapping cost per tonne by distance or prototyping the dispatch app. It is not a pure design or engineering role, not a consulting role, and not a 9–5.

## What You'll Do

- Own the Phase 1 build. Get Amber's broker model live: the plot map and supply register, dispatch for contracted balers and trucks, and a field app that captures GPS trace, load weights, moisture and photos.
- Run lean experiments in the field. Test what farmers accept per rai, the true cost per tonne by distance, and how far the collection radius can stretch, against the November–January harvest window.
- Build the ecosystem. Sign up the first farmers, baling contractors, mills and biochar producers, and find new char buyers for producers who are short on demand.
- Lay the MRV foundations. Design the data trail, from residue baseline through pickup, kiln batch and lab result, that Phase 2 credits under [Puro.earth](http://Puro.earth), Isometric or Premium T-VER will depend on.
- Shape the product and the farmer experience. Make booking, pricing and payment simple enough for a smallholder and robust enough for an auditor.
- Support the founder through the studio gates. Prepare the evidence for stage-gate and investment decisions with Founders Factory and PTT, and communicate progress and trade-offs clearly.
- Track the market. Keep a close eye on carbon credit prices, the burning ban, Thailand's Climate Change Act and competitors.

## Who You Are

- You have experience in agritech, agri supply chains, logistics, climate tech or carbon markets, ideally in Thailand or Southeast Asia.
- You are comfortable in the field: you can build trust with farmers, village heads, balers and mill operators, and enjoy being on the ground.
- You can build low-code prototypes (dispatch tools, field data capture, simple dashboards) and think about go-to-market, pricing and unit economics.
- You are at home with data: satellite or geospatial data, operational metrics, cost models. MRV or carbon credit experience is a strong plus.
- You work comfortably across product, operations, design, tech and growth.
- You speak fluent Thai and strong English.
- You are based in Bangkok or ready to be, and can travel regularly to rural provinces.
- You want to be part of a founding journey, and possibly to build your own company one day.

## What You Get

- A front-row seat building a PTT-backed climate venture from day one
- Hands-on support from the Founders Factory studio team across product, data, design, growth and fundraising
- Real ownership of a business tackling one of Thailand's most visible problems
- A global network of founders, operators and investors
