What is the difference between Professional Carbon Capture Engineering vs Environmental Engineer?

AspectProfessional Carbon Capture EngineeringEnvironmental Engineer
Required CredentialsBachelor's or higher in engineering, certifications in carbon capture technologiesBachelor's or higher in environmental engineering or related field, often with environmental certifications
Work EnvironmentIndustrial facilities, research labs, energy companiesGovernment agencies, consulting firms, environmental organizations
Industry UsageEnergy, oil & gas, manufacturing sectors focusing on emission reductionEnvironmental protection, sustainability projects, regulatory compliance

Professional Carbon Capture Engineers focus on designing and implementing technologies to capture carbon emissions, primarily in industrial settings. Environmental Engineers work on broader environmental issues, including pollution control and sustainability. While both roles require engineering backgrounds and environmental knowledge, their specific focus areas and work environments differ.

Job description

Build the Future of Carbon Conversion & Renewable Energy
Location: Franklin, TN (On-Site)
Type: Full-Time
Seniority: Director / Leadership
Join Enexor BioEnergy
Enexor is a venture-backed, early-stage climate tech company just outside of Nashville, TN, developing distributed systems that turn organic and plastic waste into clean energy and high-purity CO₂. We are reimagining how the world addresses emissions, waste, and energy access-one modular system at a time.
We're not just solving problems. We're redefining what's possible at the intersection of engineering, energy, and sustainability.
Why This Role Matters
We're seeking a Director of Engineering to lead and scale our multidisciplinary engineering team as we develop, build, and deploy the next generation of our waste-to-energy and carbon capture systems. You'll be both strategist and builder-setting the engineering vision, managing execution, and rolling up your sleeves to help solve complex hardware challenges.
This is a critical leadership role reporting directly to the CEO. You will own the engineering organization while collaborating across product development, fabrication, and field deployment to take ideas from whiteboard to world-changing systems.
What You'll Do
  • Lead and grow a world-class mechanical, electrical, and controls engineering team.
  • Drive end-to-end product development-from concept to CAD, DFM, fabrication, commissioning, and continuous improvement.
  • Build scalable engineering processes that support rapid prototyping and high-reliability deployment.
  • Own technical architecture decisions and cross-functional integration across subsystems (combustion, thermal, gas separation, pressure, controls).
  • Guide engineering trade-offs with strong first-principles thinking and cost-performance analysis.
  • Partner with the CEO and executive team on strategic initiatives, resource planning, and technical hiring.
  • Instill a culture of ownership, urgency, and innovation in everything you build.

Requirements
What We're Looking For
  • B.S. or M.S. in Mechanical Engineering or related field; deep hardware/system experience required.
  • 10+ years of engineering experience, including 5+ in technical leadership or management roles.
  • Proven success developing complex mechanical or thermal systems-ideally in energy, emissions, or industrial environments.
  • Hands-on experience with pressure vessels, piping, structural systems, heat transfer, or adsorption tech is a major plus.
  • Strong grasp of CAD (Inventor), simulation (FEA/CFD and other Process Modeling), and manufacturing workflows.
  • Comfortable wearing multiple hats: player-coach, mentor, problem-solver, and executor.
  • Bonus: Familiarity with modular product design, automation, or containerized systems.

Benefits
Why You'll Love It Here
  • Mission with urgency: You'll help solve real-world energy and emissions problems with technology that scales.
  • No red tape: Fast decisions, flat org, and deep ownership.
  • Equity upside: This is an early-stage leadership opportunity with real skin in the game.
  • True engineering culture: We build, we test, we fix, we deploy.

Compensation & Benefits
  • Competitive salary + equity stake in a fast-growing climate tech company.
  • 401(k) plan and health insurance stipend (QSEHRA).
  • Paid vacation and holidays.
