🌎 About Pioneer

Pioneer's mission is to coordinate funding for rapid decarbonization. We are taking the pain out of the government application process for climate tech companies by using a combination of LLMs and in-house consultants to reduce the effort required to identify, apply, and comply with government awards. We have a proven business model and rapidly growing revenue.

👩‍💻 Our Culture

We are an early-stage, remote-first startup passionate about climate impact and creating a supportive growth environment based on the fundamentals of Radical Candor. Our core values are kindness, feedback, intentionality, ownership, and impact. We implement these in various creative ways, including laps instead of sprints, feedback instead of 1:1, and decision journals! Our newest team member said,“Every interaction is 'kind', coming from a place of respecting each other.” You can learn more about our team and culture on our careers page: usepioneer.com/careers
