Join Enexor BioEnergy
Enexor is a venture-backed climate tech company outside Nashville, building modular systems that convert waste into clean energy and capture CO₂ at the source. We move fast, build real hardware, and take pride in solving tough engineering problems that matter.
Why This Role Matters
We’re launching multiple new small-scale, modular products and need a product development leader to drive that forward. You’ll own the full product lifecycle across new platforms: from early prototypes to final builds. This role sits at the intersection of strategy, engineering, and execution, and is key to how we scale and ship.

- Drive programs from concept through design, prototyping, testing, and field deployment
- Work hands-on with engineering and manufacturing to ensure real-world reliability and field-readiness
- Own program planning, timelines, and risk management across multiple concurrent product tracks
- Balance performance, cost, and manufacturability in all decisions
- Collaborate directly with the CEO and technical leadership on roadmap and priorities
- Build scalable systems and documentation to support ongoing development and production
Requirements
What We’re Looking For
- B.S. or M.S. in Mechanical, Systems, or related Engineering field
- 8+ years in hardware product development, with experience launching complex electromechanical systems
- Proven ability to lead multi-disciplinary teams and manage technical programs end-to-end
- Strong mechanical and/or system integration intuition—comfortable in CAD, shop, and field
- Experience with modular or containerized system design
- Deep ownership mindset and bias for action
Bonus Points For:
- Background in energy systems, carbon capture, or gas treatment
- Experience working in or alongside startups or fast-moving hardware teams
