We, at Takachar, are bringing about radical sustainability in the way the world produces fuels, fertilizers and specialty chemicals through new age, small scale and decentralized biomass conversion technology.
Takachar’s target market is small-scale agriculture, where today post-harvest biomass is often simply burned in the open-air, creating air pollution while netting no value for farmers. Its process can be a profitable way to make economic use of this biomass, while reducing air pollution.
We have a position open in our team for a paid internship opportunity starting June 2020 for 3 months. The role would be focused on market analysis and getting feedback from customers through prototyping. Please find attached the job description for your reference. Anyone interested can reach out to vidyut@takachar.com.

About Takachar
Takachar is working towards bringing radical sustainability in the way the world produces fuels, fertilizers and speciality chemicals like Activated Carbon.
Takachar is an MIT spin-off that is focused on dramatically increasing the amount of waste biomass economically transformed into marketable products around the world. Takachar aims to do this by developing small-scale, low-cost, portable equipment that turn small pockets of biomass in remote areas into commercially viable products, such as solid fuel, fertilizer, or other speciality chemicals. Takachar’s target market is small-scale agriculture, where today post-harvest biomass is often simply burned in the open-air, creating air pollution while netting no value. Its process can be a profitable way to make economic use of this biomass, providing more value to farmers while reducing air pollution.

- Who has the ability to work in uncertain situations, as they often are with start-ups.
- Who has a strong motivation to flight climate change and bring about social change among underserved communities.
