About Deep Sky
Deep Sky is on a mission to accelerate the world's transition to carbon removal by developing and operating direct air capture (DAC) facilities. Our state-of-the-art plant in Innisfail will play a crucial role in capturing CO₂ directly from the atmosphere, helping combat climate change on a global scale. Join us in this groundbreaking journey to achieve net-zero.
Job Overview
We're looking for a Product Manager in our Capture Engineering team with a deep understanding of both hardware and software systems to lead the development of integrated software products. These tools will span across our facility operations, technology partners, carbon certification workflows, prototype testbeds, and simulation environments. You will work closely with cross-functional engineering teams to build software that operates and monitors real-time hardware systems, collects and curates facility data, powers automation and control across facility and R&D operations, supports accurate, auditable carbon certification, and bridges R&D, simulations, and pilot-scale learnings with production systems. This is a foundational role where you'll have significant ownership and impact on how our software stack evolves alongside our physical technologies. If you have a passion for building robust systems, solving complex engineering challenges, and not afraid to fail, we’d love to hear from you.
Key Responsibilities
- Define and drive the roadmap for software systems that support real-time operations, automation, and carbon certification generated by our facilities.
- Collaborate with our process, hardware, and software engineering teams as well as our operations teams to deeply understand system behaviors and requirements.
- Translate high-level company objectives into clear software product specifications and user stories.
- Own the full lifecycle of software products from ideation and requirements gathering to launch and iteration.
- Develop tools that ingest, process, and visualize data from sensors, control systems, simulations, hardware-in-the-loop, and prototype systems.
- Coordinate with certification and compliance teams to ensure software supports traceable and verifiable carbon accounting.
- Integrate R&D and operational datasets into digital twin models to inform next-gen facility design and technology optimization.
Basic Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in related STEM discipline
- 5+ years of product management experience in climate tech, industrial tech, or in deep tech domains like aerospace, robotics, autonomous systems.
- Strong technical background engineering degree or hands-on experience working with hardware + software systems.
Preferred Skills and Experience
- Ability to work in a fast paced, autonomously driven, and demanding atmosphere.
- Ability to assess risk and make design and development decisions without all available data.
- Proven track record of building products that interface with physical systems (IoT, robotics, automation, or similar).
- Experience with industrial data acquisition systems, SCADA, or control software is a plus.
- Familiarity with software development processes, data pipelines, and cloud-based infrastructure.
Additional Requirements
- Willing to work extended hours and weekends as necessary
- Some travel required

What you need to know about the Calgary Tech Scene
Employees can spend up to one-third of their life at work, so choosing the right company is crucial, not just for the job itself but for the company culture as well. While startups often offer dynamic culture and growth opportunities, large corporations provide benefits like career development and networking, especially appealing to recent graduates. Fortunately, Calgary stands out as a hub for both, recognized as one of Startup Genome's Top 100 Emerging Ecosystems, while also playing host to a number of multinational enterprises. In Calgary, job seekers can find a wide range of opportunities.
