In this role, you will serve as the primary technical and strategic partner for our clients, guiding them from onboarding and implementation to achieving their decarbonization goals with our AI-powered platform. You will work alongside an innovative, mission-driven team to help shape the future of the climate tech industry.

At Pantas, we're pioneering a new approach to how businesses measure, manage, and report their carbon emissions. Home to the first PCAF-accredited platform in Asia, we are setting the standard in carbon accounting and providing organizations with the tools they need to decarbonize effectively.

Why Pantas?

Pantas is a fast-growing tech startup founded by three Malaysians with over 30 years of combined experience in finance, hedge funds, investment banking, management consulting, software engineering, and startups. Our leadership team has a proven track record, including the successful sale of a data analytics company to Bain & Company.

Our investors include top-tier VCs from Silicon Valley, private equity and hedge fund investors from the US, Europe, Hong Kong, Singapore, and one of Southeast Asia's largest conglomerates.

At Pantas, we operate with a startup mentality—offering team members a sense of ownership and a flat management structure that fosters growth, innovation, and collaboration.

Serve as the primary point of contact and trusted advisor for a dedicated portfolio of clients, building strong, long-term relationships to ensure they achieve their sustainability goals using Pantas.
- Sustainability Analysis & Strategic Advisory:

Analyze client carbon emission data to generate insightful reports, identify key reduction opportunities, and provide strategic advice on sustainability best practices and compliance.
- Proactive Client Engagement:

Proactively monitor client health and platform usage, developing strategies to drive deeper adoption, ensure satisfaction, and secure renewals.
- AI-Enhanced Product Development:

Act as the voice of the customer by gathering feedback to propose, test, and assist in the implementation of new AI-driven features that automate client tasks and enhance decision-making.
- Training & Empowerment:

Develop and deliver training sessions, workshops, and support materials to empower clients, helping them become expert users of the Pantas platform.

- Adaptability

: Comfort with working in a fast-paced environment and the ability to adjust to shifting priorities.
- Technical Aptitude & Analytical Mindset:

A strong ability to understand and implement software solutions. Experience analyzing large datasets to derive actionable insights, preferably using both standard tools and learning new AI-driven platforms.
- Client-Facing & Communication Skills:

Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with an ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical users and build strong advisory relationships.
- Passion for Problem-Solving:

An eagerness to troubleshoot client challenges, gather product feedback, and work with engineering teams to test and implement new AI-driven features.
- Proactive and Independent

: Strong ability to take initiative, manage multiple client implementations simultaneously, and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment

Additional Points We Would Love to See:

  • Previous experience, especially in business development, sustainability, or the financial sector.
  • Experience in banking, investment, or financial services is highly valued and will strengthen your ability to support our clients and team goals.
  • Additional courses or certifications in business, sustainability, or related fields.
  • Leadership experience, such as in co-curricular activities or volunteer roles.
  • Any prior knowledge or interest in carbon emissions or the climate tech industry.

What's In It for You?

  • Drive Impact with Applied AI:

Go beyond just using dashboards. You will actively harness our proprietary AI models to analyze client data, providing the deep, predictive insights that allow them to take meaningful climate action.
- Drive Impact with AI-Powered Insights:

Go beyond using tools and become instrumental in creating them. You will gain practical experience in building AI-powered solutions from the ground up, leaving your mark by contributing directly to our proprietary analytical models.
- Become an Applied AI Innovator:

Don't just use AI, help build it. Directly influence our AI roadmap by translating client challenges into new models and features, gaining invaluable hands-on experience in applied artificial intelligence.
- Future-Proof Your Career:

Position yourself at the critical intersection of AI, technology, and sustainability. Gain expertise in three of the most important and fastest-growing global sectors, making you a highly valuable leader in the new economy.
