Do you want to join a fast-growing climate tech startup with real impact?
About Coulomb
At Coulomb AI, we envision a future powered by the seamless integration of AI and Battery Technologies, creating a powerful synergy to combat climate change. We build category-leading software that can significantly improve battery lifespan and performance by employing advanced predictive analytics, real-time monitoring, and adaptive battery management algorithms.
Coulomb is headquartered in San Francisco with its development and research center in Bangalore. Founders Khushboo Shrivastava and Santanu Mondal are alumni of IIT Bombay and have first-hand experience working on first-generation Electric Vehicles at General Motors. We are backed by some of the best climate tech investors in the world, including Y Combinator, Harvard Management Seed Capital, CSVE Ventures, and prominent Silicon Valley-based Angels.
We already have a global presence with customers in 5 countries across UK, US, APAC and India
Yet, we’re still at the start of our journey, and we want exceptional people to join us!
