What You Will Do & Learn Master Carbon Standards: Gain hands-on fluency with leading registries and methodologies (e.g., Verra VM0042 / VMD0053, Isometric, Gold Standard) — applicability conditions, eligibility criteria, monitoring requirements, and evidence expectations.

Write Project Documentation: Draft and compile Project Design Documents (PDDs), monitoring reports, methodology deviation and clarification requests, and supporting scientific narratives that meet registry requirements.

Own Compliance Mapping: Map project evidence against methodology requirements line by line, maintain requirement-traceability records, and flag gaps between what a methodology demands and what a project holds.

Support Verification & Audit: Help prepare responses to third-party auditor (VVB) findings and corrective-action requests — drafting clear, evidence-backed clarifications and rebuttals.

Maintain the Documentation System: Build and maintain SOPs, document templates, reference libraries, and version-controlled records so project writing stays consistent and reproducible as we scale.

What We Are Looking For Educational Background Master’s (preferred) or Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Science, Soil Science, Agronomy, Climate / Sustainability Science, Environmental Policy, or a closely related field.

Core Skills

Exceptional technical and scientific writing — the ability to turn complex science and regulatory requirements into clear, precise, defensible prose.

Close,



accurate reading of long methodology and regulatory documents, with robust attention to detail.

Core Foundations

Sound understanding of carbon projects, GHG accounting concepts, or agricultural / soil science fundamentals — enough to reason about what a methodology requires and why.

Strong document management, referencing, and organisational discipline; ability to take a document from draft to final sign-off independently.

Working Toolkit

Confident use of word processors, spreadsheets, and reference/citation management. Comfort using AI/LLM-assisted tools to draft, edit, and check documentation is welcome. BONUS POINTS Prior exposure to carbon registries or methodologies (Verra, Isometric, Gold Standard, CDM) through coursework, research, or internships.

Familiarity with soil organic carbon, regenerative agriculture, or GHG-measurement concepts.

Experience writing scientific reports, literature reviews, or regulatory / compliance documents.

Interest in agricultural systems across India, Southeast Asia, or Sub-Saharan Africa. WHY JOIN VARAHA?

Direct Global Impact: Your documentation directly determines whether climate benefits for farming communities across the Global South get certified and issued.

Accelerated Career Growth: Build rare expertise in carbon-standard methodology and compliance alongside working scientists and MRV architects.
