Agriculture & Biofuels Analyst

Company Description

Are you passionate about building a cleaner, more sustainable future? So are we.

Welcome to Ohayo Green Energy. Our mission is to accelerate the transition to renewable energy by developing, implementing, and managing innovative green energy solutions globally, with a focus on the APAC region. We are a team of dedicated engineers, researchers, visionaries, and sustainability professionals committed to combating climate change one project at a time. If you're looking for more than just a job—if you're looking for a purpose—and want to gain valuable experience working for a cause that truly matters, we invite you to join us in greeting a brighter, greener tomorrow.

The Role

We are seeking an Agricultural Specialist to conduct research for feedstock resource mapping and cultivation analysis. This full-time contract role will contribute to the quantitative foundation of India’s Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) supply potential for the next decade.

The Opportunity

This isn't a typical role where you'll be on the sidelines. You will be a creative force at the heart of our mission, translating complex sustainability concepts into impactful strategies. This role is perfect for a recent graduate with 1-2 years of experience who is passionate about the environment and has a natural talent for research and communication. You will work directly with our core team to conduct on-ground research for the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) ecosystem in India and work on reports that help advance the cause of decarbonisation through SAF.

What You'll Do:

• Technical Analysis: Conduct assessments of annual availability and yield potential for carbohydrate-rich (sugars/grains) and lipid-based feedstocks.
• Carbon Modelling: Research "low-carbon" sustainable agricultural practices (e.g., fertiliser substitution, no-till farming) to calculate GHG reductions for LCA System Boundaries.
• Economic Modelling: Evaluate farm-level economics and byproduct pricing
• Project Integration: Collaborate with the consulting team to provide feedstock inputs for supply-demand projection models.
• Reporting: Contribute technical sections to interim and final project reports, focusing on agricultural sustainability criteria.
• Teamwork: Participate in weekly project alignment meetings and ensure high data integrity for all farm-level inputs.

Who We're Looking For:

• A recent graduate in Agricultural Sciences or Agronomics preferred.
• A recent graduate with a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Sustainability, Environmental Science, Renewable Energy, Public Policy, Engineering or a related field may also apply.
• 1-2 years of field or research and project-based experience in sugarcane, sweet sorghum, or oilseeds ecosystem in India.
• Previous experience in consulting or renewable energy projects is preferred. Freshers with relevant internship experience may also apply.

• Exceptional proficiency in Microsoft Excel is mandatory.

  Experience with financial modelling preferred.
• A strong, demonstrable passion for climate action, renewable energy, and sustainability.
• A creative thinker with a keen eye for data and detail.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work independently in a remote setting.
• Ideally based in Delhi, India, but we will accept Pan-India applications if you feel you can work fully remote with no need for real-time guidance.

What We Offer:

• A competitive monthly salary.
• The flexibility of a fully remote work environment.
• Direct mentorship and hands-on experience in the green energy sector.
• A unique opportunity to build a professional portfolio with projects that make a real-world impact.
