[GSBN] Fwd: Whose dream job is to lead a movement in low-carbon building materials for rural Africa?

[Bruce EBNet]

Earth builders and earth engineers everywhere —

Please read and forward to anyone possibly interested/qualified.  Gaya is a buddy, a wonderful new shooting star in the world of low-carbon natural building.  Super smart, super fun, you wouldn’t regret taking a chance to work with her in saving lives and lowering emissions by advancing the science of earthen floors.

Thank you!

> If you do me one favor this decade, it is forwarding this email to an engineer or material scientist who loves natural building and earth construction. 
> 
> EarthEnable is hiring a Technical Director of Sustainable Building and Innovation!

> EarthEnable <http://www.earthenable.org/> has all the pieces in place to revolutionize housing for millions of people, except for a technical leader who will take low-carbon construction to the next level.  We have the business model, the execution team of 600 passionate people, the brand, the innovation team, and the vision to introduce new housing products and resilient building techniques. But to unlock all of this, need an experienced materials scientist or structural engineer to be the fifth member of our Senior Leadership Team and to lead our 5 person innovation team.  
> 
> Rural housing in Africa desperately needs innovation. Rwanda's devastating rains this year are a stark reminder that innovations in climate resilient housing for the extreme poor couldn't be more urgent. EarthEnable has spent the past 5 years building over 5,000 earthen floors for rural customers in Rwanda and Uganda, and we are ready to do more. 
> 
> This person is someone who loves understanding the issues people have with their homes, instantly prototyping solutions, brainstorming breakthrough innovations in natural building with others, coaching a team of young but brilliant engineers and scientists, developing research protocols to test new ideas, and then working with a team of 600 wildly passionate people to scale the ones with the biggest impact. You should have a breadth of technical knowledge, a deep love for developing a team, and an intense urgency to get things done.
