About the Mission
TerraByte Green is a non-profit startup based in North Carolina, focused on the intersection of digital equity and environmental sustainability. We manage e-waste responsibly by refurbishing technology to bridge the digital divide. While our Board of Directors is established, we are still in the pre-launch phase. We are seeking a North Carolina-based partner with a Co-Founder mindset to help the organization transition from the planning phase to active community impact.
The Big Picture
We have laid the foundational groundwork and completed our initial Board meetings, but we are now looking for a dedicated partner to help build our infrastructure from the ground up. This is a hybrid role that requires residency in North Carolina to assist with local operations and community partnerships. The person in this role will be responsible for bringing our vision to life as a functioning organization, with a specific focus on our inaugural internship program.

Future Compensation
TerraByte Green is currently in its startup phase and does not yet generate revenue to cover salaries. This is a volunteer role with the intent of transitioning into a paid executive position. As we achieve our revenue milestones through services and funding, our priority is to compensate the leadership team for the expertise and time they have invested during this build phase.
