Careers
Join the Poppy team.
The Poppy team is transforming the world's buildings. Buildings are where climate and human health align — and we're the team making that intersection better.
Our team
Mission-driven engineers
and operators.
Poppy comprises a team of passionate and award-winning entrepreneurs and engineers, united by a vision to make indoor air safer and more sustainable for everyone.
Why we exist
Where climate and human health align.
HVAC is one of the biggest drivers of energy use and emissions, and ventilation decisions can mean the difference between wasted energy and real carbon reduction. At the same time, we spend most of our lives indoors — where ventilation and filtration directly shape comfort, wellbeing, and exposure to airborne risk.
Our mission is to help cut building emissions without asking people to accept higher health risk as the "price" of efficiency. We're transforming ventilation from a costly black box into a controllable lever for operating cost, carbon, and occupant wellbeing.
What we've built
- ✓Pioneered real-time air tracing — measuring how air behaves in real buildings, not how drawings say it should
- ✓50M+ sq ft measured across North America, Europe and the Middle East
- ✓#5 Most Innovative Company — Fast Company
- ✓18+ patents covering measurement, verification, and optimization
- ✓ARPA-H BREATHE SCALE awardee — schools and public health
- ✓A tight-knit, remote-first team of professional engineers and operators
How we work
Sharp, humble, and allergic
to hand-wavy claims.
Evidence over assumptions
We measure before we conclude. Our team is allergic to hand-wavy claims — in buildings and in our own work.
Real-world impact
We work on hard physical problems. Our results appear on utility bills, not just dashboards.
Tight-knit and nimble
Small team, high ownership. We move fast and sweat the details.
Support each other
Sharp, humble people who help each other do their best work.
