AXA Climate & Altitude

At AXA Climate, we believe climate and nature should be treated as first-class stakeholders in business decisions - just like customers, employees or shareholders.

AXA Climate brings together 200+ climate experts across 5 continents, combining deep scientific expertise with pragmatic solutions. Our work spans Insurance, Training, Consulting and SaaS products, all driven by one ambition: turning climate and environmental challenges into concrete, actionable decisions.

Altitude is the SaaS arm of AXA Climate. We build decision-making tools that help Private Equity, Infrastructure funds and Corporate leaders understand, anticipate and act on climate and nature-related risks.

The Altitude team is 60+ people (product, design, engineering, data, account executives,…) operating with strong autonomy, while collaborating closely with consulting and scientific experts.

We already work with 100+ asset managers and 40+ major corporate players in Europe and the US. It’s now time for step 2!

Our product and design mindset

We are a product-driven team, convinced that thoughtful design can make complex topics usable, understandable and actionable. Our users deal with uncertainty, long-term risks and high-stakes decisions. Our role is to help them focus on what matters, not struggle with the tool.

We care about:

• Real user problems (not just feature delivery),

• Strong product discovery,

• Continuous improvement,

• … and collective learning.

Design is not a “final layer” at Altitude, it’s a core part of how we build products.

You’ll collaborate closely with:

• Product Managers (on vision, discovery and prioritization),

• Tech Leads & Engineers (to build and ship high-quality solutions),
