Eugene Kirpichov Biography

Eugene Kirpichov is the co-founder and executive director of Work on Climate, a nonprofit organization focused on building a regenerative, green economy by mobilizing professionals across industries to drive systemic climate action. Kirpichov established the organization after a 15-year career in software engineering, including work at Google on large-scale data processing and artificial intelligence systems. Following his transition to climate work, he connected with hundreds of professionals seeking similar career changes after his farewell note gained widespread attention. In his resignation letter, Kirpichov emphasized the scale and urgency of climate change as his motivation for shifting focus.

Work on Climate has grown into a global professional community with nearly 40,000 members. Thousands of members have secured climate jobs, launched companies, and contributed to industry transformation. The economic value generated by the talent mobilized through the community is estimated to be significantly greater than the cost of building the organization. The nonprofit works to develop the workforce needed to address climate change by fostering changes in workforce development, education, and innovation systems.

Initially created to support career transitions into climate-related roles, Work on Climate now aims to empower individuals to become climate leaders capable of transforming companies, sectors, and communities. Kirpichov has advocated for moving beyond the "get a climate job" approach, arguing that systemic change requires professionals to leverage their influence and organize as transformation leaders to build coordinated power and shift incentives toward a regenerative economy.

Kirpichov serves as chair of the PAW Climate conference series, contributing to discussions on climate solutions through predictive analytics. As a board member of Terrafuse, he helps guide the organization's strategic direction in using data for climate resilience and impact. Kirpichov has been featured by Fast Company, CNBC, The New York Times, and EDF. He is a keynote speaker on topics including climate leadership, regenerative economics, and collective action in the climate sector.
