OUR COMPANY:

Agilyx, a rapidly growing environmental technology and development company, extracts value from difficult-to-recycle mixed waste plastic streams. With very dedicated employees and strong can-do culture, Agilyx has developed the first system capable of recycling polystyrene (rigid containers, foam cups, packaging materials, and Styrofoam) into styrene oil, which is then used to remake polystyrene (“PS”). Additionally, we have commercialized this technology converting mixed plastics to high quality VGO crude. With this technology, Agilyx is working with waste service providers, municipalities, refiners, and private and public enterprises to develop closed loop, “circularity” solution for mixed waste plastics. With offices in Tigard, OR (Portland) and Portsmouth, NH, we are looking for our next professional Senior Accountant that could be located at either location in a hybrid role.
