Founding Engineer
ABOUT THE ROLE
Join an early-stage agricultural technology team building AI tools to make sense of crop, soil, weather, and farm operations data. As one of the first engineers, you will take on open-ended technical challenges and help shape the product and engineering culture.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Build data pipelines that bring together farm data from sensors, satellite and drone imagery, weather sources, and agronomic records.
- Train, evaluate, and deploy machine learning models and the infrastructure that supports them.
- Put product in front of growers, observe how they use it, and rapidly iterate based on feedback.
- Help select the technical stack, establish engineering practices, and grow the team.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Roughly 0 to 4 years of professional experience, or equivalent evidence of strong building ability.
- Strong coding skills in Python and/or TypeScript, with the flexibility to work across the stack.
- A track record of shipping projects end to end, such as personal projects, research, open source work, or startup products.
- Persistence in tackling difficult technical or personal challenges.
- Curiosity about AI and real-world systems; prior agriculture experience is not required.
- Experience with machine learning, computer vision, time-series data, or geospatial tools is a plus.
- Background in agriculture, climate, food, hard tech, or an early-stage startup is a plus.
