Senior Product Manager

Arable is an agritech company that provides crop intelligence and water stewardship solutions to growers, agricultural enterprises, and sustainability-focused organizations. The company develops in-field sensing hardware, agronomic modeling software, and intuitive mobile and web applications that enable farmers to monitor real-time rainfall, crop water use, and irrigation data, allowing them to irrigate based on actual crop need rather than guesswork. Arable's technology stack includes the Mark 3 sensor device, soil moisture probes, and a developer API, all designed to be easy to install and use at scale across diverse agricultural environments. Arable's mission centers on advancing water security and helping enterprises meet ambitious sustainability goals by connecting them directly with farmers through simple, scalable tools. The company works with major partners including Google and Amazon to promote water conservation in agriculture, and its solutions are deployed in regions such as the Mississippi Delta and areas reliant on critical aquifers like the Kankakee. Arable quantifies water savings at the watershed level, providing enterprises with the reporting and data needed to demonstrate measurable environmental impact. What distinguishes Arable is its dual focus on farmer productivity and enterprise-level water stewardship, bridging the gap between on-farm decision-making and corporate sustainability commitments. The company's award-winning technology has been recognized by organizations ranging from the World Food Programme to leading agribusiness players such as Netafim and Nuveen Natural Capital, underscoring its relevance across both humanitarian and commercial agricultural contexts.
