About the company:

At Aigen our mission is to accelerate regenerative agriculture at a planetary scale—with a pesticide-free, solar powered robotics platform.

At Aigen, our mission is to accelerate the transition to regenerative agriculture—with a pesticide-free, solar powered robotics platform.

52% of agricultural land is degraded by current management practices, and toxic chemical pesticides are sprayed and then consumed in the food we eat. Join us to make a real world impact at the confluence of cutting edge robotic technology, agriculture, AI, and climate! With $19M raised to date, we are backed by a suite of investors including NEA, GFC, AgFunder, Regen.vc, and Bessemer Ventures.

The Role: Are you passionate about software development and eager to contribute in a way that will shape systems from early stages? Join our team and be a driving force in advancing the heart of our robot software stack. We are on a mission to address challenging real-world problems, and we need creative and dedicated developers like you to help us build our robotics platform.

Collaborate with cross-functional teams to design, develop, and maintain the robot software framework. Debug and troubleshoot software and hardware issues, working hand-in-hand with the testing and hardware teams to ensure seamless software integration.

The responsibilities will be wide and varied. The ideal candidate will be a quick learner with the ability to understand complex systems, and have a creative approach to problem solving.

Aigen celebrates diversity in all its forms, and is an equal opportunity employer
