Data scientist for climate tech vertical farm
Help solving one of humanity's greatest challenges: High quality food for a rapidly growing urbanized population, produced sustainably.
We are looking for an excellent data scientist to help turn the large amounts of sensor data from our vertical farms into better food production and reduced CO2 emission. Already, our farms are automatic controlled by our cloud software and large amounts of historic and realtime data from millions of plants grown is readily available, and in use for optimization and monitoring purposes. You role will be to work with our software people to introduce new improved algorithms with a particular focus on machine learning. This is a great opportunity to take your already excellent data science and programming skills to new heights, and to work with a strong team of plant experts, engineers and business people on something that makes a real difference. We are offering a part-time position with a high degree of autonomy. More than a job, you see this as an opportunity to go beyond and challenge yourself to do something extraordinary in you field.
Main responsibilities:
- Define, build and test algorithms for plant growth optimization and monitoring using farm sensor data.
- Implement and deploy algorithms in live farms.
You:
- Excellent data science knowledge and hands-on experience, particularly within ML.
- Excellent programming skills (we are language agnostic).
- Execution oriented, data driven and entrepreneurial.
- Curious, direct, proactive and open minded. You take ownership and ensures a job well done.
- Structured with an eye for detail.

We offer:
- The opportunity to help solve one of the main challenges humanity faces through business and technology.
- A high degree of influence in an open inclusive culture of dedicated people.
- A great place to learn - we combine cutting edge plant science, artificial intelligence, big data, hardware, software, mechanics, chemistry and cloud computing with new business models and supply chain processes.
- A cross-disciplinary team.
- Flexible workplace and hours.
- Remote work possible.
- Greens to take home.
