Who You Are:

You're a pragmatic engineer who takes ownership end-to-end—from design and implementation through deployment, monitoring, and ongoing operations. You thrive in a collaborative environment, can work autonomously, and value sharing expertise and learning from others. You're comfortable bridging software engineering and computational science—optimizing algorithms, designing scalable APIs, and delivering reliable systems that enable stakeholders to iterate and innovate with confidence.

What You'll Do:

This role is central to our AI-enablement strategy: you'll help build and deploy platforms that let teams seamlessly integrate new algorithms, digital twins, and AI-powered tools into breeding pipelines and workflows—ensuring they are versioned, reproducible, monitored, and ready for real-world use.

Design and maintain back-end services and APIs that expose data and algorithms to internal users and downstream systems, with a focus on production readiness for deployment

Collaborate closely with scientists, data engineers, and other stakeholders to translate domain problems into robust software solutions—and carry them through deployment into breeding workflows

Build and optimize large-scale batch compute jobs for numerically intensive scientific workloads

Help advance engineering practices as the team scales its AI capabilities

What Skills You Need:

Bachelor’s degree in computer science, software engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience), with 10+ years of relevant experience

Strong Python skills

Strong communication skills — able to work effectively with both engineers and non-technical stakeholders

Experience working with Linux and Docker

Working knowledge of AWS (deploying and operating cloud services, storage, and compute)

Experience with large-scale batch computing

Experience with scientific libraries and numerically heavy code

At least some experience with compiled languages such as C++ or Rust

Experience writing and integrating web APIs

What Makes You Stand Out:

Experience with Terraform

Familiarity with LLM integration, RAG pipelines, or building AI-assisted tools

Background in scientific computing, genetics, agriculture or related domains
