ABOUT

Please refer to our Notion Job Board for the full job description and priority in your application process!

CarbonFarm is creating a sustainable, profitable future for smallholder farmers.

We believe in a future where the 1 billion land stewards in this world can live profitably while taking care of the planet. That’s why we are aligning the two: profitability and climate impact.

Why CarbonFarm?

Impact-focussed company helping to fight climate change

Beautiful office spaces in (the very cool) Station F

Agile team of brilliant problem solvers

International team with international ambitions (22 people, 14 nationalities)

Deep-tech startup using modern, cloud-based technologies

A good CV is a short one (two pages good, one page better)

No need to write a cover letter, but you can highlight something from your CV or experience

You can send us a couple of examples that best showcase things you’ve done (e.g. links to code, or projects from your studies)

We are searching for a data scientist/engineer who can own technical scientific delivery and communication for customer missions end-to-end, and who can grow into a role combining operations, engineering, and product.

CarbonFarm’s work combines remote sensing data, agricultural data and machine learning. We work closely with worldwide customers to turn complex carbon projects into reliable and valuable outcomes, while feeding what we learn back into product and engineering.

As a Forward Deployed Engineer you will apply our models to each client project, adapting each time to the reality on the ground.

This role sits at the intersection of data science, engineering, and customer delivery operations. You will work closely with operations, engineering, product, and R&D to deploy and adapt CarbonFarm’s technical capabilities. That includes everything from running data pipelines and validating model outputs to shaping requirements and helping identify what should become part of the core product.

On the client-facing front, you will be working closely with our Customer Success Managers. They will manage client expectations. You will help translate client needs into technical delivery requirements and intervene in client communication when things get too technical.

This is not a consulting role. We are looking for someone who is comfortable working directly with data, code, and technical systems, and who can bridge the communication gap between a technical product and the real world in which our clients operate.
