At Aigen, our mission is to accelerate the transition to regenerative agriculture—with a pesticide-free, solar powered robotics platform.
Do you have a track record of solving complex engineering challenges and delivering incredible products? Join us to make a real world impact at the confluence of cutting edge robotic technology, agriculture, AI, and climate. 52% of agricultural land is degraded by current management practices, and 60-75% of original soil carbon has been lost in lands used for agriculture (according to the IPCC).
With $7M raised to date, we are backed by a suite of investors including NEA, GFC, AgFunder, and Bessemer Ventures
Your role will be to assemble and test engineering prototypes, and set up our manufacturing facility. You will have the opportunity to work closely with our mechanical, electrical, and software teams. The ideal candidate will be a quick learner with the ability to understand complex systems and build with minimal supervision.
Aigen celebrates diversity in all its forms, and is an equal opportunity employer
