About the Job
Do you program web applications? Do you want to work from the comfort of your home? Do you prefer prototyping versus being handed a huge technical document? Do you want your opinion to matter?
We are a fast-growing tech company with decades of domain experience in agriculture and farm management. We're a small team of highly driven, hard-working folks who love the work we do and are excited about growing our company together.
We are looking for a jack-of-all-trades to work with us as we continue to evolve our enterprise SaaS stack in the agriculture sector. The right candidate will need to do everything from server maintenance to backend development to frontend. You will be working under the CTO, giving advice and using your expertise to build simple but powerful tools for our customers.
Our software includes a frontend management and reporting interface, a dashboard system with even more reporting and graphing, an API, and a mobile app that allows farm workers in the field to manage their work and keep records. The system has been in continuous development for over 10 years, and is regularly in use by many users, so a mind for backwards compatibility is a must. The development style is a prototyping and iterating approach, with a goal of creating components that can be reused in a variety of different contexts and for a variety of different purposes. This approach has allowed us to build software that makes it simple and intuitive for our users to capture data, but can turn simple data into rich and complex analysis and reporting that can drive critical business processes and decisions.
