Gardin is a UK based VC-backed startup on a mission to create a more nutritious and sustainable world. We are developing optical remote sensing technology and analytics to measure plant physiology so food producers can grow higher quality produce at lower costs and reduce waste. Gardin’s tools and technologies will empower food producers to grow superior yields with the highest nutritional density; optimally, sustainably and affordably.
Farmers want to farm, and we understand this. Our operating system runs in the background, constantly monitoring produce, optimising resources; energy, water, nutrients and providing insights to the farmer so they have a birds-eye view over where they can intervene as and when required.
Farmers get a higher quality product while reducing their operating cost and carbon footprint - a win-win for the farmer, the planet and our ever-increasing population.
Gardin is seeking a talented embedded software engineer who has previous experience of, and a keen interest in electronics and software/firmware which makes those electronics function to join us as we redefine how food growers understand and optimise the health of their crops.
You'll be an integral member of our close-knit early-stage engineering team, and will primarily focus on building drivers and sensor pipelines for our new groundbreaking sensor platform, but will also be expected to engage with and contribute to, the development of our backend stack too, in line with current business goals and priorities.
In a nutshell, this is a full-stack developer role, with a strong lean toward device software and firmware development. As we continue to grow, you will be able to choose whether to specialise further, or to remain working more broadly across our wider platform stack.
With us preparing to scale dramatically over the next 12 to 18 months, this is an incredible opportunity to join Gardin at a critical stage in our journey, and through your thoughts, ideas and contributions, make a very real and direct impact on our future success.
