OUR MISSION
Mineral’s mission is to discover the intelligence of plantkind to feed and protect humankind. Our technology embraces the complexity of nature, unlocking agriculture data so the world can reimagine sustainable food production. This means leveraging advanced technology and use of AI across the total plant ecosystem to turn complex data into understandings that enable greater efficiency, productivity and sustainability.
Agriculture background preferred but not required — just the curiosity and passion to learn. If you are excited to make a difference in global food production and help work toward a more sustainable future for agriculture, we’d love to talk with you.
The Role:
Location: US (Remote), travel to Mountain View, CA at most 1 week per month (more initially).
This is an opportunity to combine your agronomic understanding with your passion for data science modeling to understand how well our perception models work in the real-world. You'll be working on projects at the intersection of agriculture, big data and AI. You'll partner with our modeling team who train, validate, and deploy perception models in production agriculture environments. You'll partner with our MLOps Data team who are collecting the data & images, from diverse locations & times of the year, and labeling them for model training. You'll take responsibility for pressure testing our understanding of model performance in the real-world, design experiments that identify any gaps in performance, and find creative solutions to bridge those gaps. You’ll have the opportunity to problem solve and be a part of the development of products that transform this space.
If you are a Data Scientist with a passion and experience in agriculture, and are excited to make a difference in global food production and climate change, we’d love to talk with you.
