Job Description

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:

This is an opportunity to come in at the ground level and help deliver products at an early stage at the intersection of agriculture and artificial intelligence. We are working to push the boundaries of what is possible in a rapidly evolving field. There is no roadmap here. You’ll need to identify the opportunities and help deliver the products that transform this space. We’re looking for an experienced technical program manager with demonstrated talent for creativity, and execution. Past experience managing agtech products on equipment is a plus.

How you will make an impact:

• Manage the product development life cycle including planning, tracking, and delivering product releases for agricultural perception systems
• Collaborate closely across many teams like Product Management, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, Data Science, Operations, Marketing, and Commercial
• Seek out all necessary schedule inputs and formulate development plans - then keep the teams tracking to it, managing any changes to the plan appropriately
• Drive communication of progress/status within the core team and cross functional teams
• Propose and drive process and tooling improvements to help run the product development cycle efficiently and effectively

What you should have:

• BA/BS degree in a technical field or equivalent practical experience
• 6+ years of relevant work experience managing large, complex technology projects
• Experience working with hardware products (i.e. sensors, electronics, robotics)
• Outstanding communication, interpersonal and presentation skills

It would be great if you also had these:

• Experience managing end-to-end execution of product development programs
• Expert at the practical application of program management principles and tools
• Track record of quickly earning credibility among peers based on knowledge, flexibility and accomplishments
• Agriculture industry experience
