## Description

Perfect role for a mid professional looking to grow their AgriTech career in Leeds.

Farming is running out of land, water and labour at the same time demand keeps climbing. That's why an established AgriTech business in Leeds is building the systems that let growers, agronomists and supply chains make better decisions with less waste. This AgriTech Software Engineer role sits right at the centre of that work, inside a company with the scale and structure to back it properly.

This isn't a startup where you're firefighting with no framework. It's an enterprise operation (250+ people) with established best practices, clear reporting lines and real career paths. You'll know what's expected of you, and you'll have the backing to deliver it.

Here's what you'll be doing:

Build and maintain software that processes agricultural data, from sensor feeds to yield forecasting models

Work with cross-functional teams to translate field-level problems into working technical solutions

Write clean, tested code and contribute to code reviews across the engineering team

Integrate with third-party APIs covering weather data, satellite imagery and IoT hardware

Troubleshoot production issues on live systems used by farms and agribusinesses across the UK
