Job description

An exceptional opportunity for a mid-level AgriTech Platform Developer to shape the future of AgriTech in Cardiff.

Farming has become a data problem as much as a soil problem, and the businesses solving it well are growing fast. This early-stage AgriTech company, based in Cardiff, builds software that helps growers and supply chain partners make better decisions with less waste. Join now and you’re not maintaining someone else’s system. You’re helping build the thing from the ground up.

Here’s what you’ll be doing:

Build and maintain features across the platform, from sensor data ingestion through to the dashboards growers actually use day to day

Work directly with agronomists and field teams to turn real farming problems into working software

Write clean, tested code and review your teammates’ pull requests (and expect the same back)

Help design APIs and data models that need to handle unpredictable, messy real-world inputs like weather feeds and equipment telemetry

Take ownership of features end to end, from a rough idea in a stand-up to something live in production

Contribute to technical decisions on architecture and tooling as the platform scales

Requirements

Solid commercial experience building web applications, with a strong grasp of at least one modern backend or full-stack framework

Comfort working with APIs, databases and cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP or Azure)

An interest in AgriTech, sustainability or data-driven agriculture. Prior sector experience is a bonus, not a requirement

The ability to work independently and make good calls without waiting for permission on every detail

Clear communication skills. You’ll be explaining technical trade-offs to non-technical colleagues fairly often

A pragmatic streak. Startups reward people who ship rather than people who polish forever

Benefits & conditions

£33,500 to £51,500, depending on experience

Hybrid working from the Cardiff base, with flexibility on hours

Equity in the business. You’re building it, you should own a piece of it

A genuine learning and development budget, plus a remote-friendly culture when you need it

A flat structure where your ideas reach decision-makers without three layers of management in between

Why pursue a career in AgriTech?

About the company

AgriTech sits at the intersection of two things that aren’t going away: food production and climate pressure. That makes it one of the more resilient corners of tech to build a career in. Cardiff has a growing cluster of agricultural and environmental innovation, backed by strong university links and a lower cost of living than London, so your salary goes further while the sector itself matures around you. Get in early at a startup like this and the progression tends to move fast, because the business needs it to.
