We’re an international agtech startup pioneering an ambitious mission in a budding industry where agriculture meets technology. Through the use of data-driven insights, natural microbiology, and innovative digital technologies, Indigo is partnering across the supply chain, ultimately cultivating a scalable climate solution and enhanced ecosystem that beneficially serves farmers, consumers, and the planet alike.

Our mission is unique, and therefore our teams are too: from multigenerational farming gurus who understand the land as though it were an extension of themselves, to cutting-edge techies on the frontier of innovation, our teams are a reflection of the range of the stakeholders we serve: the Earth, the Farmer, and the Consumer. Indigo is extraordinary, and we owe that to the individuals who make up our community and enable success through diversity of thought, experience, background, perspective, race, sexuality, gender, age, and everything else that makes a person uniquely themselves. Connected by a common vision and empowered by diversity, we aren’t ordinary, and neither are you. Embrace your extraordinary and join Indigo in cultivating a healthier planet fueled by unique game changers.

Title: 

Senior Software Engineer, Foundations Team

Description:

Indigo helps farmers make farming more sustainable to combat climate change and protect the environment. Our grain, carbon and transportation marketplaces enable farmers to profit from those sustainable choices.

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Foundations team, you will create sophisticated systems and infrastructure for the automated orchestration for our marketplaces. The platform coordinates moving truckloads of crops from seller to buyer and payments from buyer to seller. Your expertise in software development will help us create a world-class customer experience for our customers.

As a Senior Software Software Engineer at Indigo you’ll:

• Collaborate with product managers, backend engineers, and data science engineers to spec, build, test and deploy code
• Brainstorm features with product managers and domain experts based on your knowledge of the codebase
• Be responsible for developing new areas of the product, with an eye towards long-term sustainability.
• You’ll expertly review code, have your code reviewed, and mentor other engineers

About You

• You’ve been building applications professionally for 4+ years.
• You possess strong computer science fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, programming languages, distributed systems, and data management.  
• You have deep experience in one or more imperative programming languages. We work in Python but alternate experience is acceptable.
• You are a strong communicator. You can lead technical architecture discussions and help drive technical decisions within your team.
• You're comfortable collaborating across teams to discuss technical and usability trade-offs.
• You strive to create fast, reliable, testable and documented code that others can understand.
