Full Time
Experienced

About the Company

Plant-level knowledge is vital to satisfying the food production needs from a projected forty percent increase in world population over the next thirty years. We support that goal by continuously and automatically assessing the health and performance of the world’s +$1T specialty crops, one plant at a time, with deep learning and imaging. Currently, Bloomfield is focused on grapes and blueberries. Our portable Flash cameras and supporting platform capture, geo-locate, and share the condition of each vine, tree, and bush, along with the various features of that plant. This information, in turn, informs a variety of daily decisions and actions that growers take to increase the size, quality, and consistency of yields without increasing the resources used to produce those yields.

  • Collaborate with UI/UX designers to ensure the technical feasibility of their designs and implement visually appealing user interfaces.

  • Work closely with back-end developers to integrate front-end components and help guide API design.
  • Stay up-to-date with industry trends, best practices, and emerging technologies in front-end development.

Qualifications:
