Orchard Robotics
Senior Full-Stack Engineer
Orchard Robotics, Bellevue, Washington, us, 98009
Orchards in the U.S. produce $35B of fruit every year, but fruit farmers are losing 30-50% of their potential crop because they lack data needed to manage crops precisely.

About Us:
Orchard Robotics is a seed-stage startup backed by top VCs like General Catalyst, Contrary, Soma Capital, Humba Ventures, and angel investors like Howard Lerman (founder of Yext).
We’re building Robots & AI that enable precision crop management. Our AI-powered camera systems count, size, and measure the growth of every fruit on 1,000,000+ trees in an orchard. Our mission is to help farmers to produce more food for the world, much more efficiently.
Farmers are using our technology today in some of the largest farms in the nation.
Background for the role:
Here at Orchard Robotics, our AI-powered camera systems collect precision data about millions of fruit on tens of thousands of trees every day. This includes everything from fruit count, size, color, growth rate, tree trunk size, leaf canopy area, and much more – terabytes of data going through our system.
However, all this data is useless unless farmers can actually utilize it in their day-to-day operations. When a farmer is managing hundreds of millions of fruit on thousands of acres, it’s critical they can easily understand what is happening to every tree, block, and acre of land.
Your job will be to utilize your extensive breadth & depth of frontend (Typescript/React) and backend (Flask, PostgreSQL) knowledge to help us invent new solutions in our web app / precision data platform – that is changing the way farmers manage their orchards today.
You will have ownership over the frontend + backend development of our data platform, FruitScope, where our farmers view every piece of data, every recommendation, and each insight collected by our AI-powered camera systems.
We value development speed, technical expertise, and grit. In the agriculture industry where it typically takes many years for innovations from incumbents to come to light, we win by moving fast and creating new & inventive ways for farmers to gain previously unknown insights into their orchards.
We ship new features on the timescale of days and weeks, but the end product of our work is a system that will change how farmers have operated for many years, for the better.
When the software you build helps a farmer utilize their data better, say, to grow even one more apple per tree, that adds up to millions of pounds of fruit across an orchard, meaning millions of more people fed!
If you're looking to help make a positive impact in the world by transforming the future of agriculture, come join us. Even if you may not meet every requirement, we'd strongly encourage you to apply.
About the role:
As an early engineer, you'll receive generous equity compensation Full-time role at our Bellevue, WA headquarters Flexible working hours Comprehensive Health, Vision, and Dental coverage (we pay 100% of the premium) We move fast, and sometimes this means staying late or working weekends Our team is close-knit & highly driven, you’ll work directly with our CEO and entire team We’re deeply motivated by the impact we’re making – every line of code written or new system built means one less fruit that goes to waste, and one more person who is fed.
What you’ll do:
Build new features in our web app to help farmers better understand their data Ship scalable software that is capable of analyzing the hundreds of millions of fruit in an orchard Wrangle large amounts of fruit data (at the scale of hundreds of millions to billions) Iterate quickly on customer feedback Develop for our backend, frontend, UI/UX, and database. Maintain and develop our cloud infrastructure and security. Optimize systems to be fast (i.e. query and calculate statistics for millions of fruit at a time) Build comprehensive test suites to validate accuracy over real-world edge cases
What makes you a good fit:
You know how to build fast, reliable, scalable software. You're comfortable working with cloud (Google Cloud), React frontend, Python / Flask backend, and databases (postgreSQL). Hands on experience building production-quality web apps at scale You're a hard worker with relentless persistence. You aren't afraid of moving fast, learning what you don't know, and are comfortable with a lot of autonomy. You are a “jack of all trades” developer, comfortable working on all parts of the stack.
Bonus Points:
Prior experience building web apps around very large amounts of data Experience building bespoke RESTful APIs Experience with GIS data and systems Experience with data security and permissions management
