Data Engineer - Machine Learning

GeoVisual Analytics is changing the way crops are cared for in the US and around the world. Using routine monitoring of fields with drones, in-field scouting, and satellites, we’re applying our NASA-funded ML algorithms to analyze crop maturity, health, and predicted yields, helping farmers to dramatically reduce production uncertainties and increase profits. We’re headquartered conveniently between Boulder and Denver with a beautiful view of the front range right outside our window. We’re growing and looking for a few committed professionals to help us scale. If you love the concept of combining drone-gathered imagery with Data Science then we might be your next great adventure.
