================
I usually post this long thing about why we're a great company to work for and I realized that nothing compared to mission and purpose. You can read our accolades and I'll reference them below, but the truth is nothing matters more than why we exist:
We're fighting climate change by building better apps for farmers and the agricultural economy. Our farmers are able to produce better quality crops with fewer resources and less land. For example, we piloted a program with Anheiser-Busch and saved 2 BILLION gallons of water in the last year.
If I didn't believe this was one of the most important problems of our generation to help future generations, I wouldn't put so much emphasis on this. If you want a mission you can tell your grandchildren about in hopes of creating a better environment for farmers (and really the whole world), we're working on it right here, right now.
I'd love to hear from you and learn more about how you can work with us. Our stack is JavaScript (React &amp; Apollo front end, some Node on back end) and Python (Flask for the back end).
For reference, we're a Unicorn company:
