Land Life Company | Amsterdam, Netherlands | we normally work 2 days ONSITE 3 days REMOTE | Software Engineer | No visa sponsorship
ABOUT US
Our mission is to help restore the world’s 2 billion hectares of degraded land with sustainable approaches and disruptive technologies. We plant trees at scale across the globe to kickstart ecosystems and the communities that depend on them. We are an international, technology-driven reforestation company based in the Netherlands with local teams in Spain, the US and Australia. We work with corporations, governments and large-scale NGO’s to rebuild nature, create carbon sinks and reconnect people and the planet. We are a fast growing company and are constantly bringing new business models and climate solutions to our customers and partners.
In the 2021 planting season, we are restoring more than 4,000 hectares of land globally, planting over 4 million trees in Spain, the US, Australia and other countries. Growing at a fast rate each year, Land Life Company is becoming a global leader in ecosystem restoration.
THE ROLE
We are a small team of 3 pragmatic software engineers. We work on all kinds of cool stuff, from internal tools that assists our ecologists and biologists in makings decisions about future plantings, to a client facing application that helps our clients keep track of the planting projects they are involved in. We also maintain a handy internal tree monitoring app written in React Native that helps us monitor the state of the trees we plant.
We are looking to add an extra software engineer to the team to help us tackle a new challenge. Our company is growing fast. To be able to sustain that growth we need to improve some of our key internal business processes and operations. This includes things like keeping track of our targets (how many hectares of land do we want to reforest), customer demand, inventory management, and the progress of a planting over time.
The main responsibility of this position (at least the first year or so) is to help us develop software that supports these internal business processes. This includes porting a handful of spreadsheets and business requirements into a unified software tool. We are still not sure how such a tool would look like (should we build something ourselves, should we us an ERP like solution, should we help the team create better spreadsheets?). Your role will be to take full ownership of this project from a software perspective.
Tech Stack: Python, Django, React/React Native (for some projects), Postgres, GCP.
