Modular Science | Hardware/Software Generalist | Onsite | Petaluma, CA Modular Science (YC S17) is building robots for outdoor vegetable farming. We're automating the entire growing cycle: planting, watering, weeding, and harvesting. Our goal is to make it easier to do sustainable farming. We have made a lot of progress: our machines are working today at our test farm near Petaluma, CA. We have operational autonomous driving, imaging, and plant handling. We're currently getting ready for spring planting. Our daily work involves Python, computer vision, Arduinos, EC2 instances, GPS, stepper motors, water valves, and muddy fields. We're looking for a generalist with both hardware and software skills to join the founding team as the first full-time employee. Compensation will include meaningful equity. If you're interested in helping us improve farming, please send a short note and a resume to jobs@modularscience.com.
