Welcome to Agerpoint:

Agerpoint is pioneering development of a spatial data platform for agriculture and climate insights powered by scalable terrestrial data capture and precise automated plant-level analytics. Our team develops technologies to digitize, analyze and comprehend the natural world.

Through a combination of artificial intelligence, high performance computing, computer vision and advanced analytics, the Agerpoint platform fuses together sensor data from mobile devices, terrestrial vehicles, drones and satellites with other information and human observations to create a highly precise, quantifiable and interactive digital record to enable better decision-making for clients across agriculture, forestry, government and conservation organizations.

Agerpoint's Know Your Carbon™ serves to provide credibility and transparency to carbon credits by leveraging Agerpoint’s unique ability to create highly accurate 3D plant models and efficiently extract physical measurements and health information using automation and AI. Know Your Carbon™ was recently selected as winner of the World Economic Forum’s Carbon Market Challenge as announced at the United Nations COP26 Climate Summit.

Our mission is to improve quality of life for our planet’s inhabitants and mitigate climate change by enabling a transformational shift in how we measure and monitor plants, crops and forests.

Agerpoint is headquartered in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina at the Alexandria Center for AgTech - the country's first and only integrated multi-tenant, amenity-rich agtech R&D and greenhouse site.

About the Role:

Our Engineering team seeks a contract/part-time Front End Software Development Engineer to support development as of our cloud software platform, Agerpoint Cloud. Agerpoint is pioneering how 2D and 3D data layers captured from smartphones, drones, and satellites are used to create precise models and measures of plants, crops and forests to contribute to a sustainable food supply and address the challenges of climate change.

We seek an engineer that possesses a passion for development, delivering results and pushing the boundaries of their craft. A successful engineer will have prior experience building client-facing, SaaS applications, as well as administrative interfaces for internal management of users, data and job processing. We are specifically seeking an engineer with experience building solutions for visualizing and interacting with 3D data types (e.g., point clouds or meshes) in web environments as well as familiarity with managing 2D spatial data in mapping interfaces. A strong candidate will also have experience building tabular and graphical JavaScript data visualizations. You will have the autonomy to and opportunity to shape the design and development of the front-end stack that will be used by our global customer base and internally by the Agerpoint team.

As a Front End Software Development Engineer, you will be responsible for development, deployment and maintenance of the core front-end components of the Agerpoint Cloud suite of web applications. You will have a significant influence on our overall strategy by helping define product features, driving the system architecture, and implementing best practices that enable a quality product and output.

The ideal engineer for this role is comfortable working in a dynamic and creative team charged with exploring an uncharted and rapidly evolving domain. You will be researching, developing and building on an entirely new application paradigm - a challenge that will demand rapid experimentation and prototyping without sacrificing code quality or attention to detail. You'll need a keen understanding of the state of the art in interactive 2D and 3D data visualization technologies, digital twins, point cloud datasets and an ambition to discover what the future holds in this space.

• Proactively engage in engineering discussions, sharing ideas and learning as much as possible from others
• Analyze and optimize UI and infrastructure application code for quality, efficiency and performance

Additional Requirements

• Experience with modern 2D/3D GIS and mapping technologies (e.g., OpenLayers, Three.js, Cesium, Potree)
• Experience building interactive data visualizations (2D and 3D) and data tables
• Proficiency in package management (e.g., NPM, Yarn) and version control (e.g., Git)
• Experience developing AR/VR applications a plus
• Familiarity with ARKit and RealtyKit
• Experience using iOS frameworks like UIKit, AVFoundation, Core Motion, Core ML, CloudKit, SiriKit, StoreKit, etc.
