Backend Engineer - Farmer Experience

POSITION PURPOSE:

We are hiring a hands-on Backend Engineer to build, operate, and own the microservices that power FarmRise — a platform that puts agronomic advice directly into the hands of smallholder farmers. This is not a role where you hand off deployment and operations to someone else: you will design the service, write the code, own the AWS infrastructure it runs on, and be the first call when it breaks in production.

You will work across services spanning user onboarding, agronomy, commodity pricing, news/events, and third-party integrations. We are looking for someone who treats a production incident or an ambiguous requirement as their problem to solve, not someone waiting to be assigned a ticket.
