Senior Javascript Developer

AgriSound

At AgriSound, we’re tackling the problem of the rapid, global decline in bees and pollinator species. Our technology monitors bee health and productivity and we’re starting to work with some major partners to bring our products to market.

We’re creating a people-first culture where enthusiasm and determination counts. Innovation and R&D is at the heart of our business which means that you need to be comfortable with change and want to grow with us as we push the boundaries of beekeeping and environmental management.

If you’re a fun, value driven self-starter with an interest in agriculture and the environment then we’d love to hear from you.
