Descripción de la vacante

The Opportunity Hub UK Ltd in Nottingham is hiring an AgriTech Software Engineer to build features that process and visualise agricultural data from sensors to yield reports. You’ll work with product and data teams to ship practical solutions for farmers and agronomists, and help convert data into actionable decisions.

You’ll write robust backend and frontend code, integrate with IoT sensors and satellite feeds, and participate in architecture discussions as the platform scales.

Formación

• Experience with APIs, databases and cloud infrastructure (AWS or Azure).
• Interest in agriculture or environmental science is helpful but not required.
• Strong communication skills with non-technical stakeholders.
• Ability to own a feature from spec to deployment.
• Exposure to data-heavy systems (IoT, time-series, geospatial) is a plus.

Responsabilidades

• Build and maintain features that process and visualise agricultural data from sensors to reports.
• Write clean, tested code across the stack and work with product/data teams to ship features used by farmers and agronomists.
• Integrate with third-party APIs and hardware sources (IoT sensors, satellite feeds).
• Diagnose and fix production issues, including in remote, low-connectivity environments.
• Contribute to architecture and tooling decisions as the platform scales.

Descripción del empleo

Join a growing AgriTech company as an AgriTech Software Engineer in Nottingham.

Food production is under pressure. Yields need to go up, resources need to stretch further, and the farms that will manage it are the ones investing in software, not just machinery. This SME builds technology that helps agricultural businesses make better decisions with their data, and it's grown steadily by staying focused on that one problem. Now it needs an AgriTech Software Engineer to help build the next stage of that platform.

Here’s what you’ll be doing:

• Building and maintaining software features that process and visualise agricultural data, from sensor feeds to yield reports
• Writing clean, tested code across the stack, working closely with product and data teams to ship features that farmers and agronomists actually use
• Integrating with third‑party APIs and hardware data sources, including IoT sensors and satellite imagery feeds
• Diagnosing and fixing bugs in production systems, some of which run in genuinely remote, low‑connectivity environments
• Contributing to technical decisions on architecture and tooling as the platform scales
• Reviewing code from junior colleagues and helping raise the bar across the team

Here are the skills you’ll need:

• A few years of commercial software development experience, ideally with a modern backend language and framework
• Comfort working with APIs, databases, and cloud infrastructure (AWS or Azure both fine)
• An interest in agriculture or environmental science helps, though it’s not a dealbreaker if you’re curious and willing to learn the domain fast
• Good communication skills. You’ll be working with non‑technical stakeholders who know farming inside out but not code
• The ability to work independently on a feature from spec through to deployment
• Some exposure to data‑heavy systems (IoT, time‑series data, or geospatial data) is a strong plus

Key perks and benefits:

• £34,000 to £52,500, depending on experience
• Bonus scheme on top of base salary
• Private medical insurance and pension contribution
• Hybrid working, with flexibility around how your week is split between home and the Nottingham office
• Structured career development within a company that’s still growing into new markets

Why pursue a career in AgriTech?

AgriTech is one of the few sectors where software genuinely changes outcomes on the ground, not just spreadsheets. Nottingham has quietly built up a strong cluster of agricultural technology and life sciences businesses, backed by nearby universities and research farms, which makes it a sensible base for anyone wanting to build a long career here. Good engineers in this space tend to move fast into senior and lead roles, because the industry is still short of people who understand both the code and the crop.
