How to Apply for Enterprise Applications Analyst (CRM)

at Semios

🏢 About Semios

Semios is a unique agtech company that combines IoT sensors, data analytics, and predictive modeling to help farmers reduce pesticide use and crop losses. Working here means contributing directly to sustainable agriculture through technology, with a mission-driven focus that goes beyond typical software roles. Their remote-first culture in Canada offers the chance to impact global food systems from anywhere.

About This Role

This Enterprise Applications Analyst (CRM) role involves configuring and enhancing CRM, CPQ, and Field Services modules to support sales and service workflows at Semios. You'll design integrations between CRM and external agricultural data systems using APIs and middleware, ensuring reliable data flow for pest and disease management insights. Your work directly enables sales and service teams to deliver data-driven solutions to farmers, reducing pesticide dependency.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might involve configuring CRM workflows to support sales teams selling pest management solutions, then designing API integrations to sync field data from IoT sensors into the CRM for service teams. You'd likely collaborate with agricultural business stakeholders to translate their pest management requirements into technical specifications, while troubleshooting data synchronization issues between systems to ensure reliable information flow for decision-making.
