at Semios

🏢 About Semios

Semios Group is a leader in digital agriculture, managing over 100 million acres across five countries. As part of Semios, Greenbook builds the connected intelligence layer for ag input and seed data, empowering ag professionals to make faster, more confident decisions. Working here means contributing to sustainability by reducing pesticide dependency and crop losses.

About This Role

Your work will directly impact how ag professionals access and use data to improve sustainability and profitability. This role is central to transforming the agricultural ecosystem through data-driven insights.

💡 A Day in the Life

Your day might start with a stand-up with your remote engineering team, reviewing sprint progress. You'll then dive into user research interviews with agronomists or retailers to validate new features. Afternoon could involve analyzing product metrics, updating the roadmap, and collaborating with marketing on a product launch plan.

  • Deeply passionate about agriculture and sustainability, with a genuine understanding of growers' daily realities.
  • Proven experience in product management for data-intensive platforms, ideally in agtech or B2B SaaS.

  • Comfortable working remotely and collaborating across multiple brands (Semios, Agworld, Altrac, Greenbook).
