Here's what you'll be doing: Analyse crop performance data from satellite imagery, field sensors and yield records to spot patterns growers can act on Build and maintain dashboards that translate raw agricultural data into clear, usable insights Work with agronomists to validate findings against real field conditions, not just spreadsheets Support predictive models for yield forecasting, pest risk and irrigation timing Prepare reports and presentations for clients who need the numbers explained in plain terms Flag data quality issues early, before they skew a model or a recommendation Here are the skills you'll need: A few years' experience working with agricultural, environmental or geospatial data Comfortable in Python or R for data analysis, plus solid SQL Working knowledge of GIS tools and remote sensing data (QGIS, ArcGIS or similar) Able to explain technical findings to non-technical colleagues without losing the detail that matters Genuine curiosity about crop science.
You don't need a farming background, but you need to care about getting it right Organised enough to manage several data streams at once without losing track of what's reliable Key perks and benefits: Salary of C$49,000 to C$65,500, depending on experience Fully remote role, with the flexibility to work from home anywhere near Ottawa or further afield Private medical insurance and pension contribution Annual leave allowance with genuinely flexible working, not just the phrase Bonus scheme and real scope for progression as the company grows Why pursue a career in AgriTech?
