👋 About Us
We’re The Healthy Chicken Company, an ag-tech start-up that believes you can have your chicken and eat it too! Using advanced AI, we’re on a mission to transform the poultry industry by improving the lives of the 1.8 trillion chickens reared over the next few decades.
How do we do it? Our system ‘watches’ flocks and sheds with smart cameras and sensors and delivers data and insights to farmers (and others in the supply chain) that help improve welfare. It’s a win-win-win-win: good for the birds, good for farmers, good for the environment and good for you!
Our team is made up of industry-leading technical talent and ambitious entrepreneurs who genuinely want to make a difference. We embrace diversity, representing 10+ nationalities and people from all walks of life (there are even some vegans in our ranks; all welcome). We’re fun, quirky, humble, ambitious, and passionate.
It’s an exciting time of growth for FLOX – and we’re looking for like-minded people to join the team.
💼 About The Role
We are currently seeking a fixed term Data Analyst/Data Scientist to join our team on a 4-month fixed-term contract, with room for extension depending on budget. The successful candidate will be responsible for building dashboards and data solutions to support our operational and client-facing needs. The role requires a self-starter with strong technical and project management skills, capable of working independently and proactively engaging with stakeholders, including clients, farmers, and team members.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone with a product-focused mindset who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is eager to create impactful tools.
