Full-Time Head of AI
Job Description
About FLOX
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 core system, NetFLOX, ‘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 a few vegetarians in our ranks; all welcome). We’re fun, quirky, humble, ambitious, and passionate.
