Role Description The world's farmers make high-stakes decisions every season — and the platforms built by Digital Farming Solutions Engineering are what makes those decisions smarter. As a Staff Engineer, your role is to ensure those platforms are architected for scale, reliability, and the demands of AI and machine learning at a global level. You will set technical direction, define how teams approach complex problems across precision agriculture data, geospatial imagery, and cloud infrastructure, and resolve the systemic challenges that no single team can solve alone. Equally important, you will raise the engineering culture around you — mentoring senior engineers into Staff-level leaders, championing best practices, and ensuring that what we build today is maintainable, extensible, and worthy of the mission it serves. Your Tasks and Responsibilities - Define and drive the technical strategy for the organization's highest-priority initiatives, from architecture through delivery. - Bring clarity to ambiguous, high-complexity problems — translating strategic goals into actionable technical direction that teams can execute with confidence. - Set and evolve the engineering standards for reliability, observability, and code quality that define how Digital Farming Solutions builds software at scale. - Actively develop senior engineers into Staff-level leaders, sponsoring their growth into initiatives with organization-wide scope and impact. - Champion a culture where engineering decisions are grounded in farmer outcomes — connecting technical tradeoffs directly to the real-world impact on the people we serve. - Shape the technical approach for the full spectrum of agricultural data — from on-farm precision sensors to satellite and geospatial imagery — ensuring platforms handle it with accuracy, scale, and performance. - Drive architectural decisions for data-intensive, algorithmically complex precision agriculture systems, partnering with data science and product to turn research into production-grade capabilities. Qualifications - BS or equivalent in Computer Science or related technical field or equivalent combination of education and experience. - 8+ years of hands-on experience in software development. - Proven history of ability to quickly learn new skills and technologies. - Experience leading across team(s) the development of highly scalable cloud based (AWS preferred) microservices and data pipelines using container technologies (e.g., Docker). - Ability to take ambiguous requirements in complex domains and distill them down into actionable tasks for other engineers. - Excellent written and verbal communication skills including the ability to present complex information in a clear and concise manner to engineering and non-engineering audiences. - Expert knowledge in at least one modern backend programming language (e.g., Java, Python) with the ability to write understandable, testable code with an eye towards maintainability. - Strong understanding of at least one containerization technology (e.g., Docker). - Strong understanding of at least one public cloud platform. - Strong knowledge of software development methodologies and best practices. - Experience using observability techniques to drive support and improvements of systems. - Proficiency with managing CICD pipelines (e.g., GitLab Pipelines, GitHub Actions). Requirements - Experienced with modern REST and GraphQL (Strong Plus) API design. - Exceptional customer focus, ownership, and drive. - Proven ability to develop other strong senior engineers into Staff engineers, operating and leading their own initiatives with org-wide scope and high impact. - Experience with relational and non-relational data stores. Expert knowledge of at least one. Strong knowledge and experience with SQL including performance tuning and query optimization. - Expert knowledge of at least one containerization technology (e.g., Docker). - Strong understanding of multiple AWS capabilities (EC2, S3, RDS, SQS, etc.). Expert knowledge of multiple AWS capabilities. - Strong experience with event driven architectures using messaging middleware (SQS, JMS, etc.). - Experience with layered geospatial data structures and data representations (Strong Plus). Benefits - Employees can expect to be paid a salary of approximately $117k-171k. - Additional compensation may include a bonus or incentive program (if relevant). - Additional benefits include health care, vision, dental, retirement, PTO, sick leave, etc. Company Description Bayer is an Equal Opportunity Employer/Disabled/Veterans.
