Founding Engineer - atmo (Berlin-based / Hybrid)

At atmo , we've built a core AI product at the intersection of agricultural transition and green finance . As an early-stage company moving from first rollout to scale, we're looking for a hands-on Founding Engineer to join our founding team and help build the AI backbone of our product. Over the past year, we've deliberately evolved from a pure data product into an AI-first platform . AI is now central to everything we do - from ingesting messy, real-world agricultural data to unlocking new financing flows for sustainable farming. We're looking for someone who wants to get hands-on: building and managing the AI agents that power the product, and working closely with our CSO to turn science models into shipped features. About atmo atmo is building the infrastructure for financing the transition of agriculture. Agriculture is facing massive pressure to adapt - from climate change and rising input costs to new technologies and changing market requirements. Yet farmers and their financing partners often lack the data, tools and business cases needed to make the right investment decisions. atmo is an AI-powered Agriculture Finance OS that brings farm, climate and financial data together to turn complex agricultural transition investments into clear, bankable business cases. Our platform helps farmers identify profitable transition opportunities, assess ROI and financing needs, access relevant solution providers and generate bank-ready financing reports. For banks and other financial institutions, atmo provides the data and decision intelligence needed to confidently finance the next generation of agricultural investments. We work across the agricultural ecosystem, including farmers, banks, solution providers and food companies, and are already active in Germany, the Netherlands and the UK, with partnerships and pilots across leading financial and agricultural organisations. Founded in Berlin in 2023, atmo is backed by leading investors, accelerators and non-dilutive funding programmes. We are a lean, ambitious team combining deep expertise in agriculture, finance, climate science, AI and B2B SaaS - with the goal of making agricultural transition investable at scale.
