Senior Software Engineer - Remote

Overview

At Klim, we’re creating a joint movement with farmers and businesses to make regenerative agriculture scalable and impactful. As a Berlin-based AgriTech start-up, we’re empowering farmers to restore soil, boost biodiversity, and capture carbon—all while earning revenue through our platform. Backed by $22 million in Series A funding, we’re expanding globally, partnering with major food industry leaders like Nestlé and Kaufland to help them reduce emissions along their supply chains, while making them more resilient and profitable at the same time. Since 2020, we’ve supported 4,000 farmers, covering 800,000 hectares (5% of Germany’s farmland!) and we are now the number 1 provider for Scope 3 solutions in Europe! If you’re passionate about building a sustainable food system and driving real climate impact, join us and help create a healthier planet!
