About This Job

Clean Crop Technologies, Inc. (“Clean Crop”) stops crop loss at the source, removing pathogens from seeds before they are planted, increasing yields, reducing in-field waste, and improving food safety. Clean Crop’s Clean Current technology combines electricity and food-grade gases to create cold plasma, inactivating a broad spectrum of contaminants from seed surfaces in a dry, automated, and residue-free process. We are building a dynamic team of engineers and technicians, administrators, and scientists with a passion for innovation, experimentation, pushing the envelope of what's possible, and a hunger to work at an agile start-up. If that sounds like you, we'd love to talk!

We are seeking a contract Project Engineer to drive the successful commissioning of our agricultural processing systems. In this role, you'll work directly with contract manufacturers to scale production while maintaining quality and performance standards. Our technology removes up to 99% of contaminants from seeds, addressing $220 billion in annual crop losses globally, and we need someone who can help us deliver this impact at scale.

This is a 3 month contract opportunity with possibility of hire based on the successful delivery of project objectives. This is an on-site role which will require travel between our Headquarters in Holyoke, MA, and our manufacturing partner in Westborough, MA.
