About the role

We are hiring an Operations Engineer to support and improve customer delivery operations across CarbonFarm’s project portfolio.

This is a hands-on operational and technical role focused on optimising delivery reliably, accurately, and at scale.

Our work combines remote sensing, agricultural data, and machine learning. To deliver high-quality outputs to customers, we need strong operational execution across project setup, data collection coordination, quality checks, and delivery support.

You will work closely with our Head of Operations, Operations Manager, and the Engineering team, as well as the broader tech team, to coordinate inputs, verify data quality, support delivery workflows, and reduce operational bottlenecks across multiple projects in parallel.

This role is best suited to someone detail-oriented, comfortable working with technical tools, and able to follow structured processes with high accuracy.

What you’ll do

  • Support day-to-day delivery operations across multiple customer projects
  • Coordinate data collection and external dependencies, including data from IoT sensors
  • Verify data quality and flag issues early
  • Ensure operational workflows move forward on time and in the correct sequence
  • Collaborate with operations and technical teams to resolve operational blockers
  • Track delivery progress and help maintain delivery predictability across projects
  • Follow and improve repeatable operational processes
  • Use AI tools and lightweight automation to analyse data, QA outputs, and remove manual steps from delivery workflows
  • Maintain high-quality delivery standards through careful execution and clear escalation when needed
  • What we’re looking for

  • Bachelor’s, Master’s degree or equivalent in engineering, operations, data, or a related field
  • 1–3 years of experience in an operations, delivery, analytical, or technical support role
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to execute repetitive or process-heavy work with high accuracy
  • Strong spreadsheet skills and comfort working at volume without losing accuracy
  • Able to work with messy or incomplete data from varied sources and make sense of it
  • Fluent with AI tools as part of daily work: using them to analyse and cross-check datasets, draft scripts and queries, and speed up repetitive operational tasks
  • Ability to follow complex workflows and manage several tasks or projects in parallel
  • Strong organisational skills and comfort coordinating across teams and timezones
  • Good judgment on when to resolve issues independently and when to escalate
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills
  • English fluency
  • Based in India, with the ability to work closely with the wider team across timezones
  • Nice to have

  • Experience with image/data QA workflows and familiarity with geospatial tools (Google Earth, QGIS, etc.)
  • Familiarity with IoT data or time-series data, agricultural data, or geospatial data workflows
  • Experience performing QA checks on datasets or operational outputs
  • Exposure to process design, workflow optimisation, or service operations
  • Comfort using lightweight scripting, SQL, or internal tooling to improve manual workflows
  • Experience building AI-assisted workflows or agents that materially reduced manual effort
  • Basic scripting/automation mindset
  • Why this role matters

    This role is core to how CarbonFarm scales delivery.

    As we grow, we need operational execution so we can:

  • deliver excellent outcomes for customers
  • improve delivery speed and predictability
  • increase bandwidth for innovation and product development
  • You will help build the operational backbone that allows CarbonFarm to grow without compromising quality.
