<div><span style="font-size:24px;">About the Role</span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:11pt;">Yard Stick is looking for a Data Scientist to help us fight climate change with soil. This role will coordinate with our hardware team to improve data collection from our novel spectral soil probe for building machine learning models, will partner with our soil science team to collect and analyze soil and geospatial data sets, and will collaborate with our business development team to accurately and effectively communicate soil carbon results to our customers.</span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:11pt;">On a typical day, our field team is out collecting data on farms. Raw data from spectrometers and other sensors get uploaded (once internet is available) and ingested by our data pipeline. Your job is to take this real-world messy data, process and normalize it, deal with partial collections and find inconsistencies. You’ll collaborate across the company to combine that data with lab analyses and other data sources to build statistical and machine learning models that estimate carbon stocks. Your work drives the incentives for climate-friendly agriculture.</span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:11pt;">Yard Stick is a remote-first company and the technology team is distributed around the U.S. This role will report directly to Yard Stick’s VP of Software, and will work under the technical leadership of the Head of Data Science.

We are on a mission to reverse climate change with agriculture. Scientists and farmers alike know that climate-friendly agricultural practices have the potential to remove atmospheric CO2 at gigaton/year scale. When these practices are adopted, more carbon is stored in soils, improving soil health and fighting climate change. But significant measurement challenges have held soil carbon efforts back - until now.</span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:11pt;">By reducing the cost of soil carbon measurement by 70-90%, Yard Stick will dramatically expand the opportunities for evidence-based regenerative practices to simultaneously improve ecosystem health, increase farmer income, and combat climate change. </span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:11pt;">Current soil carbon measurement technologies are slow, expensive, and cumbersome, relying on conventional soil cores and labs to quantify carbon stocks.

The Yard Stick team and our client base is spread across the country, but our current focus is primarily in the Midwest. We’re growing quickly, and this position will be an essential role with significant responsibility. </span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:11pt;">You will be primarily responsible for testing our hardware and software in fields across the US to help us evaluate and improve our technology’s accuracy, durability, and usability. You will be leading projects geared towards calibrating our technology, as well as collecting measurements to quantify stocks on client lands using a variety of different methodologies. </span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:11pt;">You’ll provide feedback on hardware and software tools alike, as Yard Stick has innovative offerings in both domains. Obviously, when stuff breaks, you’ll document why and help us brainstorm ways to improve. </span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:11pt;">Yard Stick’s offerings combine a large number of disparate disciplines, including highly technical hardware, a web app which manages carbon measurement and GIS data, and ML pipelines which connect the two. This person ultimately will work cross-disciplinarily along with our hardware, software, soil science, and business teams alike to maximize the pace of Yard Stick’s R&amp;D and therefore climate impact, so the ability to communicate clearly to a wide range of people is a must.</span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:11pt;">We need someone who can handle rigorous field work with efficiency and exceptional precision. The ideal candidate for this role is comfortable traveling, working outdoors, handling a wide array of equipment, and working in a team off 2-6 people through projects that can include rapid schedule changes, long days, and inclement weather. </span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:11pt;">Currently, Yard Stick is focused on proof of concept of our in situ spectral probe. Generating high-quality, publishable data requires excellent field operations. In parallel, we’re also creating our commercial offerings. This role will be crucial in carrying out both streams of work.</span></div><br><br><h3>Qualifications - Must Have</h3><ul><li><b>Some combination of education and/or experience in natural sciences, agriculture, conservation, soil science, natural resource management or another related field of study. </b>We don’t require formal education, but one way or another, you have the experience that’ll make you comfortable on farms and around producers, and are no stranger to having your hands in the dirt. </li><li><b>Extensive experience and comfort with physical field work. </b>Experience working with your hands out in the field is key to this role. You don’t flinch at the idea of 8 hours in the sun moving from customer farm to farm, sometimes for two weeks straight.</li><li><b>Comfort with field tools, technologies and strategies. </b>Our offerings use technologies like GPS, ATVs, and mobile app-based sample inventory tracking systems. You can drive an ATV, or you’re not afraid to learn. You use mechanical tools comfortably. Note: Yard Stick will provide a vehicle if you don’t have one for this role, or will generously reimburse if you do.</li><li><b>Attention to detail and commitment to craft. </b>When you take a 30 cm soil core, it’s 30 cm. You care deeply about the details. You take written instructions well, triple-check your work by nature, and will follow an SOP to the letter. You are proud to do your work very well.</li><li><b>Strong personal independence and entrepreneurial autonomy. </b>If you can’t get your boss on the phone, you figure it out. You assess the situation, consider solutions, make a plan, and execute, even if your closest coworker is 100 miles away.</li><li><b>Comfort with extended travel. </b> Projects can often be in remote areas of the country -- spending a week or two at a time away from home is essential to this role.</li><li><b>Personal enthusiasm and comfort in agricultural contexts. </b>You care about farming or ranching. The idea of helping activate agriculture to fight against climate change excites you. It matters to you that you’re working on a problem of existential significance.</li><li><b>Ability to share product feedback to improve systems. </b>When you’re asked for feedback, you pay attention and communicate observations clearly, especially in writing. You document things carefully and are curious when using new products or technologies.</li><li><b>Existing permanent authorization to work in the United States.</b></li></ul><h3>Qualifications - Nice To Have</h3><ul><li><b>Personal, durable enthusiasm for the challenge of climate change.</b></li><li><b>Awareness of current issues in carbon markets - particularly carbon removal. </b>You’ve heard of offsets/credits and some of the attendant criticism of low-quality projects of the past and present. You’ve got some basic knowledge about how carbon markets work, and you’ve heard about how carbon removal is a new, exciting, and controversial approach to climate challenges.</li><li><b>There will be a significant portion of the year that we’re not sampling, and we’re interested in other skills you can bring to the team! </b>Specifically if you have any of the following, we’d love to hear about it: GIS or other mapping software; vehicle and equipment maintenance; equipment + logistics management; agricultural sales or similar; agronomy; data science, etc.</li></ul><h3>Compensation and Other Details</h3><ul><li>$30-40/hr to start, with travel expenses (including time) paid.
