Are you an experienced software developer or researcher looking for your next challenge?   Do you have a background in full-stack development?  Do you want to further your career in one of the UK’s research-intensive Universities? Do you want to contribute towards NetZero Smart farming?

The Global Food and Environment Institute (GFEI) is an interdisciplinary research community, which brings together members from across academia, industry, and public policy. We envisage a radically different global food system which works with nature and provides everybody with access to safe and nutritious food. Our aim is to develop enduring solutions that help bring about transformative change to create a food system that is socially just, climate-smart and goes beyond sustainability; able to adapt vigorously to enhance the future habitability of our planet. 

Our smart-farm facility aims to develop a fully instrumented and connected farm where we can develop agro-environmental models based on real-time heterogeneous data feeds. We have deployed a multitude of sensors both mobile and static to monitor various environmental parameters. This post is geared to develop an IoT connectivity stack for this sensor array to allow real-time monitoring of data feeds. The core objective of this post is to help us develop bespoke hardware platforms ranging from LTE-M/LoRA to 5G stack for instrumenting existing environmental sensors.
