At FLOX, we believe smarter farms lead to thriving chickens and healthier lives. Our mission is simple: healthier chickens benefit everyone. That’s why we built FLOX
360, a system that uses Computer Vision, smart sensors, and real‑time insights to transform poultry farming. By helping farmers improve welfare and efficiency, FLOX
360 creates a win‑win for birds, farmers, the environment, and people everywhere. Today, we’re watching 60 million chickens a year.

Our product vision goes much further and is to empower our customers with autonomous intelligence at speed and scale. This role is a key part of achieving this vision to convert data into actionable intelligence.

We believe we are setting the standard for animal welfare and smart farming - and we’re just getting started.

We are a Series A ready start-up with plenty of room for progression and making direct impact for our customers.

We’re a diverse team of engineers and entrepreneurs, representing over 13 nationalities and all walks of life - even a few vegetarians! We are brought together by a shared passion for meaningful impact. Our culture is grounded in values we live every day:

• Empathetic Artisan - We approach our work with care, artistry, and genuine empathy for each other and our users. We lead with positivity and passion.
• Tenacious Innovator - Innovation drives us. We trust ourselves, keep learning, and uncover bold solutions that redefine what’s possible in poultry farming.
• Hand in Glove - One mission, one team. We grow together with patience, trust, and transparency, amplifying each other’s strengths to revolutionise farming.
• Worth Building - Worth celebrating. We dedicate ourselves to work that matters, taking pride in creating disruptive solutions our users can’t live without.
