electricplant

The Electric Plant Co. builds a new category of plant and tree intelligence by combining IoT hardware with a foundation model named Bombadil. The hardware measures electrical signals in plants and trees alongside environmental data, while Bombadil decodes these signals into real-time insights regarding plant health, growth, and stress. The company operates at the intersection of biology, hardware, AI, and IoT, serving growers and clients who manage orchards and agricultural operations by turning physiological responses into actionable data.

The organization is building out its technical team with open roles based in San Francisco, specifically seeking an Applied AI Engineer for Agent Systems and a Senior Machine Learning Engineer. These positions are senior, individual-contributor roles that involve working within a small team environment rather than a large specialized organization. Team members report to engineering and AI leadership, driving projects from conception to production while establishing scalable systems, practices, and application layers that connect the foundation model directly to users.

The open roles indicate a focus on core technical capabilities, including transformer training, model architecture, data curation, evaluation, and the development of agent systems, client context layers, and actuation pipelines. Personnel collaborate closely across disciplines, spanning data infrastructure, foundation model ownership, and client deployments to ensure reliable execution of insights and policies.
