Description

Our Sci works with the Bionutrient Food Association to implement the Real Food Campaign. The goal of the RFC is to increase transparency of nutrient density in the food supply and ultimately support growers to improve the nutrient density of the food they produce.

A major portion of the RFC is a large-scale observational study, sampling soil and produce from the fields of 1000s of growers across the US and France to better understand the amount of variation in nutrient density and its causes (management, variety, climate, etc.). Now in its 4th year, the project needs additional project management and coordination capacity. We expect to collect samples from 150+ farmers (grower partners) as well as from large institutional partners who have large farm networks and from citizen scientists collecting data in stores and farmers markets.

This position will support all coordination activities (meetings, task lists, timelines) in support of onboarding Grower partners and help build relationships with Institutional partners. These activities are critical to the growth and success of the RFC.

Why we are differentWe are a small startup passionate about supporting community-driven science and we are building a fully open source future to provide that support. We also think that only through radical collaboration can we achieve our goals, that’s why we are active in the RFC, GOSH, GOAT and OpenTEAM communities. If you see part of your mission to shift the world towards transparency and ‘free as in freedom’ thinking around technology and data, we may be a good fit! As a supporter of communities, we also recognize the importance diversity plays in understanding and reflecting the needs of those we serve. We also all personally enjoy working with colleagues who have wide ranging life experiences and appreciate the opportunity that affords all of us to learn and grow. As such, we are committed to prioritizing diversity within our organization. Pay and LocationFull time. Rate commensurate with experience and background.

We are located in Ann Arbor MI, but applicants can work remotely with occasional visits (after initial visit + training, then once per year). US and International applicants all welcome!
