Business Outlook
Pros
Super-talented and friendly crew, team/interdisciplinary culture, sustainability mission (feed the world!), Scala/functional programming + AWS, Bayesian statistics (we are building "learning systems" using this path to AI/ML), fast-growing startup but still early enough that you get to shape the company's future. Serious commitment to training: Lunch and Learn sessions twice/week cover topics ranging from Advanced Scala to seed germination to Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulations. CiBO also does in-house training (Scala, Stan) and sends people to conferences.
Cons
Distribution of staff across multiple locations makes for communication challenges. Creativity sometimes comes with a bit of chaos.
