Beschreibung

At Bayer we're visionaries, driven to solve the world's toughest challenges and striving for a world where ,Health for all, Hunger for none' is no longer a dream, but a real possibility. We're doing it with energy, curiosity and sheer dedication, always learning from unique perspectives of those around us, expanding our thinking, growing our capabilities and redefining 'impossible'. There are so many reasons to join us. If you're hungry to build a varied and meaningful career in a community of brilliant and diverse minds to make a real difference, there's only one choice.

Senior AI Scientist (M/F/d)
Hunger affects billions of people worldwide. Climate change threatens the livelihoods of entire regions. However, we see sustainable agriculture being part of
a solution to these challenges.

As part of our corporate purpose "Science for a better life," we develop digital solutions that provide required insights on field health to farmers.

Even more,

we combine these insights with tangible recommendations for agronomic actions that can be implemented. For example, we successfully launched digital
products that determine crop health, pest infestation, and weed pressure in fields using individual images.

Now, we are looking for bright and creative minds who want to be part of our journey. If you are interested in digital product engineering for crop protection;
topics such as software engineering, artificial intelligence, hardware engineering, robots, and drones interest you; and you want to see the success of your
work in tangible innovations, go ahead and apply

As a Senior AI Scientist (M/F/d) you develop new computer vision solutions that help farmers around the world to quantify and quality their weed-, disease,

and pest problems.
