The role

As a Computer Specialist, you will support the design, development and maintenance of data‑driven frameworks and digital tools that integrate sensors, IoT devices, and growth chamber hardware to optimize controlled environment agriculture. You will enable automated monitoring, decision-making, and responsive feedback control systems to improve crop productivity, resource efficiency, and sustainability. Through innovation in software engineering, data analytics, and automation technologies, you are intended to advance intelligent agricultural systems for next-generation crop production environments.

Working collaboratively with NRC researchers, engineers, and external partners, you will help establish NRC as a global leader in digital agriculture and controlled environment research.

Key Responsibilities:

Development of Indoor Smart Farming Frameworks: Designs, develops, and maintains computational frameworks, digital platforms, and software systems that enable indoor smart farming and precision agriculture, ensuring alignment with NRC research objectives and client needs.
Data Management and Integration: Establishes and maintains robust systems for the acquisition, transfer, processing, and integration of indoor agricultural data from multiple sources (e.g., sensors, IoT devices, imaging devices, growth chambers, crop metrics) to support data-driven decision-making and predictive analytics.
Technical Support and Troubleshooting: Provides specialized technical support and problem-solving expertise to researchers, engineers, and partners on computing infrastructure, monitoring systems, data pipelines, and analytical tools used in agricultural crop research and development.
System Optimization and Performance Monitoring: Evaluates and optimizes computing environments and digital agriculture platforms to ensure efficient data flow, security, and system performance across NRC and partner networks.
Compliance and Data Governance: Ensures that all data handling, storage, and transfer practices comply with NRC’s data governance standards, cybersecurity policies, and relevant legislative frameworks.
System Integration and Interoperability: Develops and implements solutions for integrating indoor smart farming applications with existing hardware and software systems using APIs, communication protocols, and interoperability standards. Ensures seamless data exchange between growth chamber devices, cloud-based tools, and research platforms.
Documentation and Reporting: Prepares clear technical documentation, system specifications, and project reports to support reproducibility, transparency, and effective knowledge sharing within the research team and across NRC.

Innovation and Continuous Improvement: Identifies opportunities for technological innovation and improvement in smart farming systems, recommending and implementing solutions that enhance research capabilities and outcomes
