Our portfolio includes trusted industry brands like Pioneer®, Brevant®, and Hoegemeyer®, delivering performance farmers rely on.

Join us to help scale innovation globally and shape what’s next in crop science.

Job Purpose:

Manage the global seed quality testing program for precommercial material in corn and multiple crops, ensuring the resulting data is structured, validated, and positioned to support analyses that drive product scoring, advancement decisions, and seed production risk profiles. Translate seed quality trait characterization, vigor, and stress emergence data into actionable advancement and risk-management recommendations. Serve as the organization's technical authority on seed quality assessment in corn and a technical contributor in additional crops, providing consultation to R&D, Production, Quality, and Commercial stakeholders in major global markets.

Duties and Responsibilities:

Global testing program & data stewardship (30%) – Direct precommercial seed quality testing across crops and locations; design experiments, ensure analysis-ready data, run BLUP analyses, and supply data to analytics partners.
Seed quality & vigor SME (20%) – Own corn stress-vigor assay methodology, guide global teams on vigor, storage, and emergence risk, and set advancement criteria and risk thresholds.
Trait characterization & product risk (20%) – Analyze parental seed quality data to flag high-risk germplasm, score traits, and make advancement recommendations.
Stress emergence field research (15%) – Plan, coordinate, and analyze multi-location field trials using precision ag, analytics, and imaging tools.
Root-cause investigations (5%) – Diagnose emergence, vigor, storage, and biotech trait-related quality issues and recommend mitigation.
Technical communication & training (5%) – Present at forums and conferences and build seed quality capability across regions and functions.
People leadership (5%) – Supervise one direct report and interns, mentor talent, and support budget planning.

Problem Solving:

Sustains progress on long-cycle research and strategic initiatives while owning a cyclical global testing program with fixed deadlines and serving as the organization's on-demand technical resource for urgent seed quality and product performance issues.
Innovatively seeks and assimilates relevant data from multiple sources - research and non-research - and from diverse global stakeholders, frequently making defensible recommendations.

Decision Making:

Determines experimental and data structures for the global precommercial seed quality testing program, directly governing whether downstream analyses are valid and whether advancement decisions rest on sound data.
Sets and defends advancement criteria and risk thresholds that directly influence commercialization decisions, seed production risk profiles, and inventory risk exposure.

Required Qualifications:

Master's degree in Agronomy, Crop or Seed Science, Plant Breeding, Agricultural Research, or a related technical field, with 5+ years of relevant industry or research experience
Demonstrated success planning and managing agronomic or scientific research programs
Working knowledge of mixed-model analysis and the experimental design principles that support it
Experience managing research data pipelines - experiment setup, data loading, and quality control in enterprise research data systems
Demonstrated statistical and data analysis skills, including interpretation of multi-year datasets; proficiency in R or equivalent
Experience designing field research trials and interpreting field data
Excellent oral and written communication across diverse audiences and circumstances
Results-driven, with demonstrated capacity to influence within a matrixed organization and across functions
Strong people, organizational, and project prioritization skills
Strong record of innovation and applying new technology

Preferred Qualifications:

Advanced training or demonstrated depth in seed physiology, crop physiology, or seed science
Direct experience in seed quality, seed vigor assessment, or seed physiology
Experience across multiple crops - corn plus soybean, sunflower, canola, or sorghum
Experience scripting automation for data submission or processing workflows (R, Python, or equivalent)
Experience partnering with data science or predictive modeling teams as a data and domain resource
Familiarity with marker-trait association and genome-wide association methods
Experience building dashboards or decision-support tools

Benefits – How We’ll Support You:

Be part of a company with a higher purpose and contribute to making the world a better place
Health benefits for you and your family on your first day of employment
Four weeks of paid time off and two weeks of well-being pay per year, plus paid holidays
