Hiring: Agronomist – Controlled Environment Agriculture (Polyhouse)
Christ College, Bangalore
If you have ever wanted to be part of a project that rewrites the rules of modern farming — this is your moment.
Christ College, Bangalore has built a 720 sq. m next-generation, data-driven polyhouse that is not just a growing space…
It is a living laboratory, a **prototype for India’s future food systems, and a ground where we attempt what **no institutional greenhouse in India has dared to attempt.
We are now inviting applications for a Full-Time Agronomist who is not looking for just another job…
…but wants to make history in India’s Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) landscape.
Before Engineering, We Listen to Nature
Our philosophy is simple:
You cannot engineer what you do not first understand.
We believe that every successful CEA system begins not with technology, but with deep observation and respect for Mother Nature:
* How plants breathe
* How they respond to light, heat, humidity, and CO₂
* How water moves through a substrate
* How roots signal stress long before leaves do
* How microclimate and biology speak a language we must learn before we design solutions
Only when we honour Nature’s laws… do we apply engineering to amplify, not replace, her intelligence.
This is the heart of our project — a balance of nature’s wisdom and scientific precision.
Why this role is different?
Most greenhouses grow crops.
We measure, decode, and engineer outcomes while staying deeply aligned with natural plant behaviour.
Here, you will work with:
* Temperature, humidity, and VPD as nature’s communication signals
* PAR & PPFD not just as numbers, but as the plant’s language of energy
* EC, drain EC, and substrate behaviour as windows into root health
* CO₂ as a driver of controlled photosynthesis
* Multi-fertigation systems tuned to the biology of each crop
You will join a rare ecosystem that approaches farming with scientific rigour AND ecological sensitivity.
## What You Will Lead
* Design and execute crop trials rooted in natural plant behaviour
* Track and analyse key environmental and biological parameters (Temp, RH, PAR, PPFD, EC, Drain EC, CO₂, substrate EC)
* Build intelligent multi-fertigation strategies based on real crop signals
* Mentor students in both scientific methods and ecological understanding
* Convert daily observations into research insights and academic contributions
* Innovate in hydroponics, climate control, and sustainable precision cultivation
Who We’re Looking For candidates
* 2–3+ years of practical greenhouse / CEA experience
* Strong understanding of measuring & interpreting environmental parameters
* Experience with multi-fertigation systems and nutrient modelling
* Curiosity to understand plants as living organisms, not industrial outputs
* Ability to connect nature + data + engineering
* A desire to contribute to something long-term, meaningful, and pioneering
This role is ideal for someone who believes that *Mother Nature is the first teacher, engineering is the second, and great agriculture happens at their intersection.
Join a Journey No One Has Taken in This Industry
We aren’t repeating what others have done — we’re building new pathways.
Most people follow templates.
*We build them
With respect for nature’s laws and the precision of science.
If you want to be part of a breakthrough project that blends ecology, engineering, and innovation to redefine the future of CEA in India — we’d love to meet you.
