At Voltrac, we are on a mission to strengthen Europe’s food security and defence with an autonomous electric tractor to free farmers from drudgery and keep soldiers out of harm’s way. The 3.5 tonnes platform is currently being tested at vineyards, olive orchards and citrus groves across Spain - check out our website to see it in action. We are about to scale manufacturing to 100 units yearly, and are looking to match the sales accordingly.
Thomas used to accelerate Machine Learning using GPUs, TPUs, and Quantum Computers at Google X, IBM and BMW, as well as started San Francisco-based Extropic introducing Thermodynamic computers, but also had his first job at a farm.
Together, they set their sights on shaking up the market, competing directly with incumbents and startups alike. With this, they were able to open up shop in a 1200 m² facility in Valencia, with 300 m² of natural‑light office and a 900 m² workshop. The team is young, comes from different backgrounds, and loves to have team bbqs, but share one aim: shape Europe’s agriculture and defence with machines that do real work.




You can assume the control system is up and running, a tele-ops system can supervise, and an advanced sense-and-stop will dynamically prevent you from driving into things. Your task is to build the core autonomy algorithm, from the current GPS waypoint through A*-like algorithms towards transformer based approaches or whatever you deem to be the state of the art.
Select, train, and iterate on algorithms and machine learning models for autonomy.
Design and run testing campaigns, both in virtual environments and out in the vineyards, olive orchards, and citrus groves.
Define and implement verification and safety criteria
Work on data ingestion, if fitting your skill sets
If you have deep experience in only part of this stack, we are open to shaping the role or splitting it across autonomy engineering, data engineering, and / or cloud. Strong, hands-on coding ability and solid software engine
