Toronto, Canada Vivid Machines Full time

**Bring the Future to Fruit Farming.**

Vivid Machines is an innovative venture back-ed start-up that helps fruit farmers produce more food and less waste with our proprietary sensor and computer vision system. We are extremely passionate about supporting growers with the tools they need, as we continue pursuing our dream of taking farming to new heights.

We are searching for a friendly and highly analytical Technical Support Specialist to join our Customer Success team. In this role, you will answer customer queries and resolve issues via appropriate channels, maintain knowledge of our products and services, obtain customer feedback, and provide training to new hires.

**Why our teammates love working here**

You can’t build out the future of fruit farming without getting your hands on the latest and greatest computer vision and AI technology. At Vivid Machines, you are embarking on a journey that will evolve an entire industry, and our drive to make this vision a reality is unstoppable. Vivid Machines began transforming AgTech in rural Ontario and is now expanding its reach to farmers in the US, Chile, and New Zealand.

You collaborate with great minds in the pursuit of excellence.

The only thing greater than the innovative products at Vivid Machines is its people. You are an expert in your trade, alongside your team. Vivid Machines employees are born leaders fueled by passion and the desire to help change the world for the better. While you will enjoy the occasional good escape room, farm retreat or Wordle challenge, it’s the clarity of your purpose that brings you closer to your colleagues.

You share daring ideas that will become state-of-the-art products.

Vivid Machines combines the speed of a scrappy start-up with the level of knowledge you’d only find in a corporate C-Suite. Here, you are free to bring new and bold ideas to the table. You can experiment and iterate to perfection without having to worry about being bogged down by pending approvals, pointless meetings, or slow turnaround times. You are here because you are motivated, curious, and therefore trusted to help create a product that goes on to make agricultural history.
