Clean Crop Technologies, Inc. (“Clean Crop”) stops crop loss at the source, removing pathogens from seeds before they are planted, increasing yields, reducing in-field waste, and improving food safety. Clean Crop’s Clean Current technology combines electricity and food-grade gases to create cold plasma, inactivating a broad spectrum of contaminants from seed surfaces in a dry, automated, and residue-free process. We are building a dynamic team of engineers and technicians, administrators, and scientists with a passion for innovation, experimentation, pushing the envelope of what's possible, and a hunger to work at an agile start-up. If that sounds like you, we'd love to talk!
