Full Job Description

Position Title: Commercial Potato Breeder

Location: Watsonville, CA with 25-50% travel

Type: Full-time

Opportunity:
Ohalo is seeking a Commercial Potato Breeder to lead the advancement of potato varieties from late-stage development through commercial readiness. This role sits at the intersection of breeding, agronomy, and commercial execution, ensuring new varieties perform consistently across environments and meet the needs of growers, processors, and partners. This person works closely to align our product direction and production efforts with the needs and successful results of our growers.

The ideal candidate combines strong technical expertise in potato variety development with a practical, field-oriented mindset and the ability to collaborate closely with internal R&D teams and external stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities

Lead late-stage variety development activities for potato programs, including multi-location field trials and pre-commercial evaluations that align with the Ohalo commercial go-to-market strategy.
Design, execute, and analyze regional and on-farm trials to validate performance, stability, and agronomic fit.
Serve as the technical bridge between R&D, product, and commercial teams, translating data into clear deliverables.
Own the product registration & UPOV process in a global landscape.
Partner with growers, processors, and other external collaborators to support trial execution and feedback to support and drive commercial sales and vision.
- Collect, synthesize, and communicate trial results to internal stakeholders in a clear, actionable way.
Evaluate varieties against commercial benchmarks (yield, quality, disease resistance, storage, processing traits, etc.).
Provide technical input into variety positioning, launch planning, and market segmentation as it aligns with our commercial organization.
Support continuous improvement of Ohalo's variety development and evaluation processes.

Qualifications

Master's degree or higher in Agronomy, Plant Science, Horticulture, Crop Science, or a related field.
5+ years of direct experience in potato variety development, agronomy, or commercial seed systems.
Hands-on experience designing and managing field trials across multiple environments.
Familiarity with production-scale constraints and process control (sampling plans, SOP validation, QC thresholds).
Strong understanding of potato production systems, grower needs, and commercial success factors.
Excellent communication skills. Ability to interpret agronomic and performance data and translate it into commercial insights.
Comfortable working in a fast-moving, fluid, collaborative, and innovative environment.
Willingness to travel as needed to trial sites and partner locations. Travel amount will vary depending on activities for the timing of the year i.e. planting, harvesting, etc. (10%-50%).
Highly motivated with a strong drive to meet company objectives.
Comfortable utilizing technological advancements, including AI and similar methodologies, to drive continuous improvement in alignment with company strategy.
Innovative, proactive, and strategic thinker with a confident and humble approach to collaboration and problem-solving.

Preferred Experience

Direct experience supporting commercial launches of new potato varieties.
Familiarity with seed multiplication systems and grower adoption dynamics, in particular relating to the potato industry.
Experience working with processors &/or fresh market channels.
Exposure to advanced breeding technologies or biotech-enabled crop development.
