Sustainability

Living Roots is an emerging regenerative agriculture company based in Thailand. We design and manufacture high-performance, biological and mineral-based fertilizers using AI, fermentation, and soil biology. Our mission: help farmers grow more with less, restore their soils, and create a resilient agricultural future across Asia.
The Role: Trials Manager
We're looking for a bold and passionate Trials Manager to design, execute, and scale our product trials across Thailand and Southeast Asia. This is not just agronomy-as-usual. It’s a chance to build the scientific foundation for a regenerative revolution — from rice and sugarcane to durian and beyond.
You'll lead our product testing work across farms, coordinating with dozens of growers, research partners, and internal product teams. You’ll need grit, scientific rigor, and the adaptability of a startup operator.
This role is ideal for someone who is equally at home in muddy boots and structured datasets — who can engage with farmers, run fieldwork, and also distill insights that shape our products and strategy.
You will be working with our AI tool, Hypha, to help make recommendations on fertilizer use, and helping farmers transition towards regenerative agriculture.
<h2>Tasks</h2>
<ul>
<li>Design &amp; Lead Field Trials: Plan and execute scientifically valid, crop-specific trials to evaluate Living Roots BioNutrient products.</li>
<li>Work with Farmers &amp; Partners: Build deep relationships with growers across rice, sugarcane, durian, and a range of horticultural and field crops.</li>
<li>Travel Extensively: From Isaan to Chiang Mai to Malaysia — you’ll go where the crops grow.</li>
<li>Analyze and Report: Collect field data, track yield &amp; plant health outcomes, and generate actionable learnings.</li>
<li>Collaborate Across Teams: Interface with product R&amp;D, microbial production, and AI teams to translate trial results into product evolution.</li>
<li>Grow the Trials Program: Build trial protocols, documentation, and processes that scale with our ambitions.</li>
<li>Live Regeneration: Model curiosity, care for the soil, and systems thinking in everything you do — from how you build partnerships to how you design experiments.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Requirements</h2>
<ul>
<li>3+ years agronomic or crop science experience (on-farm, in trials, or related R&amp;D roles)</li>
<li>Strong communication skills in both Thai and English (you’ll be working with Thai growers daily) </li>
<li>Strong knowledge of tropical crops, especially rice, sugarcane, durian, and you'll be working across dozens of crops</li>
<li>Field-ready: Comfortable in varied environments, from conventional farms to remote organic systems</li>
<li>Proven ability to run structured trials and interpret results</li>
<li>A regenerative mindset: Interested in soil health, microbial interactions, and systems change</li>
<li>Willingness to travel across Thailand and Southeast Asia</li>
<li>Comfortable working in a fast-paced, early-stage environment</li>
<li>Bonus: Background in regenerative, organic, or biological agriculture</li>
</ul>
<h2>Benefits</h2>
Why Join Us
<ul>
<li>Shape the frontier of regenerative agriculture in Asia</li>
<li>Work with an ambitious, purpose-driven team</li>
<li>Join a company where science, nature, and human potential meet</li>
<li>Have your work directly impact farmer livelihoods and ecological health</li>
<li>Equity package at a fast growing startup in Southeast Asia</li>
</ul>
Who You Are
<ul>
<li>A builder who wants to co-create the future of agriculture</li>
<li>A listener and learner — with growers, with data, and with nature</li>
<li>Not afraid to get your hands dirty or question industry dogma</li>
<li>You’ve likely read something by Gabe Brown, John Kempf, or Carol Sanford and thought, “yes — that’s the direction I want to go”</li>
</ul>
