Who We Are
A R Malik Seeds Pvt. Ltd. is one of Bangladesh's pioneering private seed companies, founded in 1969 by Mr. A. R. Malik. For over five decades, we have supplied high-quality hybrid vegetable and potato seeds to farmers across every district of the country, working to make agriculture more productive, climate-resilient, and profitable for the people who depend on it.
Through our own Research & Development farm in Birganj, Dinajpur, and long-standing partnerships with globally renowned breeders such as Sakata Seed Corporation (Japan), BASF-Nunhems (Germany), and Agrico (Netherlands), we bring internationally proven seed technology to local farmers. As our operations, research, and farmer-outreach programs continue to grow, so does our need for a reliable, well-run IT backbone.
Your Role in Our Mission
As our IT Executive, you will be the hands-on custodian of the technology that keeps A R Malik Seeds running — from the network and servers to the laptops, CCTV, and email systems used every day by our teams in the office and in the field. You will be equally comfortable configuring a firewall, restoring a backup, or walking a colleague through a printer issue.
The way you maintain, secure, and troubleshoot our systems will directly shape how smoothly our research, marketing, and administrative teams operate — and, in turn, how well we can keep serving farmers across Bangladesh.
