ABOUT HALTER
At Halter, we’re on a mission to enable farmers and graziers to run the most productive and sustainable operations. Our customers are using Halter to break free from the time-intensive constraints of conventional practices. Imagine watching 500 cattle stand up and walk calmly towards their next break? No quad bikes, no dogs, no fences. Just a group of cattle walking at their own pace. People say it looks like magic. Our customers are revolutionizing grazing with Halter. It's changing lives and transforming an industry. People join Halter to do meaningful work. By joining us you’ll be solving challenging problems within a talented team and a culture built for high performance. Our team out-think, out-work and out-care. We’re committed to delivering real change in the world - this isn’t easy, and in truth, we love that it’s hard.

ABOUT THE ROLE
Mechanical engineering at Halter is about to take off. We’ve just released our best collar yet, and in the next few years, we’re going to aggressively scale up production to support farmers and ranchers all over the world. Our hardware needs to last a very long time in an extremely harsh environment, and this needs to hold true for every collar we build (and we plan to build a lot of them).
There are very few applications in the field of mechanical engineering as unique and challenging as ours, which makes it the obvious next step in your career... With our recent series D fund-raise, Halter has reached elite status as a start up, and we’re just getting started. Our mission is to make global agriculture more sustainable and more profitable, and our hardware is a core piece of that mission.
With plenty of new markets to unlock, there will be no shortage of exciting mechanical projects, all of which require problem solving, critical thinking, and the ability to execute to a high standard. These projects will offer ample opportunity for up-skilling, leadership, mentorship and career development. At Halter, our teams are small and agile, which means you get to work on the most important projects, and contribute to the company's success, whatever your role may be.
For the next stage, we need talented, disciplined mechanical engineers who know how to develop hardware. And beyond that, the desire to innovate and create all that’s yet to come in our journey to revolutionize farming. Join the mechanical team and you’ll get to work on something truly world class for a world class tech company. You’d be crazy not to.
