Opportunity Expired
At Halter, we're unlocking the connection between humans and animals, starting with cows and then expanding to other animals. Driven to revolutionise farming, our world-first technology helps farmers break free from the time-intensive constraints of conventional farming and empowers a more sustainable future for farmers, their cows and our land. Halter is giving farmers the freedom to spend more time with their families, the technology to increase production and meet the growing demand for food and the data to help them care for their cows, which we know is paramount for farmers.
Founded in 2016, Halter has developed a revolutionary farm management system. We fit our solar-powered GPS-enabled smart collars to each dairy cow. We then equip farmers with a simple App for managing their cows. This system enables farmers to remotely shift, virtually fence and proactively monitor their cow’s health, feed and behaviour - all through their phone. Scaling rapidly onto farms across New Zealand, we have the privilege of working alongside exceptional farmers including some of the largest farms in the country. We care deeply for our farmers and their cows, with our customers heavily involved in product development and animal welfare core to our culture.
Our work is turning heads. In 2021, Halter won in two categories at the NZ Hi-Tech Awards and this year, we have been nominated for another two. Our Board comprises tier 1 Silicon Valley investors who have backed the world's best technology companies such as SpaceX, Tesla, Airbnb and Spotify. We’re also fortunate to have Rocket Lab CEO, Peter Beck, as an investor and Board member. We hire the world's best people and provide an epic environment for them to thrive in. Our culture is distinctive; we care about high performance, about each other, and we're obsessed with making a difference for our customers.
We are looking for someone hungry to make an impact on the world to help us extract and communicate insights from the world’s biggest cow behaviour dataset.
We want to talk to people from all backgrounds who can continue to make our team greater than the sum of its parts. We’re looking for people who are comfortable working in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where they will be challenged on a daily basis. To succeed you will need to be able to learn quickly and use your own initiative while working under pressure and to tight deadlines. We embrace learning, we strive to help each other succeed, and will help you make this the best job you’ll ever have.
This internship will run from the 15th of November 2022 through to the 25th of February 2023. It will be full-time 40 hours a week over this time period.
