Joblaze insights
Quick facts
From the original posting
We're building something special at Halter, and we need the right people on the road to make it happen. As a Junior Field Technician, you'll be a core part of our Field Team, keeping our collar fleet moving across farms throughout your dedicated region. You’ll serve as a key connection between what happens on-farm and the engineering team back in Auckland, making sure collars get to the right farms, are tracked accurately, and come back to HQ when needed. You'll cover the length and breadth of the country, operating on a continuous farm visit loop. Expect to be on the move and spending up to 2–3 nights away from home per week.
This is a fixed-term role where attitude is everything and we are on the hunt for an upbeat go-getter.
Build your daily travel plan and use route optimisation tools to hit every farm efficiently
Hit the road, driving between farms
Manage collar stock on customer farms, making sure levels are accurate and nothing slips through the cracks
Pack and dispatch urgent spare collars to farms that need them fast
Ship collars back to AKL HQ and keep logistics running smoothly
Conduct hardware audits and trials on customer farms.
Be a positive, professional face of Halter when you're on-farm with our customers
Full clean NZ Class 1 driver's license, non-negotiable - you'll be clocking serious km's
On-farm experience (bonus points if you've worked with either beef or dairy cows)
A communicator who leaves farmers feeling good about Halter - your interactions matter!
Physically fit and up for the manual side of the work
Reliable, punctual, and someone who takes ownership, if you say you'll be there, you're there
A strong work ethic with a track record to back it up
Comfortable working independently on the road and as part of a team when back at base
This isn't a sit-at-a-desk role. You'll be out in the field, boots on the ground, driving between farms, working with farmers, and helping deliver one of the most exciting agricultural tech products in the world. It's hard work, but it's meaningful, and it's a genuine foot in the door at one of New Zealand's fastest-growing companies with massive plans for the future of agriculture worldwide.
Work that genuinely matters. Every now and again a company comes along that transforms an entire industry and leaves the world in a better place. Our team gets to be part of something truly meaningful, helping farmers improve their livelihoods, spend more time with their families, and build more sustainable operations.
