About the role
Halter’s mobile app is unlike any other app! Not just because our farmers rely on it to manage their farms 24/7, but more so because it has a deep connection to the real world. Farmers can initiate a shift in the Halter app and only minutes later cows will be guided to the chosen destination. We're looking for an experienced product designer who is passionate about solving real-world problems with innovative and beautiful designs.
You'll be working in our Animal team where we focus on animal health, reproduction and virtual fencing. Halter doesn’t just save a farmer hours of work each day, but we enable farmers to increase the utilisation of their land, to accurately feed their animals, to have healthy and productive animals and to run more sustainable farms. We’re not just changing farmers’ lives, we’re changing an industry.
You’ll be working with a talented and motivated group of people, made up of farmers, engineers and everything in between. We strongly believe in a first principles approach to problems and love to ship product at pace with an iterative approach. We build features that truly move the needle for our farmers and their cows. We aim to understand our farmers and their needs better than they do and love to spend time on farm with our farmers in doing so. Our farmers love to work with us on product innovation and as a designer, you can be sure you’ll be chatting to our farmers heaps.
Our Office First Approach
There’s a reason you visit your friends in person, live with your family and don’t do dinners over Zoom. Humans are wired for connection. We believe a world-class, in-person office culture is the best way for high-performing teams.
Being office first is a core pillar of our culture. We believe in-person connections are key to driving your own growth, learning, impact, and building genuine long-lasting relationships. Strong relationships make it easier to disagree, give feedback, and do meaningful and aligned work. We don’t like having heaps of rules or policies, but this means having strong, trusted relationships is critical.
We’re office first, not office only. This means working from the office everyday is our default setting, but we flex when we need to. We have a high-trust culture, so everyone is trusted to do what’s best for Halter.
Our office vibe is something special, it’s hard to describe until you’re here, but people at Halter who have come from fully remote or hybrid companies say they could never go back - the high energy and spectacular people they are now surrounded by everyday makes work so enjoyable. Your growth, your learning and your impact is truly unlimited here, and a big part of that comes from being together solving problems, innovating, building context, and constantly learning from each other.
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. We’re backed to deliver on a mission that matters by Tier 1 investors including Bessemer Venture Partners, DCVC, Blackbird, Promus Ventures, Rocket Lab’s Peter Beck and Icehouse ventures.
