We're looking for a Mapping Specialist to join our Guidance Operations team. This is a great role for someone who's passionate about ag, can quickly grasp complex technical concepts, and thrives on getting the details right. Please note that this role is based in Morrinsville. Please attach a Cover Letter with your application. About the role Every Halter farm runs on its digital map. Using drone or satellite imagery, we map all the infrastructure that matters: fences, gates, troughs and the cowshed. From there we know where every paddock and laneway sits, so we can build a digital version of the whole farm. The system uses that map to fence and shift cattle, so the more accurately it matches the real farm, the more accurately animals get guided. With over 1,000,000 collars deployed across hundreds of farms and ranches, the edits to these maps never stop. Farmers are always changing infrastructure on the ground, and there's the odd thing that got missed in the initial mapping too. Farmers reach out through our in-app chat asking for their farm map to be updated. That might mean moving a fenceline they've shifted, repositioning troughs and gates, or adding new infrastructure like a feedpad or barn. Your job is to action those edits accurately so the map keeps matching the real farm. You'll work closely with the support team, keeping them up to date on progress so they can keep farmers informed. Sometimes you'll jump on a call with a farmer directly to work through an edit, and you'll lean on support to chase up more information from farmers when you need it. You'll spend most of your days on the R&D farm near Morrinsville. We turned the old calf barn into an office with prime views of our farm. Once or twice a fortnight you'll head up to our HQ in Auckland to work alongside our support team and you'll partner closely with our guidance engineering team so you understand the product at its core, which means you make the right calls when actioning edits. What we're looking for - You obsess over the details. Even as the workload grows, your eye for detail never slips and your standards stay high. You notice when something's a few metres off, and you care enough to fix it rather than let the small things slide.
