Imagine taking one of the world’s most advanced ag-tech platforms… and levelling it up with cutting-edge AI that actually solves real-world problems (not just chatbot hype). This role is for someone who loves building -someone obsessed with using AI in practical, high-impact ways: smarter workflows, RAG-powered knowledge systems, intelligent automation, and new capabilities across our customer, launch, and internal tools.
You’ll sit at the heart of a rapidly growing AI ecosystem at Halter, working with our Customer AI, Support, Data, and Engineering teams to prototype, ship, and scale AI features that directly help our support and commercial teams. If you get excited about architecting AI systems end-to-end… wrangling embeddings… deploying scalable services… and experimenting with new models and AI frameworks, this is your playground.
You'll be great if you bring
- Strong experience working with modern AI tooling (OpenAI, Anthropic, Perplexity, Pinecone, Chroma, etc.)
- Hands-on experience designing or implementing RAG architectures, including embeddings, chunking strategies, vector databases, retrieval pipelines, and evaluation.
- Solid software engineering skills : ideally in Python and/or TypeScript.
- Ability to take fuzzy problems, experiment rapidly, and turn them into shippable solutions
- Understanding of AI system design: prompt engineering, orchestration, agents, evaluation, vector search, context building.
- Experience integrating AI into internal workflows.
- Collaborative energy: you enjoy working tightly with cross functional teams.
Bonus if you can bring
- Experience with LangChain, LlamaIndex, Haystack, or other AI frameworks
- Experience building agentic systems or workflow orchestration (n8n, Airflow, Temporal, etc.)
- Exposure to fine-tuning, model evaluation, and prompt-ops
- Experience with data pipelines, ETL, or data engineering
- Comfort working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments (you actually enjoy it)
What you'll do
- Build AI-powered support tools, and internal systems across Halter.
- Design and implement RAG pipelines powering customer-facing support agents
- Designing Sales coach agents to help our sales and commercials team scale
- Write high-quality, maintainable code. from early prototypes to production services.
- Evaluate, test, and benchmark new models, LLMs, embeddings, frameworks, and architectures.
- Develop internal AI tools for knowledge retrieval, summarisation, automation, and operational intelligence.
- Own end-to-end delivery of certain AI features: scoping, prototyping, testing, deploying, iterating.
- Contribute to Halter’s Customer AI strategy and help define best practices for evaluation, reliability, hallucination-reduction, and system design.

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.
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.
