Senior Reliability Engineer
Halter, New Zealand
The role
We’re changing the way the world farms – and with that comes a responsibility to the producers worldwide who trust us with their animals. Halter collars aren’t serviced, aren’t repairable and need to last 6-10 years, anywhere across the globe. We can’t wait a decade to find out whether a design will survive - so we have to know before it ships. That’s the job of our Reliability team.
As a Reliability Engineer, you’ll be the person who turns “it needs to last” into evidence. You’ll own reliability for products and subsystems through development: assessing risk early, designing accelerated tests grounded in physics of failure, building the models that link hours in a chamber to years on a cow, and making a clear, evidence-backed call on whether a design is ready. You’ll close the loop with the field, comparing what fails out there with what our testing predicted, and changing our tests where they missed.
What you will do
- Own the reliability plan for a product or major subsystem through development - turning reliability goals into measurable requirements, test plans and acceptance criteria
