Work with the embedded team on low power consumption. On a solar-powered device, every microamp counts
What we’re looking for
Bachelor’s or Master’s in Electrical Engineering or similar
Boards you have taken from schematic to working hardware, and a story about what went wrong on the way
Strong fundamentals: analogue, power and digital design, signal integrity, EMC basics, power optimisation
Confidence with oscilloscope, spectrum analyser, DMM and PCBA debugging and testing
Experience with a professional PCB CAD tool. We’re moving from Altium to KiCad.

About Nofence
Managing livestock has always been a challenge. Humanity has tried everything from herding with dogs to walling the animals in with barbed wire, electric, and wooden fences, but these are costly and time-consuming solutions and often in conflict with the local wildlife. It has also left vast areas of potential pasture overgrown and underutilized.
Until now.
Enter virtual fences. What started as a small group of farmers and engineers with a big idea has become Nofence - the world’s first virtual fencing solution for livestock.
