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. Curious about how it works? Find out more here.

About the team

We're a close-knit team based across Oslo, Molde, and Trondheim. We value working together, in the office, out in the field with farmers and livestock, or at team offsites. We have a hybrid work culture.

We care deeply about product development, animal welfare, farmer welfare, and sustainable agriculture. We genuinely believe our grazing technology is the biggest technological change in agriculture since the tractor!

The Pasture team is currently 7 people, working on identifying opportunities and solving problems to help farmers get the most out of their land and pastures. We are fully cross-functional and operate on the full stack of our product: from the firmware that runs on the collars, the backend that processes the data, to the app that interfaces with the customers. This enables us to be fully autonomous and move fast to develop new features. You'll witness the immediate impact of your contributions in real-time!

The spirit of Nofence is collaborative and friendly, and we think that matters as much as what’s on your CV. Be part of a team that’s always looking forward, where your ideas and creativity are not only welcomed but also essential to our mutual success!

About the Application

Are you ready to change pasture? Just like the soil needs a balanced diversity of nutrients to thrive, a company needs a diversity of hearts and minds. We are an equal opportunity employer!

We will evaluate candidates continuously, we suggest you apply as soon as possible. If you have any questions about Nofence or regarding the application, please reach out to our engineering manager Morten at [email protected].
