Senior Embedded Engineer

Who we are!

Levno develops a world leading on-farm monitoring platform that helps farmers and agribusinesses operate more efficiently, productively, and sustainably through real-time insights.

We design and build connected IoT devices that operate in challenging real world environments, delivering critical data and visibility to customers across New Zealand and beyond.

We are a high-growth technology company solving meaningful problems with a team that cares deeply about impact, ownership, and building great products together. At Levno, we value people who challenge the status quo, improve what exists, and bring others along with them. Our values are Win Together, Find a Better Way, Own the Outcome, and Enjoy the Ride.

Our scale is exciting with over 35,000 deployed IoT devices and steadily increasing demand for new product development has us on the hunt for an individual to join our hardware team focused on firmware engineering to build velocity.

The role will have variety; you’ll work on continuously improving the firmware for the deployed fleet while getting your hands dirty (sometimes real-world dirt, out on farm, with red bands on) figuring out how to connect the hardware to the cloud to solve farmers problems.

We pride ourselves on getting close to our customers, learning the problems they need solved, and solving them. As a result, we are the industry leader in monitoring the important infrastructure on dairy farms.

You’ll be part of our hardware team operating out of our purpose-built facility in Palmerston North.

• Experience solving difficult technical problems in production environments


• A pragmatic engineering mindset with strong commercial awareness


• Experience mentoring or uplifting other engineers around you

• Work on meaningful technical challenges across hardware, firmware, connectivity, and scale


• Be part of a high-performing, supportive engineering culture


• Have genuine influence on technical direction and engineering standards


• Join a growing New Zealand technology company with global ambition
