At eShepherd, we're redefining livestock management with industry-leading virtual fencing technology. Combining IoT, software, electronics and animal science, our solutions are helping farmers improve productivity, sustainability and animal welfare across the globe.
We're looking for a technically minded, hands-on Equipment Diagnostic Technician who enjoys solving problems, working with innovative technology and delivering outstanding customer outcomes. If you take pride in finding the root cause, repairing equipment, and continuously improving processes, we'd like to hear from you.
About eShepherd | Join the revolution in livestock management.
eShepherd is Gallagher’s boldest venture yet - a tech-forward agritech start-up backed by 85+ years of global innovation. We’re office-first, progress-over-perfection, and unapologetically hands-on. Our team builds world-first virtual fencing tech that’s reshaping agriculture for good. If you thrive on innovation, get things done, and want to be part of a global brand with startup energy, we want to hear from you.
The Product
At Gallagher, we don’t just imagine the future - we build it.
eShepherd™ is our breakthrough virtual fencing technology, enabling farmers to monitor, move, and manage cattle from anywhere.
Using GPS-enabled neckbands, powered by solar, farmers can create digital fence lines from their phone, transforming how land is used, reducing labour, and improving both environmental and animal welfare outcomes.
This is innovation with real-world impact - on pasture health, productivity, and profitability.
