Job Description & How to Apply Below
This Territory Manager role at Halter represents a compelling opportunity for agri-tech sales professionals at a high-growth, well-funded startup (backed by Founders Fund and Bessemer Venture Partners). The company is in scale-up mode in the US, meaning early hires in territory roles often have disproportionate influence on sales processes and career trajectories.
Compensation context: The $140K–$165K OTE is competitive for a field sales role in agricultural technology. For comparison, typical agri-tech territory manager OTEs in the Midwest range from $110K–$150K, placing this at the upper end of market. The ESOP component adds meaningful upside if Halter exits or IPOs.
- Full-cycle field sales in a technical B2B environment (SaaS + hardware)
- Territory ownership and pipeline management at a fast-scaling startup
- Cross-functional collaboration with Product and Customer Success teams
- Deep domain expertise in precision agriculture — a rapidly growing vertical
Green flags: Immediate 401(k) vesting, 16 weeks parental leave, Unlimited PTO, and a genuine growth fund signal a people-first culture. The NZ onboarding trip shows investment in team cohesion.
Watch for: "High-growth sales targets" and "most challenging work of your life" language is common at startups — expect pressure and fast-changing priorities. The role blends sales and account management, which is rewarding but demanding. Best suited to self-starters who thrive without micromanagement and have genuine cattle/ranching credibility.

People say it looks like magic.
