Careers at Meterra Systems
We build wireless water monitoring and automation for ranches, farms, and small water utilities. More than four years in the field. 2,000+ devices in service. A small team where the co-founders still answer the phone.
The job behind the hardware is simple to say and hard to do: give farming and ranching families their time back. Every sensor that texts a rancher instead of making him drive is an hour returned to a family that never had enough of them. If you want work you can drive past and point at, keep reading.
The whole company story is on the about page. The short version: we sell honestly in an industry that mostly quotes, and we back it with a 60-day money-back guarantee because the product survives being tried.
What the work looks like
We are a small company, and small means broad. The work in any given week: field installs, confirming cellular coverage for a site before anything ships, scoping custom automation for a specific ranch or treatment plant, talking directly with the people who run them, and building our own tools, including this website and the CRM behind it. You would see the whole machine, not one gear.
Some of what we make sits on a stock tank in a pasture. Some of it ties into a town's SCADA system. All of it has to work in weather, on batteries, far from the truck.
Who does well here
People who finish things. The evidence looks different for everyone: a degree in agricultural systems, an FFA or 4-H background, a pressure system you kept alive through a hard winter, a piece of software you shipped alone, a fence line you built that is still standing. If you grew up hauling water and fixing fence, you already understand the problem we work on better than most engineers do.
And you do not have to move to a city to build serious technology. We are based in Utah and work with ranches, farms, and small towns across the country. We are the proof.
Straight talk
This is a small company. That is the honest trade: no big-company brand on your resume, no layers to hide in, and the person who trains you is a co-founder with four years of field lessons and 2,000+ devices behind him. Your work ships to real customers and you hear directly what they think of it. Some people read that and feel tired. The people we want to hear from read it and lean in.
No opening posted? Write anyway.
There is no specific role posted right now. That is not a brush-off. We grow when the right person shows up, and we would rather hear from you before we need you than after.
Tell us what you have built, fixed, wired, or shipped. A degree counts. FFA counts. The well pump you rewired counts. What we care about is evidence that you finish things.
No form, no applicant tracking system. Write to both of us directly:
Britain@meterrasystems.com and Adam@meterrasystems.com
Put both addresses on the same email so neither of us can miss it. Include where you're based, what you have built or fixed, and a link if you have one: a portfolio, a LinkedIn, or a photo of the thing.
