About the job
Company Background
BovControl is a late-stage startup whose purpose is to digitize livestock information worldwide, re-organizing the livestock value-chain to eradicate hunger and to drive climate neutrality, feeding 1B people/day and offsetting 50M tons of carbon per year until 2025.
We started our journey by providing a management tool for the rancher and today we help the whole livestock chain. We believe that by digitizing processes across all livestock nodes, we empower the entire livestock supply chain.
Through our tool, we can develop applications that solve herd management, cattle supplier management, traceability, increase the effectiveness of health inspection and slaughter processes. BovControl also has a strong focus on the socio-environmental impact of livestock on the planet. We are developing features for measuring greenhouse gas emissions by animals, as well as water management tools for the activity. All this to help the producer to be more efficient and contribute to the preservation of our planet.
