    Job description

    As a Senior Python Software Engineer, you will design, build, operate, and scale the technical platforms, services, and tools that support the entire machine learning lifecycle. You will create the foundation for data collection, model training, deployment, and operations, working at the intersection of software engineering, data platforms, MLOps, and machine learning.

    The primary focus of this role is the development of production-ready software solutions, platforms, and workflows. Day-to-day responsibilities will mainly involve software development, architecture, automation, and system integration, rather than training machine learning models.

    Typical tasks span:

    Machine Learning Engineering

    • Build end-to-end ML training pipelines (ingestion, validation, transformation, training, evaluation)
    • Deploy, optimize and package models for inference
    • Support the platform team to serve models in cloud
    • Support the ai runtime team to serve models on edge/sorters
    • Participate in data and model centric research and innovation

    Data Management

    • Build, integrate and maintain secure data platforms (e.g., SQL/NoSQL warehouses, object storage, feature stores)
    • Ensure data security, privacy, and compliance

    Service & ML Tooling

    • Design and implement REST APIs to expose ML services and data platform functionality
    • Develop and maintain internal tools and web-based UIs that support ML workflows

    Software Engineering

    • Apply software engineering practices for version control, code reviews, and accurate technical documentation
    • Develop robust and maintainable code with unit, integration, and performance tests and knowledge transfer
    • Containerize components and implement CI/CD pipelines
    • Maintain and troubleshoot ML tooling in production
    • Close collaboration and alignment with our internal users

    We expect high ownership of assigned projects including stakeholder management, requirements engineering, project management and technical decisions.

    • Several years of proven professional experience delivering production ML systems with measurable impact
    • Expertise in Python
    • Expertise in computer vision and ML/DL tooling
    • Proficiency in MLOps: data modelling, packaging, containerization, CI/CD
    • Proficiency in data science for vision-based model optimization
    • Knowledge with (or willingness to learn) TypeScript, REST API development, and modern frontend frameworks (e.g., Vue.js, React)
    • Knowledge in cloud and on-prem platform and interfaces
    • Knowledge in model optimization frameworks (TensorRT, ONNX, CUDA, cuDNN) and edge deployment on hardware (x64, ARM/Jetson)

    What to Expect

    • Modern technologies and AI-driven systems
    • A hands-on engineering environment with direct impact on machine performance
    • Close collaboration with international teams
    • Informal culture with low hierarchies and short decision paths
    • Norwegian company culture with an open “you” mentality
    • Opportunity to actively shape future machine developments

    What We Offer

    • Hybrid working model
    • Flexible and international working environment
    • Modern office and testing facilities
    • Sustainable and future-oriented industry
    • Competitive salary package including bonus
    • Laptop and mobile phone
    • Long-term development opportunities within an international technology company

    If you enjoy solving complex technical challenges and want to see your software running on real industrial machines, we would love to hear from you.

    Does this sound like the right opportunity for you? 
    Please send your CV, a motivation letter and certifications.
