Hybrid

What are you going to do?

We're building a smart, scalable pipeline that helps dairy farmers manage their operations through computer vision solutions. From edge devices deployed on-site to intelligent processing in the cloud, we turn raw sensor and camera data into insights, allowing farmers to run their farms efficiently and ensure animal wellbeing.

As a Data Engineer, you'll be right in the middle of it all: designing and building the data flows that power our solution, from capturing data at the edge, processing and storing it in the cloud, to making it accessible to the end user. You’ll work closely with ML/CV engineers to ensure data flows are efficient, resilient, and traceable. With your team, you’ll build Minimum Viable Products that are used by our customers.

Your responsibilities

• Design and build robust pipelines for real-time and batch processing across edge and cloud environments.
• Maintain reliable data flows from cameras and embedded sensors for training and inference.
• Collaborate with ML engineers to productionize models and deploy them on the edge.

Your team

As a Data Engineer, you will join our Expansion team, a dedicated team of market experts and technical specialists (Computer Vision, Data Engineering/Science) who create and validate fundamentally new concepts that complement our current solution portfolio. The team is defined by a fail-fast and validation-driven approach.
