ML Engineer – Computer Vision: Build smarter, safer care technology

Technology is changing what good care can look like.

Used well, technology can help care professionals identify risks earlier, respond faster and provide care that is better adapted to each individual. It can improve collaboration between colleagues, create greater continuity in everyday work and give care teams more time to focus on the people who need them.

Sensio is a leading European care technology company. Through our software platform Sensio 365, our nurse call solution, and our ‘hero-product’ the RoomMate AI multisensor, we help care providers deliver safer, more personalized and more efficient care. RoomMate is developed and manufactured in Norway, and it is probably the most widely deployed sensor of its kind across elderly care anywhere in the world.

With the backing of Nordic Capital, a leading European healthcare and healthtech investor, we are investing actively in product development and expanding the impact of our technology across international markets.

We’re looking for a Machine Learning Engineer

This role sits at the core of Sensio’s sensor-driven care technology, and is placed within our new AI team. You will work with machine learning models that run on embedded devices, close to the hardware, in products that need to perform reliably in real care environments.

Sensio’s technology uses advanced sensors, algorithms and embedded systems to support digital supervision and detect potentially dangerous situations.

Sensio’s technology generates a growing range of real-time signals, such as falls, noise and activity in a resident’s room. Other products and integrations contribute alarm data, events data and data from care environments both inside and outside of Sensio’s own ecosystem.

As a Machine Learning Engineer, you will work mainly on training and evaluating Computer vision models. The models will make the best possible use of the hardware available, balancing performance, precision, robustness, memory, power consumption and deployment constraints.

We are looking for someone who understands the full journey from data and training to validation, deployment, hardware performance and continuous improvement.

You will join a strong product and engineering environment where hardware, software, data and machine learning work closely together. Your work can directly affect the safety of residents, the working day of healthcare professionals and the future of care technology.

Your day-to-day

You will be an instrumental part of the team developing, improving and deploying machine learning models for Sensio’s sensor-driven care technology. Your daily work will include:

• Training, validating and improving computer vision models

• Optimizing models for embedded devices and resource-constrained hardware, including performance, memory use and power consumption

• Working with sensor data, including depth, time-of-flight or similar data sources, to improve model precision and robustness

• Exporting, testing and preparing models for deployment

• Building systems for continuous improvement, experiment tracking, model evaluation and feedback loops

• Collaborating closely with embedded, software, product and data science colleagues to ensure that models work reliably in real-world care environments

This is what we’re looking for

We are looking for a machine learning engineer with strong experience in computer vision and model development for embedded or resource-constrained environments. This is a senior role that requires strong technical depth and the ability to work independently with complex machine learning problems, whether that expertise comes from industry, research or a combination of both. If you’re the right candidate for the job, you probably have:

• A master’s degree or PhD in machine learning, computer science, robotics, signal processing or a related field

• Solid experience with computer vision

• Experience developing, training, validating and optimizing ML models for embedded devices or resource-constrained hardware

• Strong Python skills and experience with ML frameworks such as PyTorch

• Experience working close to hardware, preferrably with sensors, depth cameras, time-of-flight data, robotics, drones, automotive systems or similar

• Understanding of inference on edge hardware

This job does not require that your background is within care or healthcare technology, but you do need to understand what it means to build models that have to work reliably outside of a controlled lab environment.

Bonus points if you have experience with one or more of the following:

• Time-of-flight cameras, depth sensors, spectrum data or sensor fusion

• Embedded Linux, C++ or working closely with firmware or embedded software teams

• Model profiling, memory optimization or low-power ML deployment

• Hardware-in-the-loop testing, automated validation or continuous model evaluation

• MLOps, experiment tracking, dataset versioning or model lifecycle tools such as MLflow

• Safety-critical, privacy-sensitive or regulated products where reliability matters

At Sensio, the way you work is just as important as your technical background. We are looking for someone who is independent, curious and quality-conscious. Someone who can go deep technically but also collaborates well with people across disciplines. Someone who asks good questions, takes ownership and wants to build systems that improve over time.

What Sensio can offer

At Sensio, you get to work on technology with a clear purpose and a very real user need. RoomMate is not built for a slide deck, a demo room or a theoretical future. It is built for real care environments, with real people, alarms, staff shortages and real-life consequences for those who receive care, and those who provide it.

As a Machine Learning Engineer at Sensio, your work will help make sensor-driven care technology more precise, reliable and useful. Better models can mean better detection, fewer unnecessary interruptions, faster response and more confidence for the care teams using the technology every day.

This is the kind of machine learning where good engineering becomes more than good engineering. It becomes safety, dignity and more time for care.

What we can offer:

• A central role in building and shaping Sensio’s AI capabilities, which will have a real-life effect on the future of care technology

• The opportunity to build technology that supports healthcare professionals, residents, patients and next-of-kin

• A Norwegian product and technology environment with international ambitions

• A strong, cross-functional team working across hardware, software, product and design

• Room to take ownership, influence technical direction and grow professionally

This is a role for someone who wants the complexity of machine learning, the constraints of embedded technology and the meaning of working on products that matter in everyday life.

If you want to build models that leave the lab and help shape the future of care technology, we would like to hear from you.
