As a key player, you'll delve into understanding data processing and storage, as the vision systems churn out terabytes of data. You'll also collaborate with cross-functional teams within Northvolt, allowing you to explore further into machine learning deployments, computer vision, or databases. We're seeking someone enthusiastic about learning and driving the future of software in battery manufacturing. Expect to visit factories to gain firsthand insight into manufacturing processes and observe the machines in action.

Key responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Development of the web application used in the factory
• Data modelling and database performance
• Improving uptime and API performance
• Product and engineering trade-offs in order to support product development
