Insights from the team

At Zenseact the Geometric Computer Vision Group is expanding and looking for a future star to join our teams! We work in small agile and autonomous teams and our tasks include detection of objects using geometric methods as well as estimation of the object free area around the car. Algorithm development and deployment is part of our daily work. This includes C++ programming of geometric computer vision methods to achieve high embedded performance both on CPU and GPU hardware, while following the latest trends in the industry.

We develop tests and metrics to evaluate the algorithm's status as well as tools for visualization and benchmarking. We test our algorithms in real-time directly in Zenseact’s vehicles, continuously integrating with other teams in the Vision area and the rest of Zenseact. The team focuses on sharing knowledge through collaboration and investigations of interesting new topics.

Join us in a warm and inclusive culture where you'll have the opportunity to work with highly talented professionals who share a common goal.

More about Zenseact

Our software makes a difference.
Using AI-based technology to create the ultimate driver support, we’re fighting to end car accidents and make roads safe for everyone. Every year, around 1,4 million people die in traffic while approximately 50 million people get injured. Many get disabled as a result of their injury. We can do better.

One purpose, one product.
We’re a software company dedicated to revolutionizing car safety. By designing the complete software stack for autonomous driving and advanced driver-assistance systems, we’re fighting to end car accidents and make roads safe for everyone. Zenseact was founded by Volvo Cars, and the teams are based in Gothenburg, Sweden, and Shanghai, China. When we aim for zero accidents faster, we strive to speed up the transition to safe automation. This is essentially achieved by making cars updatable – like a computer or a phone. With regular software updates, a vehicle can be made safer long after its production. By accelerating improvement loops, shortening development cycles, and deploying high-capacity software quickly, we can make cars safer, faster.

Culture with people at heart
To achieve our mission of saving lives and ending traffic accidents is to go where nobody has before. It requires us to venture into the unknown, pioneering new technology and pushing the frontier of autonomous driving. While there’s no denying our determination and expertise, we must stand united to succeed. By fostering a culture of support and enablement – a place of psychological safety where all of us can thrive – everything else will follow. We call this a people-at-heart culture. This culture means caring. It means the company cares about me, and we care about one another. It means sharing, so we give each other energy and have fun together. Our culture is also about belonging. It’s important to feel at home and that we can be ourselves at work. Finally, a people-at-heart culture means well-being. So, we enjoy the flexibility needed to be and do our best – at work and in life. 

Zenseact works proactively to create a culture of diversity and inclusion, where individual differences are appreciated and respected. To drive innovation we see diversity as an asset, which means we value and respect differences in gender, race, ethnicity, religion or other belief, disability, sexual orientation or age etc.
