.NET Developer

In this role, you will contribute to the introduction of Vision technology by expanding the platform with smart, scalable solutions that help farmers monitor cows via video. In-house developed edge devices receive and process raw sensor and video data, which is then processed in the cloud to generate actionable insights for farmers and farm visitors.

You will develop various new .NET applications that together form the pipeline for converting raw sensor data into actionable insights, and implement the algorithms developed by the Computer Vision Expert in your team.

Tech stack

The tech stack is used partly for edge devices and partly for the cloud. The teams are at the forefront of adopting new technologies. In the cloud, it is not unusual for the first systems to be updated immediately on the day a new .NET version is released. The edge devices run a slimmed-down version of Linux, where the apps you develop are hosted in a container. The cloud platform is hosted across multiple Azure regions, utilising a wide range of services. Software roll-out has been automated both at the edge and in the cloud. The platform already processes millions of incoming messages daily, and the ambition is to see this grow exponentially in the coming years.

What are you going to do?

Development

• Develop scalable and maintainable software components for edge and cloud environments, with a focus on performance and reliability.

Test automation

• Everything you build is accompanied by automated tests.

Application monitoring

• You ensure you have a clear understanding of what your application is doing and continuously improve it through ongoing insights.

Your team

You will be part of the “Vision Insights” team. The Innovation team has developed a new technology, which you will take to the next stage in collaboration with your team and other teams. Your team consists of a Product Owner, a Computer Vision expert, two Software Engineers and a Data Engineer. The “Vision Insights” team is a multidisciplinary team focused on further developing computer vision algorithms, building and maintaining software applications, processing and managing data systems, and ensuring the quality and reliability of the system.

You will collaborate closely with the Computer Vision Expert within the team, but will also be in frequent dialogue with other teams and disciplines within R&D. The teams focus on software for both dairy farmers and global business partners. The teams are multidisciplinary and work according to an Agile way of working. There is a continuous stream of new features based on insights and customer feedback.
