The posting

Bedrijfsomschrijving

At Lely, we believe in achieving a sustainable, profitable and agreeable future for dairy farmers by combining robotisation, engineering and farming expertise.

It all started with a dream cherished by two brothers in Maassluis 75 years ago, and ever since, we have worked to become innovative market leaders in automated systems for dairy farmers across the globe. With a team of over 2,800 professional specialists, we work constantly to bring about revolutionary solutions for the agro industry. We are based at our Maassluis Campus, a building which features the highest sustainability performance possible, not just in the Netherlands, but on a global scale. Our overall objective: making dairy farming interesting, also for the coming generations.

Vacatureomschrijving

At Lely, we develop smart robotics solutions that support and improve the daily work of dairy farmers. As a Junior Machine Vision Engineer, you will be part of the Computer Vision team and work on technology that quite literally forms the “eyes” of our robots.

Together with colleagues from computer vision, mechatronics, and animal science, you will develop solutions that enable robots to better understand their environment and respond accordingly. You will contribute to applications in the field of image recognition and algorithms, with the ultimate goal of improving the lives of both farmers and cows.

You will work in a small, close-knit team where collaboration, learning, and experimentation are key. From time to time, you will visit farms to see your work in practice and gather valuable feedback from the field.

Your main responsibilities:

  • Researching, designing, and implementing computer vision algorithms.
  • Working on image recognition applications using deep learning and neural networks.
  • Testing and validating algorithms in close collaboration with colleagues and in real-life environments.
  • Contributing to iterative improvements within an Agile/Scrum working environment.
  • Collaborating with specialists from different disciplines to develop robust and reliable solutions.

Functie-eisen

You are at the start of your career or have a few years of experience and are curious about how computer vision and AI are applied in real-world products. You enjoy learning, asking questions, and developing technology together with others.

You bring:

  • A completed bachelor’s or master’s degree in Computer Science, Informatics, or a comparable field.
  • A strong interest in computer vision, deep learning, and neural networks (for example through internships, projects, or a thesis).
  • Basic programming experience in C++ is a must, Python is a plus.
  • Familiarity with tools and frameworks such as OpenCV, PyTorch, or similar is a plus.
  • Affinity with Agile/Scrum ways of working.
  • Good command of the English language; Dutch is a plus or you are willing to learn.
  • A curious, collaborative mindset and the motivation to continue developing yourself.

Aanvullende informatie

Working at Lely means contributing to sustainable progress within one of the most innovative organizations in the Netherlands. You help make the agricultural sector future-proof. We make sure you have the space, resources, and support you need to grow and do your best work.

  • An international environment where collaboration, initiative, and diverse perspectives are valued
  • A culture that encourages learning, experimentation, and ownership of ideas.
  • Excellent working conditions, including up to 8 weeks of vacation per year and a good pension scheme.
  • A full-time salary range between €4,100 and €5,800 gross per month, with room for growth within the scale.
  • Control over your own development, with access to a wide range of courses through the Lely Academy
  • Daily access to excellent sports facilities on the Lely Campus: an indoor gym, outdoor padel courts, basketball and volleyball courts, table tennis, and table soccer. You can join Hyrox workouts or sign up for personal training - and challenge your colleagues during an active break.
  • Fresh coffee and tea from our own barista (with milk from our farm) and a healthy, affordable company restaurant

Work-life balance

  • A healthy work-life balance thanks to our hybrid work policy: you work at least three days a week on Campus, with flexible working hours and plenty of room to spend extra time on site (between 06:00 and 20:00).
  • A free shuttle bus will take you to and from the metro in Maassluis, so your workday starts and ends smoothly.
  • Moreover, we love to celebrate. Whether it's an anniversary or our Christmas party, at Lely, we know how to celebrate! For a feel of the atmosphere, check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WA3e0WHbxE

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
