It was less than 3 years ago that Sofie started to do her master thesis at Verisure, in that time studying engineering mathematics at Lund University. “A friend in R&D at Verisure recommended me to talk to his manager. I was interested in machine learning and programming and did not know that Verisure has such a focus on R&D and IT. But it appeared to be the perfect match!”

“If I look back at the person I was 3 years ago, I already feel like a senior. I was able to create my own position, and now I am even leading a team of people specialized in machine learning! I feel proud to be part of the team that designed the burglary detection algorithm of our GuardVision Indoor camera. The algorithm is protecting many of our customers.”

Being Curious And Willing To Learn

Being curious and willing to learn is what people working in Technology at Verisure have in common. “Verisure is a very open and innovative company. If you want to learn something new, colleagues are open to help you wherever they can. This place is the perfect match for everyone who wants to take responsibility for his or her own development.”
