Maassluis, Netherlands
Posted on Feb 4, 2026

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.
