Our mission is to help farmers work more efficiently, enjoyably, and sustainably. By further professionalizing the test automation of our vision- and AI-driven systems, you directly contribute to animal welfare, food quality, and the future of sustainable agriculture.

As a Vision Test Automation Engineer, you focus on validating and safeguarding computer vision functionalities within our robotic systems. You design and implement automatic system-level regression tests, using vision KPIs to reliably verify object detection and tracking in realistic, real-world scenarios.

You work closely with multidisciplinary Scrum teams within Product Development, including software engineers, computer vision specialists, test engineers, data scientists, and electronics engineers. Together, you ensure that vision pipelines and AI models perform consistently, robustly, and safely in production environments. We value diverse perspectives and encourage you to share ideas, ask questions, and contribute to the continuous improvement of our CI/CD pipelines.

Your main responsibilities:

  • Designing and implementing automated system-level regression tests based on vision KPIs for object detection and tracking.
  • Validating computer vision pipelines that use deep learning and AI models in real-life robotic environments.
  • Contributing to the training, verification, and performance evaluation of AI models used for vision applications.
  • Analyzing test results and vision metrics and translating them into clear feedback and improvement proposals for development teams.
  • Integrating and maintaining vision-based tests within CI/CD pipelines.
  • Actively contributing to the validation of new vision- and AI-driven features within Lely products.
