Job description

Requisition ID 1252 - Posted - Lystrup - Denmark - Full Time - Associate

AI is reshaping security and conflict at breakneck speed. Terma is developing AI at the edge of innovation across all domains to protect our society and enhance our resilience and fighting power. The world is growing more uncertain, the need for security is more present, and rarely has our purpose been clearer. Join us and help us turn AI into security for Denmark and our allies.

We are looking for (Senior) Data Scientists to join the Accelerator team. The Accelerator brings together AI specialists, software developers, drone and robotics experts, and business developers to turn emerging technologies into solutions for real operational needs. We work closely with Danish Defense and allied forces, involving end users from the very beginning and taking ideas quickly from concept to testing in the field.

Your role in our team

As our new (Senior) Data Scientist to the Accelerator team, you will work with vast amounts of untamed data, training deep learning models that push the boundaries of what is possible. As part of our team, you will play a crucial role in building and evaluating models, ensuring top-tier quality and generalization.

In close collaboration with our data and ML engineers you will have responsibilities in the building and maintenance of the data pipelines from data acquisition to producing predictions. This part of the job involves teamwork and understanding of the various interfaces from sensors to customer-facing UI to our own storage infrastructure. Furthermore, you will take ownership of data and AI modeling for specific, impactful projects.

We are a dynamic, fast-moving team dedicated to accelerating cutting-edge technology development. Our team brings together AI specialists, software developers, drone and robotics experts, and senior business developers turn emerging technologies into solutions for real operational needs. We are a diverse team in terms of nationalities, educational backgrounds and age, and our working language is English.

This is a team for people who like to make things happen. We value curiosity, initiative and strong bias for action. You will not just be behind a desk, you will be hands-on, whether it is climbing radar towers with a sensor in your backpack, spending days aboard a frigate gathering data, or launching newly designed drones in live military testing environments. We move quickly, learn by doing, and do whatever it takes to build technology that works in the real world.

How you will make a meaningful contribution

You will work in a dynamic, scalable environment, balancing speed and innovation with the highest security standards. Handling classified information and systems that matter, you will have a strong voice in maintaining military-grade security while driving development forward. Your key responsibilities include:

• Build and evaluate state-of-the-art deep learning and AI models
• Take ownership of data and AI modelling across key projects
• Develop models that solve complex, real-world challenges using sensors and other large-scale data
• Build and maintain end-to-end data pipelines from data acquisition to production-ready predictions
• Collaborate closely with data, ML and software engineers to integrate models into scalable and secure systems

Bring your world class expertise into play

For this role we expect you to hold a relevant degree in engineering, computer science or a related field, or equivalent work experience. That said, we are more impressed by your crazy, interesting and impressive hobby projects than perfect grades. Whether you are a recent graduate or bring a few years of experience, your skillset might include:

• Experience with deep learning and/or machine learning modelling in Python
• Experience implementing AI solutions end-to-end, from data collection to customer-facing features
• Experience working with sensor data, including parsing data and extracting relevant information
• Ability to evaluate AI approaches, including defining metrics and making well-founded design choices
• Ability to write production-ready AI code, for example data ingestion, APIs and Docker packaging
• A collaborative approach to developing code and AI solutions
• A fair understanding of statistics

As a person, you enjoy working in an environment where things move quickly and priorities can change. No two days are the same, and you are comfortable adapting when new challenges arise. You take responsibility for your work, but you are also not afraid to ask questions or involve others when needed. As the team grows and new projects emerge, there will be opportunities to take on responsibilities you have not had before, and that is something you find motivating. You work well with different people, share your knowledge, and contribute to a team where we help each other succeed.

We arean international company representing world-class expertise, delivering complex and high-tech products. We value our colleagues and our meaningful contributions to securing people through advanced technology. You will also experience that we have a strong focus on your development, teaching you useful new competences and further strengthening current ones, both professionally and personally.
