Overview

AutoStore has revolutionized warehouse automation—and AutoStore Router is at the heart of that transformation. Now we’re looking for someone to help drive the next wave of innovation in Router.

Router is the brain of AutoStore, orchestrating robot traffic and task planning for thousands of robots in near real-time. If you love optimization, you’ll thrive here: we continuously work to improve robot utilization and algorithm performance.

Enjoy tackling complex challenges? We solve NP-hard problems and develop solutions that push us closer to optimality. Our work spans both research and development, and every percentage of improvement delivers measurable value to our customers and strengthens AutoStore’s competitive edge.

We’ve built a robust CI system that lets you test new ideas quickly and see if they’re ready for production. With a touch of gamification, exploring new concepts becomes fun—you’ll even know if your idea sets a new “high score.”

Passionate about machine learning? It’s becoming increasingly important for smarter decision‑making in Router, and you’ll have the chance to shape that future.

Your mission: drive continuous improvements in performance and traffic flow across increasingly large and complex AutoStore systems, and ensure effective support and optimization of new hardware and software modules within and around AutoStore.

• Ability to translate theoretical research into practical solutions.
• Skills in machine learning are desired.
• Ability to identify and reduce technical debt.
• Good communication and teamwork skills in a small team.

We offer

• A Collaborative & Inclusive Culture where we celebrate and value everyone’s contributions, encouraging diverse perspectives in decision-making.
• Work‑Life Balance & Well‑being: We offer 1 hour per week of paid exercise, health insurance, and a generous pension plan, prioritizing your mental and physical well‑being.
• A Creative and Safe Workplace by joining a company experiencing rapid growth, with the stability of being Norway’s first unicorn listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange.
• International and Supportive Environment within a Norwegian multinational that values collaboration and innovation with a structured onboarding plan and career opportunities within the company.
