We are looking for a Software Engineer with Data experience to help build the most accurate people movement insights

We are a location data company that helps businesses build better products and make smarter decisions using real-world location data.

This role is in the Turbine Business Unit of Unacast, the location processing platform for Telcos, which comprises models and algorithms we offer to Telcos to turn their raw signal data into people movement insights. Today our models help Telcos create insights they monetise by helping their customers answer questions like: how many people went to a music concert, how many people took a specific train or what means of travel people used on a specific road segment. We are constantly adding new data models and using the best of ML/AI to improve the mobility insights we can create using Telco data. You will be an active participant in driving the future development of Turbine.

This is an on-site hybrid position (with 4 days in the week working in our Oslo office, or more if you want!). In case of a change of location, Unacast will not be able to handle Visa application support or relocation.

Our main office is on Karl Johans Gate in the heart of Oslo, where we meet every week with our international colleagues, both for work and for socializing. Our welcoming office has a focus on comfort, and this is reflected in the surroundings. Being part of Unacast means being part of a friendly and efficient workplace, with opportunities to grow and advance within the company.
