The Role
Develop and deploy advanced machine learning systems for AI-powered sports video analysis. Responsibilities include training models, building efficient cloud and edge inference pipelines, supervising data annotation, improving evaluation methods, planning technical work, and mentoring colleagues. The role requires ownership of complex projects from concept through deployment, strong software engineering skills, sound technical judgment, and collaboration across research, product, and engineering teams.
Summary Generated by Built In

Veo is an AI-powered sports camera and analysis ecosystem built for one job: turning what happens on a pitch into proof. Capture, viewing, data and analytics, sharing- all in one system, all pointed at the same thing.

 

That's bigger than football. Every player, on every pitch, gets access to the kind of proof only the top academies used to keep for themselves. It's the future we're building.

 

Every youth match still has a moment nobody saw. A run that won the game, underneath everyone's radar. A kid written off before anyone actually checked. We exist to close that gap, one match at a time.

 

One camera on any pitch feeds an AI that tracks every player and the ball for the whole game, turning what happened into evidence instead of somebody's opinion.

 

That's the actual job here. Not shipping features. Building the system that gives proof to someone who used to rely on a hunch.

 

If you've ever watched a match and wondered who else saw what you saw, you already know why this matters.

We're looking for people who want to build that future with us.


The Opportunity

As a Senior Machine Learning Engineer at Veo you will get to work on challenging problems and directly contribute to the value created by our AI-driven end-user products.

You will become part of our AI team, which comprises 20+ researchers and engineers responsible for all stages in the machine learning lifecycles across different projects - from scoping and defining data annotation tasks to modeling, validation, and deployment. You will take ownership of the direction and execution of your projects while collaborating closely with the rest of the team, exchanging feedback, and helping others improve and succeed.

We stay current with the latest research and continuously discuss concepts and ideas in recent papers to assess their relevance to our tasks and product-specific challenges.

We are looking for an ambitious, high-performing senior engineer or researcher with a strong track record of delivering real-world machine learning systems. You should bring the technical depth and judgment needed to make sound decisions in complex and sometimes ambiguous environments.

What you will do:

  • Train state-of-the-art machine learning models
  • Write efficient inference pipelines for cloud and edge
  • Define and supervise data annotation tasks
  • Improve evaluation schemes to increase understanding of model performance and shortcomings
  • Contribute to long-term planning and prioritization of tasks
  • Mentor colleagues and raise the technical bar through feedback, knowledge sharing, and collaboration

What you could bring:

  • MSc or PhD in a relevant field, or equivalent practical experience
  • Extensive hands-on experience delivering real-world, large-scale machine learning projects
  • Strong coding and software engineering skills, with experience building maintainable production systems
  • Experience taking ownership of technically complex projects from concept to deployment
  • Sound technical judgment and the ability to navigate ambiguity and balance research, product, and engineering considerations
  • A rigorous and critical approach to examining details, assumptions, and results
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to influence technical direction across teams

Our Copenhagen office mirrors our innovative technology – with an indoor ball court, rooftop terrace, and well-equipped gym. We have created a facility that supports connecting disciplines across the business, facilitates creative thinking, and gives the space to engage with colleagues, our global partners, and the entire Veo community.
