We help humans train machines that move.
Kognic builds the annotation platform behind some of the world's most demanding autonomous driving programs.
“Few problems matter more than this one, and fewer teams sit this close to solving it. Come build the foundation for how cars will think, with us.”
Daniel Langkilde, CEO and Co-founder
Why work at Kognic
We asked our people. These four answers came up again and again.
Mission and impact
We are building the data foundation for a safer, more automated world. What we do today, the accuracy, the judgment calls, the edge cases we get right, will shape how the world drives, moves and lives tomorrow.
People
Ambitious, sharp and genuinely helpful, the kind of colleagues who drop what they are doing to help when you are stuck. No politics, no ego, just people who care about getting it right together.
Ethics
We hold ourselves and our partners to one non-negotiable standard: livable wages and respectful conditions for everyone in our supply chain, including annotators around the world. Our edge comes from better technology, never from cutting corners on people.
Growth and standards
High standards and psychological safety are not a trade-off here, they go together. You can say “I was wrong” or “I do not understand” without fear, and that is exactly what lets you improve fast.
What you get
It is fair to ask what you get in return. Hover to pause, or click one to hold it.
Perks and benefits
As long as the job gets done and your team is in sync, work whenever your inner clock tells you to. Early bird or night owl, we do not judge.
Work from wherever you want.
Fancy swapping your kitchen table for a beach in Spain? You get 15 working days a year to work abroad.
Considering vacation? You get 30 days a year to make the most of. Go somewhere, go nowhere, just go recharge.
On top of your 30 vacation days, paid leave for moving day, blood donation, doctor and dentist visits, family emergencies and bereavement. Life happens, and we have got you.
Six months of parental pay for new parents, so you can focus on the important stuff. Diaper changes and sleepless nights included.
Sweden’s wellness allowance. 5,000 kr a year to spend on staying active, de-stressing, or just feeling human again. Gym pass, massage, yoga, whatever gets you recharged.
7,000 kr a year for a course, a conference, a stack of books, or something completely new you have always wanted to try. Grow as a professional and as a person.
Lease a bike through a cost-neutral salary deduction. Better for the planet and far more fun than sitting in traffic.
Need career guidance, a specialist assessment, or some time with a psychologist? The private health insurance has you covered.
We cover the full cost of work visa processing and extensions, so that is one less thing on your plate.
An ITP1-equivalent package, salary exchange options, and personal adviser meetings, so future-you is just as taken care of as present-you.
We make sure your day starts right, and when you need a boost there is always fruit and snacks within arm’s reach. And of course coffee. Always coffee.
Our office sits in the heart of Gothenburg’s tech hub at Lindholmen, with harbour views, and a roof terrace to take them in from.
Board games? Cheese tasting? Pilates? Cinema? We do not cut back on fun. Every team gets its own budget for activities, and company-wide events happen monthly with different setups.
Once a month we eat breakfast together and listen to a team member talk about something they are passionate about. Equal parts learning and gossip-worthy fun facts.
A MacBook Pro, your pick of keyboard and mouse, plus a top-up budget to make your setup truly yours.
“The work is technical, the customers are real, and the team is small enough that what you design actually ships. I have not had that combination anywhere else.”
