Careers

Join our innovative venture

We are a Swedish software startup with global reach and ambition. We provide Seismic Processing as a Service, primarily for underground mines, but also for other applications of microseismic monitoring. We actively pursue business on a global basis and we have projects and clients on multiple continents.

Working with us

Our unique approach is based on more than a decade’s research, and we are passionate about creating the very best software implementations of the most efficient and sophisticated algorithms, and building intuitive and powerful end-user tools, always obsessed with customer value!

We are a small team where your personal curiosity and drive will shape your role over time, with excellent growth opportunities. Our operations are lean, with minimal overheads and management. Individual drive and responsibility are essential and highly valued in our team.

We primarily want to build a team in and around Luleå, Sweden. We work severaly days a week remotely, but as our team grows, we expect to spend more time together in the office.

Current opportunities

Distributed Acoustic Sensing & Microseismic Event Detection
– Student (summer) project

Interested in signal processing, AI, or data science? This project focuses on Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS), a fiber optic technology used to detect and locate induced microseismic events.

A single fiber acts as a dense sensor array, producing clear patterns in waterfall plots when seismic events occur nearby. However, DAS systems generate massive datasets, making efficient processing essential.

Project Goal
Develop a streamlined workflow to extract relevant seismic information and reduce computational load.

Scope
• Event Detection (core): Identify files with microseismic events and filter out noise
• Event Segmentation (optional): Split multi-event files into event-specific windows
• Arrival Time Estimation (optional): Estimate P-wave and S-wave arrival times

What You’ll Gain
• Hands-on experience with real DAS data
• Skills in signal processing and pattern recognition
• Insight into modern seismic monitoring techniques

Benchmarking Moment Tensor Solutions

– Student (summer) project

Interested in combining geophysics with coding and software development? This project focuses on understanding earthquakes at their source using seismic moment tensor analysis.

We are looking for a student comfortable with programming and interested in testing and evaluating open-source tools. You will work with seismic data and compare the current method used in our processing platform with alternative solutions.

Project Goal
Evaluate and improve approaches for analyzing earthquake source mechanisms using moment tensor inversion.

Scope
• Investigate earthquake source mechanisms
• Work with seismic moment tensor analysis
• Compare performance of existing and open-source solutions
• Contribute to improving seismic data processing workflows

What You’ll Gain
• Hands-on experience with seismic data analysis
• Insight into earthquake source characterization
• Experience evaluating modern open-source tools in a real-world context
