Careers

Build the intelligent layer on top of CCTV.

Most cameras record everything and catch nothing. We build the AI that changes that — for shopping malls, banks, estates and critical infrastructure across Africa and the UK. If that problem interests you, we would like to hear from you.

Why Sorveo

Work that shows up in the real world.

Problems with consequences

A missed intrusion or a dark camera is not an abstract metric. The systems you build protect people, premises and livelihoods — and you see the outcome reports that prove it.

Built for African operations

Intermittent power, variable bandwidth, mixed camera estates, real compliance duties under NDPR and POPIA. Constraints that make the engineering genuinely harder — and more interesting.

A team small enough to matter in

Between Lagos and London, you will not be one voice among hundreds. The work you own ships, and you will talk directly to the operators who depend on it.

Where we hire

Areas we are always interested in.

We accept general applications year-round. Tell us where you fit, and we will match your application against what we are actively hiring for.

AI & computer vision

Detection and recognition models that hold up on real camera feeds — poor lighting, odd angles, crowded scenes — not just on benchmark datasets.

Lagos / London / Remote

Software engineering

The platform around the models: video ingestion, alerting pipelines, dashboards, and integrations with NVRs and existing camera estates.

Lagos / London / Remote

Security operations

Analysts and shift leads who watch what matters, triage alerts, and turn detections into the right call at the right moment.

Lagos / On-site

Deployment & customer success

Getting Sorveo live on a customer's cameras, tuning detection rules to their site, and staying close through the pilot and beyond.

Lagos / Field

Sales & partnerships

Security integrators, facility operators and enterprise buyers across our markets — consultative selling into a technical, sceptical audience.

Lagos / London

Operations & finance

The commercial backbone — contracts, procurement, reporting, and the day-to-day running of a business across two jurisdictions.

How hiring works.

Four stages, usually two to four weeks end to end. No unpaid take-home marathons, and no interview panels that repeat the same questions.

  1. 1

    Application

    You send the form below. We read every one, and we tell you either way — including when the answer is no.

  2. 2

    Intro conversation (30 minutes)

    A call to understand what you have built, what you want next, and whether what we need lines up with it. Questions run both ways.

  3. 3

    Working session

    A practical exercise close to the actual job — reviewing a detection problem, walking through a deployment, or working a commercial scenario. Scoped to respect your time.

  4. 4

    Final conversation & offer

    A conversation with the team you would join, then a decision. If we make an offer, we explain the reasoning behind it.

Frequently asked

Careers FAQ.

Does Sorveo have open roles right now?

We accept general applications year-round across engineering, security operations, and commercial teams. When a specific opening matches your application, we get in touch directly.

Where are Sorveo roles based?

Our offices are in Lagos, Nigeria and London, United Kingdom. Some roles are remote or hybrid, and security operations roles are typically on-site or shift-based.

Do I need experience in security or CCTV to apply?

No. Many of our team came from software, data, and operations backgrounds with no prior CCTV experience. Domain knowledge helps for security operations roles, but for engineering and commercial roles we care more about capability and judgement.

How long does the hiring process take?

Typically two to four weeks from application to decision, depending on the role and how quickly we can schedule conversations. We aim to respond to every application.

Can I apply for more than one role?

Yes. Submit one application and tell us in the form which areas interest you. We review each application against every area we are actively hiring for.

Do you take interns or graduate applicants?

Yes. Use the same form and tell us where you are in your studies or career. We look at trajectory and evidence of building things, not only years of experience.
