Main quest
Advancing knowledge to build a better world is a truly meaningful pursuit.

As a part of the HUNT Cloud team, you will enable scientists to do impactful science on sensitive data.

And you will create environments where people work together to discover knowledge that they couldn't have discovered alone.
Who you are
You are curious and courageous, and longs to solve challenges at scale to improve the well-being of others.

You are looking for purpose, personal growth, and genuinely difficult challenges that are super rewarding.

You are confident when being surrounded by people that challenge you, and hold skills that you don't have.

You don’t necessarily go with the flow, but think differently, and like to explore unknown terrain.

And most importantly, you get the thrills of creating things.
Who we are
We are imagineers and builders that want to see more ground breaking science happen.

We enjoy working with people who want to explore and succeed in building complex cloud services for science.

We are a small team where every employee contributes diverse experiences and invaluable insights.

About HUNT Cloud
HUNT Cloud was founded in 2013 to provide reliable cloud services for national and international science on sensitive data under NTNU's vision «knowledge for a better world».

We have grown out of the HUNT study, one of the largest health studies around, that has held sensitive health on computers since 1984 - then using 5.25-inch floppy disks on an IBM 5150.

Today, we are part of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim, Norway. And affiliated with the Department of Public Health and Nursing at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences.
Culture
Team with a flat structure where you are allowed to do what you really believe in, and have an impact.

International employees with English as working language, both in documents and conversations.

A small multidisciplinary team with complementary skills where you will be the expert in your field.

Roles and services are constantly evolving along with the development of the scientific frontier.

Employees that do what they enjoy the most, being building things, automating things, learning or teaching new skills, or diving head first into unknown territory.

Inclusive and multicultural environment that appreciates warm humor, diversity, care and respect.
Values
CURIOSITY - Use your imagination, creativity and curiosity to create new things and discover new knowledge.

TRUST - Have the courage to do what's right - both to safeguard research participant's personal data and to advance science at the same time.
Open Infra and Open Source
We run HUNT Cloud under open infrastructure principles.

Among others, this means that we embrace open source software, open standards and vendor neutral equipment whenever possible.

From an equality perspective, this enables scientists to share tools and methods around the world.

One more thing...
From time to time, we do small side quests, such as interviewing guests on our own video podcast to add interesting perspectives to the scientific debate.
