We have digital signal processing engineers, embedded SW engineers, clinical audiologists, data scientists and test developers, all working together to ensure the best possible solutions for our end users.” says Henriette Understrup Pinholt and continues “And it’s also really important for us, that we have fun at work, and you will see that when you join the team”

You will join a skilled, cross-functional Scrum team of 6 to 9 developers working in close collaboration with other teams to produce full-stack increments of our products according to SAFe practices. Teams are working with high autonomy with support from the business side to set future directions. 

Engineer with experience in signal processing
You have a degree in Engineering with a background in signal processing as well as acoustics, psychoacoustics or similar. 

We are looking for someone who has experience working with audiological systems, but we are also curious to hear from you if this is an area you would like to move into.

You have an analytical mindset and are comfortable breaking down, learning, and navigating complex systems. You have solid foundations in signal processing and Matlab or Python programming. 

You see yourself as a team player who thrives in working in close collaboration with your peers and who values trust and openness.
