If empowering talented teams, driving agile transformations, and exploring state-of-the-art ways of working within embedded software motivates you, then read on!
You will become part of the Embedded Software group, a part of the R&D unit Device Software. This group is responsible for developing the embedded software and related tooling for our hearing aid products.
You will join and lead a team of 22 developers in three scrum teams with a focus on embedded firmware, embedded software application and the related tooling. The teams are responsible for the smooth and reliable operation of the hearing instrument all the way from lowest level drivers and up to user interaction. The competences in the teams are mainly embedded software development and test and related tooling, such as CI/CD and DevEx.
We believe that the best results come from a fruitful team effort. We support each other and constantly provide feedback and knowledge to improve our results. We have an informal and creative atmosphere where respect is pivotal, and we work for the common goal.
You will be a part of a leadership team together with Line Managers, Scrum Masters, Product Owners and System Architects. The collaboration in the leadership team is fundamental to our goal of making great products as efficiently as possible and making Embedded Software a fantastic place to work.
The developers in the teams are responsible for the embedded software platform and tooling for all Demant hearing instruments. The developers are part of a SAFe Agile release train (ART), organized in self-governing scrum teams with product owners, who manage the team backlog, and scrum master/team coaches who facilitate the team progress towards the goal.

The job offers a variety of tasks and gives you the possibility to further develop your skills within management and influence the organization. We are looking forward to your new perspectives, insights, and ideas.
You will be part of a dynamic environment built on trust and openness, where you will find a strong will to win. We are a growing international company, where everyone strives to ensure that customers find our products the most attractive on the market. You will become part of a positive and open work environment where flexible working conditions, knowledge-sharing and professional respect make it both challenging and meaningful to go to work.
You will have domain knowledge for the teams you will lead, and you have documented experience with managing and developing highly skilled and specialized teams in a large-scale R&D setting.
You have great people management skills and are an inspiring communicator. You are excited about developing people, teams, and the context they are in, focusing on empowering teams and the individual.
As we are searching for a leader for a team working in a SAFe environment, it is important that your personal toolbox and motivation is matching the servant leader setup in SAFe. If you don’t already know SAFe, don’t worry, we are in the early stages of our SAFe transformation, so you will join our training programme.
Please send your application as soon as possible, as we are screening applications on a continuous basis. Deadline for the application is 17 August 2025. We only accept applications via our online recruitment system.
