Are you passionate about embedded software development? Would you like to be a part of a skilled team working together on world-class embedded technologies within hearing healthcare? Then we have a unique opportunity for you!

Part of a highly motivated team

In your new position at Demant, you will join the Foundation Software group, which is a part of the R&D unit Device SW. The group consists of about 20 highly skilled colleagues, working in four scrum teams with a focus on delivering embedded SW functionalities that form a foundation of all hearing device SW platforms.

You’ll be part of the team driving development of hearing aid control software, collaborating with software and hardware experts to create exceptional user experiences and shape the technologies of tomorrow. The atmosphere in the team is informal and friendly, but at the same time highly engaged.

We believe that the best results come from a fruitful team effort. We support each other, we provide feedback and share knowledge and ideas to continuously improve our solutions. We have a collaborative and creative atmosphere where respect is central, and where we work together towards common goals.

Embedded SW development for a resource constrained platform

Our goal is to deliver the most advanced low-power audio-enabled device, meeting medical device standards. This entails designing safe C code that provides advanced functionality with real-time guarantees for the audio system, while at the same time balancing memory consumption, compute cycles and power efficiency.

Our embedded software platform includes real-time operating system, file system, communication stacks, security, wireless audio systems and much more. Our software solutions are reviewed, optimized, and automatically tested in our continuous integration pipelines.

Our group is involved in all phases of product development, from system design to market release. This makes our work very diverse in terms of both pace and content. We work on advanced, custom-made, multi-core SoC solutions, and use a number of specialized in-house tools and procedures that assist our development at every stage.

As a member of embedded control SW team your main responsibilities would be to:

  • Design, develop, document, test and release embedded SW applications
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate SW features into hearing instruments.
  • Debug and resolve issues related to application SW.
  • Implement and maintain unit tests and other automated regression tests.
  • Share knowledge with your colleagues and participate in team ceremonies.

Your profile

We expect you to hold a relevant degree in Electronics or Computer Engineering and to have experience in the following areas of embedded SW development:

  • Embedded software development in C.
  • Embedded real-time operating systems (RTOS).
  • Programming for memory-, power-, time-constrained systems.
  • Unit and system testing.
  • Version control systems.
  • Linux and scripting.

We would consider it a plus if you had knowledge of processor architecture and experience with advanced build flows and multi-core development for real-time environments.

You are a collaborative team player who seeks the best solutions through constructive dialogue. You like to build maintainable code and take responsibility for all aspects of your work, including design, implementation, documentation and testing. You like learning new things and you are motivated by contributing to high quality of team deliveries.

We encourage you to apply also if you are newly graduated or have only a few years of relevant industry experience.

We believe in a good life

In Demant we trust and value professionalism, experience, and involvement. We recognize that to bring enthusiasm and inspiration to work, you need to recharge and spend time with family, friends, and hobbies in a healthy work-life balance.

To ensure the good life we offer breakfast and lunch every day in our canteen, free use of fitness room including weekly spinning sessions, massage offer, possibility to work from home up to two days per week, and, if you are a parent, you can stay home with your child as long as the child is not feeling well (no child’s first sick day).

Join our team!

Please submit your application, including your CV and a short description of your motivation and why we could be a match, no later than 28th September 2025. We expect to hold the first interview round during weeks 40 and 41.
