Software developer for Oticon Medical

Oticon Medical is a young company within the William Demant Holding Group.

The company has an ambition to empower all users of bone anchored hearing systems through the use of unique systems and technologies. As a software developer for Oticon Medical, you have the chance to become part of a team of dedicated people, working towards developing the best and most innovative solutions in the global market place.

Developing fitting software
You will become part of the Oticon Medical R&D team based in Smørum. You will however have close collaboration with colleagues, both in Gothenburg and inside Oticon, Smørum.  You will join a team that focuses on developing future versions of fitting software for bone anchored hearing systems. More specifically, based on the requirements from e.g. customers, marketing, management and project management, you will assist in defining, designing and developing new features for the Genie Medical fitting solution. You can read more about it on Oticon Medical's web site:  www.oticonmedical.com

In your new role, you have the chance to influence your own projects and processes and work broadly with all aspects of software development. This obviously requires you to enjoy taking responsibility and work independently.
The software is developed in C# with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.

Our expectations to you
We prefer you to have a degree at MSc level in computer science, software engineering or equivalent. Furthermore, you have gained some years experience, ideally as a developer within the medico industry, so that you are familiar with developing software that adheres to legislation, rules and regulations. However, working as a developer on large scale projects within e.g. the finance or insurance industry could also be a relevant background. Alternatively, you may have gained your experience from a smaller software development company, where you have worked with all aspects of the development process. If you have worked with firmware, then that is definitely an advantage.

In terms of your technical background, you have developed windows applications, and more specifically:

• C# .NET
• Windows Forms or Windows Presentation Foundation
• Microsoft Visual Studio
• Team Foundation Server or similar versioning tool
• Object Orientated Design & Programming

Alternatively, you may have worked with C++ and/or Java. In addition, knowledge of the SCRUM methodology is an advantage.

As a person, you thrive in a position with an extensive interface, including client exposure. You can work independently and consider yourself a self-starter and motivator. You understand the value of sharing knowledge with your team and you do not mind working on various tasks simultaneously.

We dare to make a difference
Together with your talented colleagues who take pride in making a difference, you will have the opportunity to put your mark on tomorrow's solutions. We are at the forefront of the latest technology, constantly working to improve hearing solutions so that our customers can add value for users and we can strengthen and develop the business. You will be working in a growing international company, where there is rich opportunity for professional and personal development. You will be part of a dynamic environment built on trust and openness, where you will find a strong will to win.
