Firmware Engineer

Firmware Engineer - low level embedded software
In this a newly created position you will make a real difference for millions of hearing aid users worldwide.

Working with low level embedded software as part of advanced multi-core Network-on-Chip chipsets you will move our hearing aid solutions forward to new standards.

Does that sound interesting? Keep reading.

Part of a highly motivated team
You will be part of the Foundation Software Group consisting of 20 highly skilled colleagues divided into four scrum teams. The atmosphere is informal and humorous but at the same time highly ambitious.

Our team is involved in all phases of product development. All the way from IC specification (ICs), through early wakeup, product development and into the market. This means that our work is very diverse both with respect to pace and content.

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.

Loads of advanced features packed into a resource constrained platform
Depending on the phase of the project, we work in simulations, FPGAs or on the actual chipset. Since our chipsets are internally developed our delivery starts with the boot ROM and extends all the way up to the application layer.

Our goal is to deliver the most advanced low-power audio-enabled device, living up to medical device standards. This means that you will be required to design safe C code that provides advanced functionality with real-time guarantees for the audio system while balancing memory consumption, compute cycles and power efficiency.

The firmware platform includes hardware drivers, RTOS, power management, file system, communication stacks, firmware update functionality, security and much more.

In summary, you will join one of our four scrum teams, where you will:

• Design, develop, test and release firmware for our chipset.
• Enable hardware and production to calibrate and verify the final product.
• Contribute to the definition and development of our internally developed ICs.
• Master the challenge of developing firmware on a custom IC while it is under development.

We believe in the good life
In Demant we trust and value professionalism, experience, and commitment. We recognize that to bring energy and inspiration to work, you need to re-energize and spend time with family, friends, and hobbies in a healthy work life balance.

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

Your profile
Beside a relevant degree in Electronics or Computer Engineering you have experience with development of low-level embedded systems, from where you:

• Have experience in programming in C.
• Have experience in programming for memory/power/time constrained systems.
• Have experience in Linux and scripting.
• Have knowledge about ARM architectures.
• Understand processor architectures.
• Understand real-time operating systems and real-time handling of HW.

Other people will say you have a high focus on quality and testing at all levels and that you enjoy the respect of others as a team player, where you seek the optimal solution through a constructive dialogue.

Please note that it is required that you can work on-site in our headquarters in Smørum from day one.
