Test Engineer for Audiological Solutions

Are you interested in working with developing hearing instruments with a focus on end-user interaction? Do you thrive in a multidisciplinary, international environment? Are you ready to inspire with your quality-oriented mindset?
If your answer is “Yes,” join our committed team to improving the quality of life for hearing-impaired people through innovative technology.
At Demant, we produce audiological solutions that enhance the lives of our hearing aid users. We bring the latest technological innovations together in the complex and constrained form factor that is a hearing aid. Quality and attention to detail is paramount at every step of the developmental life cycle. Would you like to be part of that journey?

Ensure quality at every step of development
Developing hearing aid solutions involves a complex system with many parts working in concert. The audiological solutions group contributes to hearing aid feature development, advancing novel ideas and hardware through essential processes to bring commercial products to fruition. As a test engineer, you will be the glue between these steps, guiding the team to set milestones and ensuring the quality of our deliveries.
In your new role, you will have responsibilities, some specific to your role, some shared with your team, that can include:

• Implement test activities within your team, encouraging good practices and a quality-focused mindset.
• Create, update, and maintain manual and automated tests for our audiological system functions.
• Understand and anticipate interactions between different system parts to support impact analyses and test planning.
• Investigate, probe and debug when things don’t go as expected.
• Conduct informal listening and exploratory testing to quickly catch and react to unexpected behaviors.
• Collaborate on non-test related activities, such as algorithm development, system integration, requirements writing, and reviewing.

Be part of a diverse team in Smørum, Denmark
Your new position is based at our Smørum, Denmark, headquarters, where you'll be part of a cross-functional and diverse team consisting of 6 developers, a Scrum Master/Team Coach, and a Product Owner working within an Agile framework. You will report to the Senior Manager, Audiological Solutions.
You will collaborate closely with other teams to design, implement, test, and qualify full-stack increments of our products according to SAFe practices. Our teams handle their projects from idea to product, supported by the business side to set future directions. Innovation and creativity are encouraged at every level in our organization.

What we’re looking for
You have experience with testing digital signal processing (DSP), electroacoustics or audiological features and are comfortable with practical acoustical measurements. You are an active supporter of good test practices, enabling you to guide your team towards better practices.
It is essential that you have a B.Sc. / M.Sc. in engineering or similar. A background in ISTQB principles combined with experience in continuous integration platforms, including TeamCity, is beneficial.
You are comfortable with the basic programming tasks needed for test automation (mainly in MATLAB, but knowledge of Python and XML syntax and parsing is beneficial) and you have the bandwidth to learn new internal tools and processes. You are methodical in your approach to new problems and comfortable learning about and navigating complex systems. You are genuinely interested in user interaction and have a real interest in how the end-users interact with and perceive our devices. Finally, you see yourself as a team player who thrives in working in close collaboration with your peers and who values trust and openness.

Are you ready to make a change?
