Job Description

Driven by the passion to improve quality of people’s lives, WSA continues to grow as a market leader in the hearing aid industry. With our commitment to increase penetration in an underserved hearing care market, we want to accelerate our business transformation in order to reach more people, more effectively.

This role combines hands-on engineering with technical leadership. You will strengthen maintainability, improve engineering practices, and modernize systems incrementally while ensuring predictable delivery of professional software used by hearing care professionals.

Working closely with R&D teams and internal stakeholders, you will help evolve production systems, improve development workflows, and enable reliable, high-quality releases in a quality-focused environment.

What you will do

  • Provide hands-on technical leadership and contribute directly to system design and implementation

  • Drive incremental modernization across architecture, tooling, automation, and build/release workflows

  • Improve system maintainability through pragmatic standards, documentation, and targeted refactoring

  • Strengthen quality and release readiness through effective test strategies and early risk visibility

  • Improve engineering effectiveness by optimizing CI/CD pipelines, build stability, and developer feedback loops

  • Mentor engineers and foster knowledge sharing to reduce single-person dependencies and strengthen team resilience

  • Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders across R&D and production/service teams to manage dependencies and align priorities

  • Contribute to areas such as fitting workflows for hearing care professionals, diagnostics and service tooling, firmware and AI image update flows, and developer enablement initiatives.

What you bring

Experience

  • Demonstrate senior engineering experience (e.g., Senior Engineer, Lead Engineer, or Technical Lead)

  • Maintain and evolve production systems, including balancing legacy environments with modernization efforts

  • Apply strong judgment when balancing system stability, maintainability, and delivery

  • Work with CI/CD pipelines, build and release tooling, or test automation practices

  • Operate in quality-focused environments where reliability and risk reduction are critical

  • Fluency (both written and verbal) in English, Danish is a plus.

Personal competencies

  • Communicate clearly and collaborate effectively across teams and disciplines

  • Lead through influence and technical credibility rather than hierarchy

  • Mentor engineers and actively support skill development and knowledge sharing

  • Demonstrate a pragmatic and solution-oriented approach to technical challenges

  • Promote sustainable engineering practices and continuous improvement

  • Take ownership of outcomes while maintaining focus on delivery and system quality.
