Technical Lead for research and technology projects

jobbeskrivelse:

Does leading technical projects within e.g. sound processing, connectivity, sensors, human-computer interfaces and machine learning sound appealing to you? 

Then this is your chance to make your mark on future solutions that will improve the quality of life for people with a hearing impairment.

Join Global R&D to lead major technology shifts 
At GN Hearing’s HQ in Ballerup, Denmark, you enter our Ideation team of 2, part of a larger research network in GN with other project members located in Denmark, the Netherlands and the US. As the starting point for all new product-related concept ideas, our job is to scope how new technologies can be developed and matured into value-adding solutions for the end user and commercially viable products for GN Hearing.

In other words, we facilitate the transformation of new technologies into future hearing aid solutions that make life sound better.

Manage cutting-edge technology projects
As the technical lead, you drive multidisciplinary projects with the aim of maturing select ideas into concepts for product development. You are responsible for setting project goals and aligning the teams and stakeholders. Providing both a project overview and in-depth technical know-how, you:

• Participate in the ideation and definition of project concepts that combine new technologies, user needs and market opportunities 
• Manage and ensure timely delivery of projects
• Monitor and communicate project progress, roadblocks and scope to stakeholders and owners and take corrective action when needed
• Coordinate and secure communication and alignment within the team and with other teams across sites
• Coordinate project sub-deliveries, roles and responsibilities across disciplines 
• Ensure smooth handover of projects to the development organization

The daily communication with project members is handled online, but occasional travel is to be expected – approximately 10-12 days per year.

Holistic technical lead with knowledge of sound
You are able to holistically bridge different disciplines and prioritize where others should devote their efforts – and you can communicate with and manage different stakeholders with respect for their backgrounds and stake in the project. 

As we work with new technologies, we face some unpredictability. Therefore, it is important you can manage change, handle uncertainty and, to a certain extent, thrive with it, asking the right questions to find the answers that can drive the projects forward. 

Moreover, you bring:
• 5+ years of experience partaking in technical projects – ideally related to sound processing, acoustics or hearing aid development
• Minimum a bachelor’s degree in acoustic engineering, signal processing, hearing science or similar 
• A technical understanding of sound, sound processing, hearing, HW, SW, apps, wireless, Bluetooth, human-computer interaction, user experience and how they relate
• A proven ability to understand and combine user needs, value creation and technology 
• Ideally, experience with agile leadership, project management and/or development
• Fluency in spoken and written English – Danish is an advantage
