      • Plan and follow up on financials for the Embedded Solutions team
      • Lead technology exploration and partner collaboration in the Embedded domain


      Strong embedded product development and leadership skills

      We are looking for someone who has solid experience in embedded product development, with success stories on timely and high-quality deliveries. You also have demonstrated a history of leading diverse and high-performing teams, preferably in the medical device domain or in a similar, regulated industry. You thrive for results and set ambitious but achievable goals for yourself and your team, while being supportive, enabling your team to reach your goals and develop.

      • A relevant master’s degree within, e.g., Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, Computer Science or similar
      • Have built a strong toolbox of technical knowledge and experience
      • Solid people leadership experience from leading a functional area, implementing strategic plans, influencing people on different levels, and setting direction
      • Ability to navigate cross-functionally in a large organization
      • Fluent in English, both written and spoken
