About the job

Laerdal Medical is a global, mission-driven healthcare company that designs learning and simulation solutions to help healthcare professionals deliver safer patient care. We are committed to helping save one million more lives every year by 2030.

Sim to Improve is a strategic Laerdal initiative: an AI-powered platform that helps healthcare organizations understand how work actually happens, uncover workflow challenges, test changes before they reach patients, and drive quality improvement at scale.

Responsibilities

• Lead and develop engineers through clear direction, trust, useful feedback and room to grow.
• Contribute hands-on through coding, design, code reviews, testing and delivery of production software.
• Own the engineering health of the platform: architecture, security, quality, reliability and operational readiness.
• Shape a cloud-native SaaS architecture built for scale, privacy and long-term maintainability.
• Turn feedback from pilot sites into product and engineering improvements, balancing fast learning with sustainable choices.
• Ensure AI and data components are integrated securely and responsibly, together with Laerdal's AI and Data teams.
• Build an inclusive team culture where engineers challenge ideas constructively and share ownership of outcomes.

Qualifications

• A degree in Computer Science, Engineering or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• A strong hands-on software development background, including system design, and a genuine desire to keep contributing to production code.
• Experience leading or mentoring engineers in a product-focused team, as an Engineering Manager, Tech Lead or senior engineer with team responsibility.
• Strong experience with C#/.NET in the cloud; Azure preferred.
• Enough frontend experience, ideally React, to guide end-to-end decisions.
• Practical experience with secure development: threat modelling, handling vulnerabilities in production, cloud security and building security into CI/CD.
• Clear communication and the judgment to balance speed, quality and long-term sustainability.

Personal qualities

• You are an engineering leader who still enjoys writing code.
• You build credibility by contributing and helping the team make better decisions, not by taking all decisions yourself.
• You can create structure in an early-stage product without removing the team's autonomy or slowing learning.
• You are comfortable discussing product outcomes with non-technical stakeholders as you are pairing with an engineer, reviewing an API design or debugging a production issue.

We offer

• Interesting and meaningful work contributing to our mission.
• Opportunities for personal and professional growth.
• A great, diverse, inclusive, and international work environment.
• Innovative and forward-thinking technology.
• Competitive compensation and benefits package.
• Flexible work arrangements, an extensive wellbeing program with social, cultural and sports activities and benefits such as discounted public transport, wardrobe with towel service, company cabins, and more.
