Job description

Do you want to develop cutting‑edge products that train healthcare professionals and ultimately help save lives? Join us at Laerdal Copenhagen, where we build world‑class digital learning solutions used by millions globally.

The Team

We are building new capabilities for RQI (Resuscitation Quality Improvement) that help hospitals run CPR training the way their organisation actually works. That means connecting the training station to the learning systems hospitals already use, removing the friction between a learner walking up to the cart and starting a session, and giving the people who implement RQI the tools to configure it for their own context. You'll help shape these capabilities and weave them into one cohesive experience. In that way, your work will directly expand access to CPR training and support Laerdal's mission to help save more lives.

We work close to our customers: we visit hospitals, test our assumptions and build on modern technology, with an eye on where resuscitation training is heading next. You will work in a cross‑functional product team in Laerdal Copenhagen with product management, design and engineering, as well as with other product teams across Copenhagen, Stavanger, and the US. The team owns the core platform capabilities and collaborates closely with partners across the wider RQI ecosystem.
