Your Skills and Competencies

We are looking for someone who is a university engineer or has technical skills and experience deemed equivalent by the employer. Education and work in medical technology is an advantage. IT skills are a prerequisite as today's medical technology equipment is increasingly intertwined with other IT infrastructure, as well as knowledge in electrical/electronics.
