Elos Medtech is one of the world’s leading development and manufacturing partners for companies in the medical technology sector. With sites in Switzerland, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, China, and the United States, we specialize in the production of implants, instruments, and components for medical technologies.

We are looking for individuals who share our values — passion, trust, and results — so we can grow together and achieve even greater success. If you are ready to give your best and join an environment that values collaboration and commitment, we look forward to receiving your application.

Build your expertise in design control and usability engineering, take ownership of your work, and learn from experienced colleagues who are ready to share their knowledge. As a Design Control Engineer at Elos Medtech, you will help turn complex requirements into clear documentation that supports the development of high-quality dental medical devices.

If you enjoy bringing structure to complex information, this role gives you the opportunity to develop specialist skills with responsibility for your own tasks and colleagues to consult along the way. Your focus will be on documentation and development processes rather than hands-on product design, in a team where questions and mutual support are valued.

We are a medium-sized medtech company in Gørløse near Hillerød, developing and manufacturing products for the global dental industry. You will work closely with colleagues and customers to support the development of high-quality dental medical devices.

Product Development – Your New Team

You will join our Product Development department, a team of 7 dedicated Product Development Engineers within our Dental Business Division. The division has production sites in Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, and Denmark. The team covers the full product development lifecycle, from design and materials to verification, validation, and technical documentation. Your role is primarily administrative and documentation-focused: approximately 90% of your time will be spent preparing, reviewing, maintaining, and coordinating documentation and procedures. You will take ownership of design control documentation and ensure clear traceability from user needs and design inputs to verification and validation. Usability engineering is an important part of the role -not an optional extra. You will collaborate with Product Development Engineers, Quality Assurance, Regulatory Affairs, Production Engineering, Product Management, and our Commercial team, reporting directly to the Product Development Manager. You will have responsibility for your own tasks, with colleagues to consult when questions arise. We value people who reach out early, clarify uncertainties, and work together to keep projects moving.

Your Main Responsibilities

· Take ownership of design control activities and documentation in cross-functional development projects for dental products and customer-specific solutions

· Define and document user needs and design inputs, maintain traceability, coordinate design reviews, and follow up on outstanding actions

· Plan and coordinate design verification and validation activities, including preparing protocols and reports and ensuring documentation is complete

· Prepare, review, and maintain structured design and development documentation in accordance with internal processes, ISO 13485, and applicable medical device regulatory requirements

· Maintain and update internal design and development procedures, ensuring they remain clear and consistent

· Support risk management and design change assessments, ensuring alignment with design requirements, verification, and validation documentation

· Contribute to usability engineering, including use specifications, use-related risk analysis, and the planning and documentation of formative and summative usability evaluations

· Collaborate on instructions for use and labeling to ensure consistency with user needs, risk controls, and usability findings

· Short business travel may occur in connection with customer projects and can be planned in advance

Your Qualifications

· Bachelor’s degree or higher in Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or a related technical discipline

· A strong understanding of medical device development and the ability to turn complex technical information into clear, accurate, and well-structured documentation

· Ideally 3-5 years of experience in medical device development, including hands-on design control experience, preferably gained at another medical device company

· A working knowledge of usability engineering and how user needs, use-related risks, and usability evaluations inform development; practical experience with usability engineering activities and documentation is highly valued

· Experience preparing and maintaining design control documentation within an ISO 13485 quality management system and supporting compliance with applicable medical device regulatory requirements

· A conscientious, diligent approach, with the ability to manage complex requirements, organise detailed documentation, and follow through on multiple tasks

· Strong English communication skills, both written and spoken

You bring a proactive, dependable approach to detailed documentation: sustaining the effort it requires, managing complexity and details, and maintaining quality across parallel activities. You take responsibility and complete tasks without prompting, while supporting colleagues by sharing information and seeking help or clarification when needed.

What’s in It for You?

· Ownership of work that matters: take responsibility for the documentation and processes that support the development of high-quality dental medical devices. This is a role for you if you enjoy creating structure and seeing detailed tasks through to completion.

· The opportunity to deepen your expertise: develop your design control and usability engineering skills while working alongside experienced Product Development colleagues and collaborating across functions.

· Support when you need it: join a team with a flat organisational structure, where you can ask questions, clarify uncertainties, and draw on your colleagues’ experience.

· Benefits that support your everyday wellbeing:

o Access to a massage scheme

o A lunch program

o Social activities through our employee club

o Access to on-site fitness facilities

o Comprehensive health insurance, annual influenza vaccination, preventive health screenings, and other health-promoting initiatives

· Day-to-day connection with your colleagues: our working culture prioritises in-person collaboration, and we prefer you to work on site in Gørløse most of the time.
