Who are we?
WS Audiology (WSA) is a global leader in the hearing aid industry. Together with our 12,000 colleagues in 130 countries, we invite you to help unlock human potential by bringing back hearing for millions of people around the world. Our portfolio of technologies spans the full spectrum of hearing care, from distinct hearing brands and digital platforms to managed care, hearing centers and diagnostics locations.
SHOEBOX is a WS Audiology Group (WSA) brand. We design and develop audiometry products that are creating a seismic shift in the way hearing healthcare is provided. Utilizing iOS and web technology to replace bulky, expensive equipment, we're bringing hearing testing into the 21st century and making it more affordable and accessible than ever before with the ambition of making a wonderful sound part of everyone's life.
Why that's important: 5% of the world's population suffers from disabling hearing loss, 60% of childhood hearing loss is due to preventable causes, and the majority of people with disabling hearing loss live in low-middle income countries. We can help. With our products, hearing testing can be conducted outside of a sound booth and without the need for clunky equipment (you just need a calibrated headset and an iPad), which allows for testing almost anywhere, anytime, worldwide.
At SHOEBOX, your contribution will have a meaningful impact every single day. On top of that, you'll be an integral part of an innovative team, working with the latest tools and technologies, pushing the boundaries of what the quality assurance function can do, and collaborating with teams of people who are super passionate about their crafts.
In joining us, you're joining a dedicated and passionate team that works hard and cares deeply about the change we're making in the world. We also take time to celebrate our successes, enjoy lunchtimes together, and genuinely like and care about one another. We offer competitive salaries and benefits, real work-life balance and flexible hours. We invite enthusiastic and qualified applicants to submit their resume.
We thank all applicants; however, only those selected for an interview will be contacted.
