Sonova Group Tech Stack

Global hearing-aid and cochlear-implant manufacturer with 19,000+ employees

Medical Equipment Manufacturing Stäfa 10,001+ employees Public Company

Sonova is a public-company medical-device manufacturer operating hearing-aid brands (Phonak, Unitron, Advanced Bionics) and audio products across 100+ countries. The hiring mix reveals a healthcare-first organization—116 of 340 open roles are clinical/patient-care positions—while engineering (39 roles) and sales (49 roles) sit below. Active adoption of Databricks and dbt signals a data modernization effort, though the stack remains SAP-dominated (ECC, S/4HANA, EWM) and design-heavy (CAD, Creo, SolidWorks), typical of hardware manufacturing at scale.
