Who we are

Ambu is a global MedTech company specializing in innovative, single‑use endoscopy solutions and high‑quality products for anesthesia and patient monitoring. With a workforce of around 5,200 employees in 20+ countries, Ambu delivers medical devices that help treat more than 100 million patients every year.

The company drives the shift from reusable to single-use endoscopy by delivering solutions that enable health systems and clinicians to treat more patients, better and faster, across a growing number of care settings.

Ambu is also a pioneer in sustainable healthcare, introducing the world’s first endoscope handle made of bioplastics and launching a first-of-its-kind take-back and recycling program for used Ambu endoscopes.

Beyond endoscopy, Ambu develops trusted solutions for anesthesia and patient monitoring, such as resuscitators, laryngeal, and anesthesia masks, breathing circuits, and electrodes for cardiology and neurology.

Driven by the long-term ambition to achieve global endoscopy leadership, Ambu continues to elevate its entire endoscopy portfolio through its proprietary, AI-enabled software platform, EndoIntelligence. This platform empowers intelligent endoscopy training before procedures, advanced imaging and diagnostic support during procedures, and automated integration after procedures.

Products and services

Ambu offers the broadest single-use endoscopy portfolio that supports clinicians across respiratory care, urology, ear-nose-throat, and gastroenterology Ambu’s single-use endoscopes are always ready to use, provide consistently advanced image quality, and eliminate the need for cleaning, repairs, and complex reprocessing – helping hospitals work faster and more efficiently.

With EndoIntelligence, Ambu brings advanced digital capabilities to single-use endoscopy – delivering high-quality imaging, smooth data integration to hospitals’ electronic medical records, and AI-driven support that strengthens documentation, clinical decisions, and training.

Beyond endoscopy, Ambu provides trusted solutions in airway management (including video laryngoscopes and video‑enabled tubes), essential anesthesia products like the Ambu Bag, and a broad range of patient monitoring electrodes for cardiology and neurology.

Ambu also leads in sustainable healthcare, using bioplastics in its products and packaging, and offering a recycle for used Ambu endoscopes to help hospitals reduce waste and lower their carbon emissions.

Outlook for the future

With our ZOOM AHEAD strategy, Ambu sets a clear direction for the future: we aspire to become the global leader in single‑use endoscopy. The strategy focuses on winning in Respiratory and Urology, growing in ENT, and gradually unlocking the Gastroenterology market. At the same time, we strengthen our digital platform EndoIntelligence™ and continue profitable growth in Anesthesia & Patient Monitoring.

ZOOM AHEAD is built on four pillars that guide how we operate:

  • Customer Centricity: Deliver integrated solutions for entire health systems and support them in improving efficiency and sustainability.
  • Innovation: Develop advanced hardware‑software solutions and use AI to improve clinical outcomes and workflows.
  • Business Platform: Build a scalable, resilient global setup that ensures quality, supply reliability, and margin expansion.
  • People & Culture: Strengthen a performance‑driven culture where teams are empowered to grow, collaborate and take ownership.

Together, these pillars enable Ambu to deliver smarter solutions, shape the shift to single‑use endoscopy, and drive sustainable long‑term growth.

Who we are looking for

Areas of responsibility

In Augsburg, we drive the development of Ambu’s single-use endoscopes and digital solutions, handling everything from research and design to prototyping, testing, and quality management. Our interdisciplinary teams collaborate closely on integrated projects to deliver innovative medical devices. Simply put, Augsburg turns ideas into real products with technical expertise and teamwork, all focused on advancing patient care.

Required qualifications

Across our technical roles, we look for people with a solid technical background – for example in mechanical, electrical, software or biomedical engineering, physics, image processing or related fields. Experience in MedTech or other highly regulated industries is an advantage, but it is not a requirement to have worked in endoscopy before. We warmly welcome engineers from other domains who bring transferable skills, hands‑on problem‑solving abilities and the motivation to grow into a new field. As Ambu continues to grow, new opportunities also arise beyond our core technical positions, including roles in areas such as quality, project management, and other supporting functions. We encourage talented individuals from different backgrounds to stay connected with us as future opportunities evolve.
