Our team
We are a multi disciplinary product development team for Sleep related consumer products, situated on the Philips campus in the North of the Netherlands. Together with our global partners we are responsible for the end-to-end development, from requirements definition to verification, validation and post launch maintenance. As a small team we rely on functional ownership, where each discipline-owner sets a clear direction and solves challenges, using the freedom that is given. Per project we decide whether we develop the software solution in-house, based on our platform, or use global partners. In all cases, our team drives the architecture, reviews, tests and signs of the final design.
