Junior System Engineer – Data Fusion for the Defense Industry

Do you want to develop the decision support systems of the future and contribute to a safer society? We are looking for someone who wants to work at the forefront of technology – with sensor data, advanced signal processing, and system development – in a role where you can influence the entire chain from requirements to testing.

About the Role

As a System Engineer in Data Fusion, you will become a key person in our client's technical development projects. You will be responsible for the interface between technical development and system design, where you translate physical phenomena and sensor information into mathematical models and requirements for further development.

You will:

Model and describe sensor systems and system interfaces
Participate in requirements formulation, system architecture, and technical planning
Work with algorithms and data processing in areas such as radar, signal intelligence, and AI integration
Write and review code in C++, Java, or Python (about 15% of the work)
Support project managers, developers, and other technical specialists
Work on multiple parallel projects within maritime, land, air, or space systems

About the Project

Our client's Data Fusion solutions are central to modern command systems used by actors within total defense. By combining information from multiple sensors – such as radar, AIS, and signal intelligence equipment – a coherent and reliable situational picture is created in real-time. The systems are used for monitoring airspace, water areas, and other critical environments, with the aim of providing the right decision support at the right time.

Team & Culture

You will join a section that drives digitization and AI integration within high-tech system development. Your closest team consists of system engineers, project managers, and developers – with diverse backgrounds in technical physics, data, electrical engineering, and mathematics. The team works closely together across areas of expertise. The culture is characterized by openness, knowledge sharing, and technical curiosity.

Your Profile

To thrive and succeed in this role, we believe you are someone who easily sees patterns in complex information and is driven to move from ambiguity to clarity. You are curious, eager to learn, and enjoy learning new things – especially in dialogue with other areas of expertise. Collaboration is a natural part of your work style. You communicate openly, take initiative, and contribute to creating an environment where different perspectives are welcomed. You have good self-leadership, are structured, and have a desire to contribute long-term – both to the team's success and to socially beneficial technical solutions.

Required Qualifications:

Master's degree in areas such as technical physics, technical mathematics, computer engineering, electrical engineering, aerospace engineering, or similar
Good knowledge of both Swedish and English, spoken and written

The assignment is classified. Before employment, you will need to undergo a security clearance and be approved according to current regulations for security protection. NOTE: This requires certain citizenship.

Meritorious:

Experience in software development, testing, or verification
PhD in physics, mathematics, or systems engineering
