Engineer with experience in advanced IT systems for the Combat Aircraft Division

Are you an engineer with experience working with advanced IT systems? We are now looking for new employees for the Combat Aircraft Division. In close collaboration with an experienced team, you will have the opportunity to influence both detail and overall aspects of projects that strengthen the capabilities of the Swedish Armed Forces and our export countries. Your work is significant at every step, from needs and ideas to delivery and follow-up.

About the position

You will be part of a knowledge-intensive team that together utilizes your competencies to develop and maintain aircraft-related support systems for the JAS 39 Gripen, which the Swedish Armed Forces and our export countries use daily in their flight operations. Support systems include flight training systems, technician and pilot training systems (simulators), as well as planning and evaluation systems.

In this role, you will collaborate closely with suppliers, the Swedish Armed Forces, and other customers to deliver the best possible versions of the JAS 39 Gripen. You will therefore be involved in the entire chain, from development to decommissioning. This means you will participate in forums with suppliers, the Swedish Armed Forces, and other export countries regarding the aircraft-related IT support systems.

As an engineer with us, you will work with the entire chain from needs to world-leading technology. In this role, you will be involved in all phases of the system's lifecycle, from ensuring that long-term plans are developed to handling operational issues. You will work with capability requirements from the Swedish Armed Forces, configuration management, procurements, and participate in reviewing design and technical solution proposals from suppliers. You will have a broad network within FMV (Swedish Defence Materiel Administration) with suppliers and customers.

The position is located in Stockholm. Travel is included in the position, and international travel may occur.

About you

We are looking for someone who is a civil or university engineer, systems scientist, or has equivalent competence acquired in another way that we assess as equivalent. You have several years of experience with advanced IT systems at an overarching level. To succeed in this role, it is essential that you have experience working in project form. A fundamental requirement is that you have good knowledge of Swedish and English, both spoken and written.

It is advantageous if you have experience in the area of electronic warfare and also if you have experience from working in the simulator area. We would like you to have experience negotiating with suppliers and that you have worked within IT architecture or IT security. If you have previous experience working with ILS, or military aviation regulations or equivalent civilian regulations, we see it as an advantage. We also appreciate if you have worked in product and configuration management. To succeed in this role, we would like you to have experience in technical analysis work or system development.

Personal qualities are of great importance to us. We welcome applicants with diverse backgrounds and experiences and are looking for someone who enjoys working both independently and in a team, which requires you to be responsive and have good collaboration skills. We also see that you are self-driven, take initiative, and solve problems constructively in close collaboration with colleagues, as well as having the ability to plan and structure your work.
