Do you want to make a real difference?

Here, you contribute to creating safety for people and communities. What you do matters.

The Aeronautics business unit Advanced Programs is growing, and we want to bring in more engaged colleagues who want to be part of our journey. Our mission is to explore and demonstrate the capabilities of future combat aircraft systems. We work with complex mission environments, multi-domain collaboration, and connected systems with new ways to share resources, including various cloud solutions. Autonomous decision-making supported by AI is also a central component of our development strategy.

Our core ideas:

• Exploration and curiosity: We don’t build products - we create ideas and prototypes through experimentation and innovation.
• Fast track to demonstration: Continuous testing and simulations to validate new technical solutions.
• Dare to try, dare to fail: Mistakes are seen as a learning process and part of development.
• Challenge and change: We challenge not only technological boundaries but also established ways of working and methods.

Your role

We are looking for someone who wants to lead our process and methodology work within software for future combat aircraft development. You will play a central role in ensuring that our software projects are carried out efficiently and with high quality according to DevOps methodology.

If this role sounds exciting, you will become part of the newly established section Cross-Domain Software Engineering, which is tasked with being a competence hub for software development. We are responsible for the software development process and support the business with processes, methodology, and tools. Here, you will work alongside truly helpful, driven, and knowledgeable people who all want to be part of creating the future of airborne defense. We believe in a culture built on trust and collaboration, where we move forward together with the help of our curiosity. If you believe in this too, you will surely thrive with us.
