About us

As a Systems Engineer at Saab Surveillance, you will work on the development of advanced defense products, with a particular focus on maritime command systems. Your role involves ensuring our products meet the requirements and expectations that our customers have for their capabilities. You will lead the technical work throughout the product lifecycle, from initial studies to development and ongoing maintenance. The work includes requirements analysis, specification, and verification of the final product. Your primary focus will be on the software components included in our deliveries. You will act as a link between project management and the various development teams, breaking down work packages into action points that are taken forward to development. You will work with tools such as Jira and Confluence.

Your role

In the role of Systems Engineer, you have an understanding of the overall picture of our products, but also the ability to explain, communicate, and document how the systems are intended to function. The deliveries are technically broad and may include components in both hardware and mechanics.

You will be part of a team with diverse backgrounds and experiences that appreciate each other's differences and strive for an open and helpful culture.

In the role of Systems Engineer, you can also expect:

Work with requirements specification, planning, analysis, summarizing results, and reporting.
Movement across many technical areas, where your contact points within the company will be broad.
Collaboration in project form with various parts of Saab Naval Combat Systems, other parts of Saab, as well as national or international partners.
Our projects vary in size, requiring flexibility as you may work on several projects simultaneously.

The role of Systems Engineer may involve extensive customer contact and may also involve travel within and outside Sweden depending on assignments and customers.

Your profile

Master's degree in systems development or equivalent with several years of experience, preferably from software systems development.
Experience in specifying requirements and structuring complex systems to create a robust system architecture.
Good collaboration skills and the ability to drive your work forward independently.

The position requires you to undergo and be approved according to the applicable security protection regulations. For positions where Saab has requirements for security classification, this may, in certain cases, involve requirements for specific citizenship.
