Do you want to take the next step in your career and have an exciting and developing job within the Armed Forces?

The Armed Forces is acquiring and introducing the S 106 flight system as a replacement for the S 100D (ASC890).

We are looking for someone who wants to be part of this!

Within the Armed Forces, you have the opportunity to practice your profession while contributing to creating a safer and more secure society together with your colleagues. We care about our employees and offer varied and exciting projects, development opportunities, value-creating teams, and we value work-life balance.

The operations will be characterized by method and technology development, unit establishment, training, and planned OPEVAL activities. Parts of the section will also be included in FMV's Verification and Validation activities (VoV).

Group Composition

The group's composition consists of areas that are considered critical for a safe introduction to be carried out. Prerequisites, educational requirements, and tasks are based on experience from previous introductions of flight systems and requirements from manuals and governing documents.
