Vacant job

At our company, you will work with methodology, tools, and processes for flight-critical software for the Gripen, gaining a unique insight into the entire development chain. We warmly welcome your application!

Your Role

You will gain a unique holistic understanding of the Gripen's software development and work closely throughout the entire chain - from requirements, development, and testing to the verification of flight software.

Here, you will become part of the team developing flight-critical processes, tools, and methodologies for the Gripen's advanced avionics systems. The role combines technical development with methodology and process work, where you contribute to how the Gripen's flight-critical software is developed, tested, and quality assured. Few roles offer the same opportunity to influence how flight-critical software is developed - from requirements and methodology to verified software in flying systems.

Your Responsibilities

The role is fundamentally that of a software process engineer with a focus on flight-critical development. You will work in a broad and varied manner, with examples including:

• Develop tools and methodologies for testing, modeling, and generation of flight software
• Further develop working methods and processes for safety-critical software development within the Gripen
• Support development teams with technical questions related to methodology, tools, and software development
• Participate in the verification and quality assurance of safety-critical software
• Review and support development teams' declarations

We work according to RTCA DO-178C using tools such as Simulink, C++, and Python.

You will become part of a team where everyone contributes their competence and experience based on interest and strengths. We have both junior and senior developers and technical leaders here, so you will receive strong support for your development regardless of where you are in your career. The role is broad and offers the opportunity to deepen your expertise in areas such as methodology development, test tools, modeling, software architecture, or technical leadership over time.

The Avionics Systems EF area currently consists of approximately 100 employees who value knowledge sharing and collaboration to succeed together. Our common task is to further develop advanced avionics systems that meet the requirements for future flying combat platforms.

Your Profile

We are looking for you who are driven by the desire to develop, learn new things, and contribute where it is needed most. Here, there are many possible directions - whether you are passionate about process development, software architecture, test tools, Simulink modeling, or technical leadership.

We seek you with a technical university education, for example as an engineer, or equivalent experience that gives you a good foundation to understand and work with software development in complex systems. We believe you thrive in complex technical environments where quality, structure, and collaboration are crucial. You are curious, like to understand systems deeply, and are driven by improving working methods and technical solutions together with others.

We hire you based on who you are, your willingness to learn, and your ability to contribute - whether you are a recent graduate or experienced.

The position requires you to undergo and be approved according to current security clearance regulations. For positions where Saab has requirements for security classification, this may, in some cases, entail citizenship requirements.
