About the Team
Saab Inc.'s Autonomous and Undersea Systems (AUS) division is a world-class team recognized for its technical accomplishments and vision in the maritime and defense sectors. Empowered by talented engineers, the AUS group keeps pushing the boundaries of technology to create safer and more sustainable solutions for nations. The team is dedicated to defining, architecting, and delivering software products for autonomous Unmanned Surface/Underwater Vehicles (USVs/UUVs/AUVs) and Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs).
About the Role
As a Senior Software Engineer, you will be a key contributor to the Saab AUS team, helping to expand our portfolio of products, technologies, and capabilities. This role offers a unique opportunity to gain tremendous experience with unmanned maritime software and systems. Unlike many software positions, you will see how your efforts contribute to the entire lifecycle and success of a delivered system, from design and prototyping to verification and support. You may even have the chance to witness the systems you help build operated at sea.
You will solve difficult problems and deliver systems that provide critical capabilities to our customers, working alongside a team of engineers to create innovative solutions. Your work will directly support the U.S. Armed Forces, the Federal Aviation Administration, and international partners.
