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.

You will partner with a team of engineers to design and implement software across Linux, Windows, and embedded platforms. Your work will involve applying software engineering fundamentals to create innovative solutions, supporting modeling and simulation activities, and presenting technical concepts and tradeoffs. You will participate in the full software product lifecycle, from development and prototyping to verification and support, collaborating with internal and external stakeholders to ensure project success.
