As an Advanced Software Engineer in our team, you will work with complex naval defense systems, take ownership of key software components, and grow your expertise alongside a highly skilled and supportive team. Come and join us!

We are facing an exciting future with considerable growth and demanding changes. We continue to evolve our advanced technologies and mission critical solutions for the defense and aerospace industry to deliver real-world solutions that matter to the security of people on land, at sea and in the air.

Your role as part of the team

As our new Advanced Software Engineer, you will play an important role in developing and enhancing advanced Multi Domain Systems for naval platforms.

  • Act as a technical sparring partner and subject-matter contributor when defining, planning, and scoping new solutions and features
  • Occasionally support testing and validation activities at customer sites, including on board naval vessels.

Bring your expertise into play

To thrive in this role, we imagine that you bring some of the following qualifications:

• • Professional experience in software development, preferably using Java and object-oriented design principles such as SOLID
  • Experience working across multiple stages of the software development lifecycle, from design and implementation to testing and verification
