Project Manager, Soeborg

Would you like to lead complex maritime technology projects that help deliver mission-critical capabilities? In this role, you will drive the successful execution of advanced Command and Control (C2) projects, working closely with customers, shipyards, suppliers, and multidisciplinary teams. Come 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. Therefore, we are looking for a project manager to become part of this journey and contribute to our overall purpose - securing people through advanced technology.

Your role as part of the team

As our new Project Manager, you will take overall responsibility for the progress, financial performance, and delivery of complex maritime technology projects centered around our C2 solutions. You will lead projects ranging from development initiatives and upgrade programs to future new-build and export projects within the maritime domain.

You will become part of a collaborative and highly skilled environment where we develop both people and technology. Working from our Soeborg location, you will lead cross-functional project teams and collaborate closely with national and international customers, shipyards, suppliers, product management, test specialists, and engineering teams. We value curiosity, teamwork, and knowledge sharing, and we care about both the solutions we create and the people behind them.

Technical expertise is important, but your mindset matters just as much. If you are structured, proactive, and comfortable bringing people together around a common goal while navigating complex technical environments, you could be a great addition to our team.

How you will make a meaningful contribution

In this role, you will contribute to a range of tasks across your area of responsibility. Your key responsibilities include:

• • Own the full project lifecycle, including scope, schedule, budget management, risk mitigation, and ongoing Estimate-to-Complete (ETC) follow-up
  • Translate system requirements and customer specifications into structured work packages, epics, user stories, and tasks in collaboration with technical teams
  • Drive progress tracking, estimation, reporting, and stakeholder communication to ensure transparency and successful project execution
  • Act as the primary link between engineering specialists, product management, test organizations, customers, shipyards, and suppliers
  • Lead the transition from Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) through Harbor Acceptance Testing (HAT) and Sea Acceptance Testing (SAT) in close collaboration with customers and shipyards
  • Drive projects involving complex software and hardware development, system integration, sensors, radar, communication protocols, tactical datalinks, and related maritime technologies.

Bring your expertise into play

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

• • Relevant technical education, such as Engineering within software, electronics, mechanics, or a related field, combined with proven project management experience
  • Hands-on experience with agile project management methodologies and Scrum in larger projects or program environments
  • Strong capabilities in requirements decomposition, estimation, and planning from high-level requirements to detailed tasks and deliverables
  • Solid understanding of the interaction between software, hardware, mechanics, sensors, protocols, and complex system integrations
  • Experience working in structured project environments with requirements for traceability, quality assurance, documentation, and stakeholder management
  • Experience with naval architecture or from the shipbuilding industry or maritime projects is an additional benefit but not a requirement.

Most importantly, we believe diverse experiences add value to our team and organization. Therefore, we encourage you to apply even if you do not meet all the above requirements.

As we are an international organization, it is important that you are fluent in English both in writing and verbal at a professional level.
