IT/Utvecklingsroller | Product Tech | SAAB flera orter

Want to influence the bigger picture? At Saab, you can realize amazing innovations that keep people and societies safe. Together, we can truly make an impact - and your part matters.

Common Tech is the engine behind Saab's technological transformation - building the shared platforms, capabilities, and foundations that enable the entire organization to scale, innovate, and deliver at speed.

Within this ecosystem, Product Tech plays a unique role - bridging the gap between technology and real-world impact. It ensures that the capabilities built in Common Tech are not just available - but adopted, integrated, and used where it matters most: in real products, by real teams. A particular focus lies on AI-based solutions that will be integrated into Saab's product portfolio and used broadly across the organization. What you help create in Product Tech has direct impact across multiple products, teams and business areas. Product Tech is where Saab's future technology is shaped - and where it is brought into real use across the whole organization.

Roles at Saab | Stockholm, Linköping, Göteborg

Forward Deployed Engineer
Systems Engineer - Platform & Problem Solving

Do you want to help bridge the gap between today and the future - and play a key role in driving Saab's digital transformation? This is not a traditional developer role. It's a role for curious minds who enjoy variety, creativity and deep technical thinking.

Your role
We are now looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer to join Product Tech at Saab. You will play a key role in both strategic important digitalization initiatives and Forward Deployed engagements, helping accelerate innovation and enable real impact across the organization.

This role sits at the heart of Saab's digital strategy execution model, where different types of engagements come together:

• Strategic, business-critical initiatives focused on developing new solutions and pushing the boundaries of current capabilities
• High-impact efforts where you enable teams adopt and implement modern technologies, platforms, and ways of working in real product environments

As a Forward Deployed Engineer you will operate across both - building new capabilities while also ensuring they are successfully deployed, adopted, and used in practice.

What you'll do

• Work hands-on with complex technical problems across different product areas
• Build and improve shared platforms and components used throughout Saab
• Explore and apply technologies like AI, cloud, edge computing and real-time systems
• Collaborate with engineers, architects and domain experts
• Turn ambiguous challenges into clear, elegant solutions
• Influence technical direction and long-term platform strategy

About you
You're someone who enjoys understanding how things work - and how they could work better. You learn quickly, think in systems and like solving problems that don't have obvious answers. Your background might be in software development, systems engineering, data engineering, research engineering or something else entirely. What matters is how you think.

You bring

• Minimum 2 years of experience in a similar role
• Strong programming ability (language doesn't matter - thinking does)
• Hands-on use of AI to solve technical problems
• Curiosity and a desire to explore new technologies
• Ability to break down complex problems
• A collaborative mindset and willingness to share knowledge
• Experience from building or working with technical systems

Bonus if you have

• Experience with AI/ML, cloud, edge or distributed systems
• Interest in platform engineering or architecture
• Experience from real-time or safety-critical environments

Some of our roles require security clearance under Swedish security protection legislation. For roles where Saab has requirements for security classification, this may in some cases entail requirements for a certain citizenship.
