Saab Australia Graduate Stories

The best thing about my job is working on important projects that make a difference to other people’s lives.

More people with diverse perspectives and ways of thinking through problems, increases the likelihood that different solutions can be discussed, and ultimately increases the likelihood that the team can devise the most appropriate solution.

My role is to develop software for Saab’s naval combat management system which is the command and control center of many advanced surface vessels and submarines.

I build software interfaces for equipment that will be mounted on the Royal Australian Navy’s new Offshore Patrol Vessels.

The best way to figure out what a job is actually like is by speaking to people in the field and trying it out yourself.

Work hard, both inside and outside of university. This will set you up well when it comes time for applying for jobs and being able to easily answer interview questions.

I always knew I wanted to create and build things, so decided to pursue engineering at university.

A highlight of my work is having the opportunity to work in a team to solve a problem which is bigger than what I could tackle on my own.
