About the role
About the role
At Saab Australia, we design, integrate and sustain advanced defence systems that support Australia’s sovereign capability and national security.
This is not a conventional testing role. It’s an opportunity to validate and assure the performance of a mission-critical Combat Management System used in complex naval environments. We’re looking for a Systems Engineer / Verification Engineer who understands that verification is more than defect detection—it’s about building confidence in system capability, safety, and operational readiness.
You will play a key role in ensuring that the 9LV Combat Management System meets stringent Defence standards across functionality, safety, security, and performance.
We work in a fast-paced, demanding, challenging as well as time sensitive environment; we’re diverse, global, resilient, adaptable and agile, therefore the ability to solve problems is critical.
Along with satisfaction & rewards that comes with working for a global defence company, you can expect a generous salary, a range of outstanding benefits & an inclusive working environment.
This position also offers Flexible working options and a 9-Day Fortnight
The Opportunity
As part of a highly capable engineering team, you will lead and contribute to Verification & Validation (V&V) activities across incremental software releases and integrated system baselines.
You’ll operate across both formal and informal testing environments, contributing to early defect detection during development while also supporting structured verification activities that produce Objective Quality Evidence (OQE) required for acceptance and certification.
This role sits at the intersection of systems engineering, software integration, and operational capability, requiring both technical rigour and a strong understanding of real-world application
Key Responsibilities:
Define verification strategies, including coverage targets, traceability, test levels, and entry/exit criteria
Review system and software requirements to ensure clarity, completeness, and testability
Develop a deep technical understanding of systems under test and their operational context
