Or are you a system engineer with a focus on IT systems or computer platforms? Then you will recognize what we do. At Saab Surveillance's Computer Platform HW section, you will work with skilled colleagues to develop, specify and verify hardware solutions for operator stations and information systems – in some of Sweden's most high-tech radar and surveillance systems.
