Saab Australia Graduate Stories

Don’t focus on the grades, focus on understanding the content and its practical relevance (and the grades will come with it).

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

It is very satisfying to be able to come up with a creative solution to the technical challenges we have at work and to see the results we create being implemented in real deployable software.
