We are looking for a project manager in the area of Navigation. The project manager role can vary and be both technical and coordinating, with different levels of complexity and several internal and external interfaces.

The Navigation area in Gripen is responsible for delivering fundamental data on speed, altitude, attitude, and position to the aircraft system and encompasses the entire chain of hardware and software from various sensors to devices and software for data processing. The functional area also includes various aids for landing. We operate throughout the aircraft's entire lifecycle, both in functional development and maintenance, to ensure good availability and low operational costs for the aircraft fleet. The area faces exciting challenges, with an influx of activities, and therefore has a need to grow.
