Do you want to be part of Defying the Conventional?

The Rainforest is Saab's accelerator and lung for transformative innovation, and you can now be a part of it!

We are now expanding our team and are looking for curious and kind-hearted people with extraordinary talent and determination.

The current expedition (which we call our "projects", since they are much higher risk and more explorative than normal projects) that we have embarked on is focused on developing a service-based autonomous airborne system for saving lives where nothing else can, both in a civil security and a military context. We would love to tell you more about what we are working on, but unfortunately for that you need to become part of our team!

To defy the conventional an exceptional work culture is tremendously important. In The Rainforest we work in cross-disciplinary agile autonomous teams where inclusion and diversity is cherished. Everyone is their own informed captain, with extensive freedom and responsibility to act in the best interest of Saab and The Rainforest without lengthy approval processes. But of course, we expect that you actively seek feedback from your peers, because together we are the smartest!

The priorities in The Rainforest are simple:

* Walk the walk over talk the talk
* Trust people over relying on processes
* Radical transparency over withholding information
* Long-term success over short-term solutions
* Build super teams over heroes flying solo
* 90% in a day over 99% in a year.
