Who are we:  

At ADB SAFEGATE, we are a global company spanning over 48 offices and 1400 employees at the forefront of revolutionizing aviation technology.

The Opportunity:  

Air traffic is doubling every 15 years growing at a rate of 4.4% annually. There is a 50% capacity shortage expected by 2035 in half of the worlds airports if nothing changes, ultimately meaning that 237 mn passengers will not be able to fly in 2035.

We want to see our people grow, that is why we believe in accountability and trust. We are a company where you have a voice to shape the future of our products and roadmaps to directly impact the global aviation industry.  

The Team:  

We are a team of highly skilled and social people sitting together in our Malmö office, but also collaborating with other offices in Europe. We primarily work on the Safedock AVDGS system and our Intelligent AiPRON suite of products.  

We are now looking to add like-minded, driven individuals with diverse software development experience to our team to help us take the next steps in our Airside 4.0 strategy.
