What is it like working in Systematic Defence?

In Defence Tech, every line of code has purpose. It helps protect lives and shape the outcome of critical missions.

For IT professionals, this means building systems that truly matter: platforms that turn data into decisions, code into coordination, and technology into operational advantage.

That’s where Command and Control systems come in - the digital backbone of Defence operations, helping commanders plan, coordinate, and make fast, informed decisions in critical situations. Their ultimate mission is to save lives and bring soldiers home safely.

See how Command and Control technology works in action and how you can build and deploy technology that saves lives.

Rooted in defence - built for critical missions

Systematic’s business is rooted in defence. Precision and thoroughness are deeply ingrained in our work culture because our software can make the difference between life and death.

Our defence solution, SitaWare, is the world’s most widely used command-and-control system.

It is used in military command centres, vehicles, aircraft, and ships, as well as by front-line soldiers.

Several countries also deploy SitaWare for national security and emergency response during joint civil-military operations in the event of natural disasters, health crises, and other large-scale emergencies.

SitaWare also serves as the foundation for our solutions for monitoring and protecting critical infrastructure above and below the sea.
