Andrew has been a Project Manager at Silentium Defence for over two years. With a young family, Andrew values the flexibility his role provides—working from home when needed, dropping his daughter off at school, and enjoying a healthy work-life balance. Andrew thrives in Silentium’s inclusive, open-door culture, where honesty and a genuine commitment to teamwork are embraced by everyone, from the CEO to the technicians. As part of the newly established SD basketball team, he’s found even more ways to connect beyond the workplace.

Outside of work, she’s happiest by the water, surfing, and soaking up the waves.
OUR MISSION
CREATE A New Dimension of Passive Radar
We’re on a mission to create a new era in object detection, tracking and insight. As the world becomes more complex and we explore new and different domains, access to quality, reliable data is critical for more informed decision-making.
Silentium exists to provide data without compromise, to help our customers better protect what matters – people, property and assets.
We’re doing this with a tight-knit team of highly skilled, collaborative people who are passionate about making a difference on a global scale. Join us in pushing the boundaries of technology and making a meaningful impact.
OUR Values
PURPOSE, PEOPLE, PROFIT
We care about what we do, because what we do matters.
We deliver results as a team and look after our people.
DATA DRIVEN DECISIONS
We believe that real data wins arguments.
We make decisions based on evidence, not assumptions.
INTEGRITY IS OUR CREDIBILITY
We take ownership.
Step up, communicate and deliver—that’s how we operate.

“From the moment I joined Silentium, I felt welcomed and supported. They took the time to make sure I had everything I needed and gave me the space to settle in and find my feet. With a fantastic team around me and all the resources to succeed, I couldn’t have asked for a better start to my journey here.”

“You don’t need a defence background to thrive in this industry. Not every role here is about engineering. As part of the Silentium Finance team, I still feel deeply connected to our mission and the impact we’re making. And the best part? I get to bring my dog to work.”
