Segula Technologies chose Melbourne as the site of its headquarters because of the city?s renowned technological universities and industries, existing infrastructure, and local talent base.
The company has already employed several former Holden engineers and is looking to employ more engineers, 3D designers and program managers in the next two to three years, an official press release said.
It has solid experience in large defence and transport infrastructure projects in Australia and is currently working on the Vlocity regional trains and Melbourne light rail expansion.

Segula Technologies Australia Managing Director Asia Pacific Pierre Maciejowski said, ?We are grateful for the support of the Victorian Government, which is a demonstration of its faith in Segula?s ability to grow valuable jobs for Victorian workers. We are excited about our opportunities here in Victoria.?
The Victorian Budget 2021/22 allocated $6 million to give the state?s defence sector a competitive edge.
