Job description

Swarmer develops software that makes drones autonomous and allows them to operate together, in large, coordinated teams — no pilots needed. Our technology has been battle-tested in Ukraine— the world’s most intense proving ground for drone warfare.

In March 2026, we became the first Ukrainian defense startup to go public on NASDAQ, following a $15M Series A — the largest investment in a Ukrainian defense tech company since the start of the war.

Working at Swarmer means operating at the intersection of engineering rigor and frontline reality. The problems and environments are complex, and the stakes are very real. We built this software to enable democratic nations to defend themselves.

If you are motivated by building resilient systems that matter and by seeing the direct impact of your work, you’ll find purpose here.

Who we are looking for:

We are seeking an accomplished Talent Sourcer with a gift for uncovering exceptional candidates in technical disciplines and a genuine enthusiasm for sharing knowledge with the team. If you believe that great sourcing is a craft — not merely a LinkedIn search — this role is for you. We welcome candidates based in Ukraine or Poland.

What you’ll do:

  • Proactively source technical candidates through both established and unconventional channels

  • Partner with recruiters to shape sourcing strategy and build a robust, high-quality pipeline for every open role

  • Stay attuned to emerging sourcing trends, while piloting and rolling out new AI-driven tools

  • Craft tailored outreach for each role, designed to resonate with the right candidates

  • Screen candidates and uphold a high standard of communication throughout the process

  • Regularly analyze pipeline metrics and funnel performance, translating insights into concrete recommendations for improvement

  • Maintain and curate the candidate database, ensuring profiles in the ATS remain accurate and complete

  • Contribute beyond sourcing — you will engage in cross-functional projects to elevate the Talent Acquisition function and participate in collaborative knowledge-sharing sessions

You’ll be a good fit if you have:

  • Proven sourcing experience across the Ukrainian AND (EU OR US) market

  • Background sourcing for technical roles (Embedded, Integration Engineer, and similar)

  • Solid technical aptitude, with the ability to grasp and evaluate technical qualifications

  • A knack for unconventional approaches to candidate discovery and the ability to architect effective sourcing strategies

  • Hands-on experience leveraging AI tools, backed by tangible use cases and measurable outcomes

  • An experimental mindset and openness to creative recruiting approaches — or experience partnering with hiring managers who embrace non-traditional talent strategies

  • The ability to thrive in dynamic, fast-paced environments while juggling multiple priorities with ease

  • Strong written and verbal communication, with a talent for networking and building genuine connection with candidates

  • Experience working with ATS platforms (Ashby is a strong plus!)

  • Fluent, polished Ukrainian

  • English proficiency at B2 or above

 

Would be an advantage:

  • Experience with offline sourcing — attending conferences, meetups, and networking events

  • Hands-on experience with Ashby

  • Background in the Defense Tech / MilTech space

  • Experience working within a dynamic startup environment

What you’ll get:

  • A chance to shape the core autonomy and perception systems at the heart of Ukraine’s defense tech ecosystem and its international expansion

  • Direct impact in a high-stakes industry where security decisions carry real-world consequences

  • Professional growth through working with cutting-edge defense technologies and exposure to international security best practices

  • Competitive salary, benefits package (insurance, paid sick leaves, 20 paid days off per year)

  • Benefits of the defense sector (reservation, etc)

✔️ Recruiter Screen → ✔️ Test Task → ✔️ Technical Interview → ✔️ Final Interview →✔️ Background check → ✔️Offer
