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.

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.

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

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)

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

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
