with operations across Europe, the United States and Asia.\n\nUFORCE builds uncrewed vessels, ground robotics and aircraft, autonomy software, and the command-and-control layer that operates them together. Each platform is deployable on its own, and stronger as part of the system. Its product lines include the MAGURA family of uncrewed surface vessels, the NEMESIS family of strike platforms, the LIUT family of ground robotic platforms, and counter-UAS systems.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE ROLE\n\nThe Staff Engineer, AI / ML — Self-Serve Toolchain will build the end-to-end system that lets customers adapt UFORCE models on their own private data without exposing that data to us.\n\nThis role spans data processing, foundation-model-assisted labeling, human-in-the-loop QA, active learning, training, evaluation, and model promotion. You will turn an in-flight principal-led capability into a repeatable toolchain that non-expert customers can run safely on-site.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU’LL DO\n\n \n\n - Own the ML adaptation pipeline from raw customer data to trained, evaluated, deployable models.\n\n - Build foundation-model-assisted labeling workflows using tools such as SAM-2, Grounding DINO, open-vocabulary models, LLM steering, and human review.\n\n - Design self-serve operator workflows using yes/no/maybe feedback and natural-language corrections.\n\n - Create versioned datasets with lineage, data cards, label provenance, class distributions, and known gaps.\n\n - Build QA methods that catch systematic pseudo-label errors, missing annotations, and long-tail data gaps.\n\n - Develop active-learning loops that prioritize the highest-value frames for limited operator review.\n\n - Build reproducible train/eval pipelines with experiment tracking, model packaging, and promotion gates.\n\n - Design evaluation around held-out anchor sets, leakage prevention, baselines, slice metrics, and automated approve/reject decisions.\n\n - Package the toolchain for on-prem, air-gapped, regulated, or customer-held environments.\n\n - Close the field-failure loop by feeding live failures back into the next tune cycle.\n\n - Lead and grow a small specialist team around curation, auto-labeling, deployment, and onboarding.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE\n\n \n\n - Customers can run a full adaptation cycle without engineer intervention.\n\n - Customer data stays inside the customer boundary.\n\n - The system produces trusted datasets with clear provenance and quality signals.\n\n - Pseudo-label quality is measured and systematic errors are caught early.\n\n - The promotion gate can approve or reject models based on evidence, not intuition.\n\n - Evaluation is protected by anchor sets, leakage controls, slice metrics, and baseline comparisons.\n\n - Field failures become reproducible inputs to the next training cycle.\n\n - Synthetic data is used only when it proves value against real held-out data.\n\n - The toolchain becomes a repeatable capability supported by a small, ramped team.\n\n\n\n\nREQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS \n\n \n\n - 5+ years building production ML, AI, or computer-vision systems.\n\n - Strong Python and PyTorch.\n\n - Experience owning ML data pipelines, training pipelines, or evaluation infrastructure.\n\n - Deep CV data experience: detection, segmentation, annotation taxonomies, dataset curation, and data quality.\n\n - Hands-on experience with model-in-the-loop or foundation-model-assisted labeling.\n\n - Familiarity with tools such as SAM-2, Grounding DINO, FiftyOne, and annotation platforms.\n\n - Strong understanding of evaluation: held-out sets, leakage prevention, baselines, slice metrics, and promotion gates.\n\n -

Your job is to make it all work on the ground — and to land global people cycles locally with managers who have a production line to run.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Complete payroll and timekeeping setup for the site — payroll tool configuration, timekeeping system, UI registration and tax liabilities — with our Senior Payroll Specialist, validated before the first employee is paid.\n\n - Independently run accurate, on-time payroll for hourly and salaried employees, including overtime, shift differentials and off-cycle corrections.\n\n - Prepare payroll reporting on cadence, keep payroll operations documented, and support Finance through audit.\n\n - Own recurring compliance reporting and filings: payroll tax, wage and hour, I-9 and E-Verify, exempt vs. non-exempt classification, labor-law postings and record retention.\n\n - Run onboarding end to end in the HRIS — paperwork, verification, benefits enrollment, training assignment and orientation — for both hourly and salaried hires.\n\n - Maintain the HRIS and personnel files as an accurate, compliant, audit-ready system of record.\n\n - Coordinate benefits vendors and brokers on enrollment, eligibility, open enrollment, renewal and ACA reporting, and flag where the offer isn't landing for the hourly population.\n\n - Manage training assignments and track completion.\n\n - Act as the day-to-day point of contact for employee HR and payroll queries at the site, against clear service standards.\n\n - Land global people cycles locally — performance and probation reviews, engagement survey, people comms — briefing managers, running local logistics, chasing completion and feeding issues back to global People.\n\n\n\n\nREQUIRED SKILLS\n\n - Independent, end-to-end ownership of US payroll for both hourly and salaried employees, including timekeeping, overtime and corrections.\n\n - Strong US employment compliance and reporting: federal and state filings, wage and hour, I-9, exempt vs. non-exempt classification and record-keeping.\n\n - Hands-on HRIS administration (Rippling, ADP, Paylocity, BambooHR, UKG, Workday or similar), with responsibility for data integrity and audit-readiness.\n\n - Experience standing up HR at a new or greenfield US site, or transitioning a company off a PEO into in-house payroll and HR.\n\n - Manufacturing, plant, warehouse or other industrial HR experience with a significant hourly population — ideally in cleared-facility or defense manufacturing.\n\n - Comfort operating as the sole on-site HR person: self-directed, organized under ambiguity, leaves clean and auditable records.\n\n\n\n\nNICE TO HAVE\n\n - Federal contractor environment: E-Verify, OFCCP, or export-control-adjacent HR experience.\n\n - Direct experience registering and running payroll and tax in multiple states.\n\n - Benefits administration depth: open enrollment, carrier and broker coordination, ACA.\n\n - LMS or training program administration.\n\n - Experience delivering centrally designed people processes with frontline managers.\n\n - SHRM-CP / SHRM-SCP, PHR / SPHR, FPC or CPP certification.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe nature of combat has changed.\n\nTomorrow’s battlefield success depends on autonomy, speed, and adaptability.\n\nAnd UFORCE is ready.\n\nAre You?"},{"id":"72899be5-6d17-4bde-a3d8-8bc938237535","title":"Lead Recruiter","department":"People","team":"Talent","employmentType":"FullTime","location":"United States | Remote","secondaryLocations":[],"publishedAt":"2026-09-01T01:16:01.498+00:00","isListed":true,"isRemote":true,"workplaceType":"Remote","address":{"postalAddress":{"addressCountry":"United States"}},"jobUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/uforce/72899be5-6d17-4bde-a3d8-8bc938237535","applyUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/uforce/72899be5-6d17-4bde-a3d8-8bc938237535/application","descriptionHtml":"<p style=\"min-height:1.5em\">UFORCE exists to make aggression unaffordable.<br /><br />Founded in Ukraine and headquartered in London, UFORCE is a defence-technology company with operations across Europe, the United States and Asia.<br /><br />UFORCE builds uncrewed vessels, ground robotics and aircraft, autonomy software, and the command-and-control layer that operates them together.

comfortable aligning stakeholders on architecture decisions.\n\n\n\n\nNICE TO HAVE\n\n• Experience building platform foundations for multi-service environments (shared libraries/SDKs, service templates, internal platforms). \n\n• Experience with multi-tenant systems, tenant lifecycle management, and environment provisioning patterns. \n\n• Experience with distributed systems reliability patterns (idempotency, retries, transactional workflows, consistency trade-offs). \n\n• Experience with performance engineering (profiling, load testing, latency budgets) and cost-aware backend optimization. \n\n• Experience in defence tech / C2/C4ISR / tactical systems, constrained deployments, or regulated/on-prem environments.\n\n\n\nThe nature of combat has changed.\n\nTomorrow’s battlefield success depends on autonomy, speed, and adaptability.\n\nAnd UFORCE is ready.\n\nAre You?"},{"id":"7d712fb8-5276-42ef-ab34-c3a2c2128ea1","title":"Forward Deployed Engineer","department":"Business Development","team":"Delivery","employmentType":"FullTime","location":"United Kingdom | Remote","secondaryLocations":[],"publishedAt":"2026-09-22T08:16:59.189+00:00","isListed":true,"isRemote":true,"workplaceType":"Hybrid","address":{"postalAddress":{"addressCountry":"United Kingdom","addressLocality":""}},"jobUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/uforce/7d712fb8-5276-42ef-ab34-c3a2c2128ea1","applyUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/uforce/7d712fb8-5276-42ef-ab34-c3a2c2128ea1/application","descriptionHtml":"<p style=\"min-height:1.5em\">UFORCE exists to make aggression unaffordable.<br /><br />Founded in Ukraine and headquartered in London, UFORCE is a defence-technology company with operations across Europe, the United States and Asia.<br /><br />UFORCE builds uncrewed vessels, ground robotics and aircraft, autonomy software, and the command-and-control layer that operates them together.

unaffordable.\n\nFounded in Ukraine and headquartered in London, UFORCE is a defence-technology company with operations across Europe, the United States and Asia.\n\nUFORCE builds uncrewed vessels, ground robotics and aircraft, autonomy software, and the command-and-control layer that operates them together. Each platform is deployable on its own, and stronger as part of the system. Its product lines include the MAGURA family of uncrewed surface vessels, the NEMESIS family of strike platforms, the LIUT family of ground robotic platforms, and counter-UAS systems.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE ROLE\n\nUFORCE is hiring a Head of Sales, DHS & Federal to build a funded, repeatable customer base for our unmanned maritime systems across DHS and the broader federal civilian community.\n\nYou'll own a distinct federal civilian sales motion—from identifying mission problems and building customer relationships to securing funding, winning contracts, and driving sustained operational adoption. Your customers will include USCG, CBP / Air and Marine Operations, DHS Science and Technology, and FEMA, alongside adjacent agencies such as NOAA, USACE, DOJ / DEA, and State / INL.\n\nThis role is about creating demand, not simply responding to RFPs. You'll work with operators, program offices, funding owners, and contracting teams to develop use cases in port and coastal security, maritime interdiction, border surveillance, search and rescue support, counter-narcotics, maritime domain awareness, and disaster response—and turn successful pilots into recurring programs.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Deliver revenue: Identify, shape, and capture $10M+ in DHS and federal civilian revenue within your first 18 months.\n\n - Build mission-owner relationships: Establish working access across at least three DHS or federal civilian mission owners, with named sponsors, documented needs, and credible funding paths.\n\n - Develop operational use cases: Validate at least three use cases with operational sponsors, clearly defining the mission problem, funding owner, acquisition route, and evidence needed to move forward.\n\n - Win initial awards: Secure at least two awards or funded pilots through appropriate civilian acquisition pathways, with a clear plan for follow-on purchases.\n\n - Convert pilots into programs: Turn at least one funded pilot into recurring or programmatic funding, building a repeatable transition model.\n\n - Create practical routes to contract: Secure or confirm access to relevant schedules, governmentwide vehicles, DHS IDIQs, OTA consortia, and qualified partners or resellers.\n\n - Build a disciplined pipeline: Map pursuits to agency budget cycles and execution-year funding, maintain evidence-based capture gates, and forecast within +/- 15%.\n\n - Lead competitive capture: Develop win themes, competitor assessments, price-to-win strategies, and executable proposal plans, targeting a 30%+ win rate on competed federal civilian bids.\n\n - Keep pursuits compliant: Partner with Contracts and Legal to address registration, procurement, ethics, data-handling, and relevant maritime operating requirements before offers.\n\n - Drive adoption and follow-on growth: Coordinate handoffs to Product and Delivery, track operational use and mission outcomes, and resolve risks that could prevent sustained customer adoption.\n\n\nREQUIRED SKILLS\n\n - Demonstrated success winning meaningful revenue from DHS or comparable federal civilian agencies, with the ability to explain your contribution from opportunity shaping through award and adoption.\n\n - Strong understanding of federal civilian buying behavior, including how operational needs become funded requirements and how pilots transition into recurring purchases.\n\n - Relevant access to federal civilian operators, requirements owners, program offices, and contracting activities—and the ability to establish new relationships independently.\n\n - Ability to earn operator trust and translate maritime law enforcement, search and rescue, security, or emergency response needs into credible use cases and demonstration plans.\n\n - Applied knowledge of civilian budget cycles, appropriations, agency operating plans, and execution-year funding.\n\n - Fluency in federal acquisition strategies, including FAR-based competition, schedules, IDIQs, alternative pathways, and partner channels.\n\n - Disciplined capture and proposal leadership, including qualification gates, customer-backed win themes, competitor analysis, pricing strategy, compliance checks, and submission readiness.\n\n - Strong pipeline management and evidence-based forecasting skills.\n\n - Sound commercial judgment and ethical instincts, including knowing when to decline an opportunity because of funding, compliance, differentiation, or delivery risk.\n\n - Ability to work across sales, government relations, contracts, product, and delivery teams while staying accountable for post-award customer outcomes.\n\n\nNICE TO HAVE\n\n - Direct sales experience with USCG, CBP / AMO, DHS S&T / SVIP, or FEMA.\n\n - Experience selling unmanned maritime systems or related maritime, autonomy, surveillance, or mission technology.\n\n - A track record of opening a new agency or mission area where no formal requirement existed.\n\n - Experience converting S&T, SVIP, SBIR, OTA, or other pilot funding into recurring operational purchases.\n\n - Established relationships with schedule holders, integrators, resellers, or OTA consortia serving federal civilian customers.\n\n - Familiarity with Section 889, federal data-handling expectations, Jones Act considerations, and USCG operating and safety requirements.\n\n - Experience coordinating civilian and DoD pursuits in overlapping mission areas, or managing adoption metrics, customer references, and CPARS risk.\n\n\n\nThe nature of combat has changed.\n\nTomorrow’s battlefield success depends on autonomy, speed, and adaptability.\n\nAnd UFORCE is ready.\n\nAre You?"},{"id":"20285631-01fe-44f3-a3e5-58f4e3d4f943","title":"Head of Sales, USAF & Commercial","department":"Business Development","team":"Sales","employmentType":"FullTime","location":"United States | Remote","secondaryLocations":[],"publishedAt":"2026-10-15T16:27:19.660+00:00","isListed":true,"isRemote":true,"workplaceType":"Remote","address":{"postalAddress":{"addressCountry":"United States"}},"jobUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/uforce/20285631-01fe-44f3-a3e5-58f4e3d4f943","applyUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/uforce/20285631-01fe-44f3-a3e5-58f4e3d4f943/application","descriptionHtml":"<p style=\"min-height:1.5em\">UFORCE exists to make aggression unaffordable.<br /><br />Founded in Ukraine and headquartered in London, UFORCE is a defence-technology company with operations across Europe, the United States and Asia.<br /><br />UFORCE builds uncrewed vessels, ground robotics and aircraft, autonomy software, and the command-and-control layer that operates them together.

Its product lines include the MAGURA family of uncrewed surface vessels, the NEMESIS family of strike platforms, the LIUT family of ground robotic platforms, and counter-UAS systems.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE ROLE\n\nUFORCE is looking for a Senior Engineer to help build the software that makes uncrewed vehicle (UxV) operations more reliable, repeatable, and scalable. You’ll develop capabilities across the UFORCE C2/C4ISR stack, with a focus on automating operational workflows, improving mission readiness, and reducing the burden on operators and pilots.\n\nYou’ll combine hands-on backend and frontend engineering with end-to-end product ownership: understanding operational needs, designing solutions, shipping capabilities, and validating them with real-world crews. You’ll work closely with operators, product teams, and engineers across systems, building software that remains usable in air-gapped environments, over intermittent connections, and with limited access to engineering support.\n\n\nWHAT YOU’LL DO\n\n - Build and improve pre-flight and post-flight workflows, including automated checks, configuration, mission package handling, log capture, and post-mission data synchronization.\n\n - Develop operator-facing interfaces and guardrails that make routine workflows intuitive, consistent, and less dependent on engineering intervention.\n\n - Standardize configuration and mission setup patterns to reduce manual work and variation between crews and platforms.\n\n - Build operational analytics that help teams understand readiness, workflow performance, turnaround time, and the impact of connectivity constraints.\n\n - Work directly with operators to identify friction, translate field feedback into requirements, and validate improvements in real operational workflows.\n\n - Design and maintain APIs, schemas, and event models that enable reliable integrations and parallel development across teams.\n\n - Own delivery from discovery and technical design through implementation, rollout, observability, and iteration.\n\n - Make architectural trade-offs explicit, balancing product needs with compatibility, deployment constraints, and supportability in the field.\n\n - Create concise runbooks, checklists, and troubleshooting guidance that help crews operate independently and reduce avoidable errors.\n\n - Unblock teammates and partner teams through clear interfaces, ownership boundaries, and practical engineering standards.\n\n\nREQUIRED SKILLS\n\n - 6+ years of backend or full-stack engineering experience delivering production systems.\n\n - Strong hands-on experience with Node.js and React in production environments.\n\n - A product-focused approach: you understand user needs and turn complex workflows into practical, usable software.\n\n - Experience building and operating API-first services, including versioning, backward compatibility, and contract-driven development.\n\n - Practical experience with Docker and Kubernetes, including deployments, debugging, and operational monitoring.\n\n - Strong end-to-end engineering ownership, from discovery and technical design to rollout and continuous improvement.\n\n - Ability to work closely with users, translate operational feedback into technical requirements, and validate whether a solution delivers the intended outcome.\n\n - Clear written and verbal communication, particularly when explaining interfaces, constraints, and technical trade-offs across teams.\n\n - A practical approach to debugging and reliability, supported by useful telemetry, clear documentation, and follow-through.\n\n\nWHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE\n\n - Key pre-flight and post-flight workflows are automated, reducing manual steps and reliance on tribal knowledge.\n\n - Mission readiness and turnaround time improve, with clear before-and-after measurements.\n\n - Operators can complete routine configuration and mission setup independently, using consistent workflows and practical guardrails.\n\n - Teams have reliable operational data and review workflows to identify bottlenecks and prioritize improvements.\n\n - Shared APIs, schemas, and event models reduce integration friction and enable teams to develop in parallel.\n\n - Delivered capabilities work in real field conditions and are supported by useful telemetry, concise runbooks, and clear ownership.\n\n\n\nThe nature of combat has changed.\n\nTomorrow’s battlefield success depends on autonomy, speed, and adaptability.\n\nAnd UFORCE is ready.\n\nAre You?"},{"id":"e2e93fe2-3a2a-4a67-b2d8-c36cfd5f9b0b","title":"Product Manager UA","department":"Software","team":"Software","employmentType":"FullTime","location":"Ukraine - Kyiv","secondaryLocations":[],"publishedAt":"2026-10-28T21:52:44.753+00:00","isListed":true,"isRemote":false,"workplaceType":"OnSite","address":{"postalAddress":{"addressRegion":"Kyiv","addressCountry":"Ukraine","addressLocality":"Kyiv"}},"jobUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/uforce/e2e93fe2-3a2a-4a67-b2d8-c36cfd5f9b0b","applyUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/uforce/e2e93fe2-3a2a-4a67-b2d8-c36cfd5f9b0b/application","descriptionHtml":"<p style=\"min-height:1.5em\">UFORCE exists to make aggression unaffordable.<br /><br />Founded in Ukraine and headquartered in London, UFORCE is a defence-technology company with operations across Europe, the United States and Asia.<br /><br />UFORCE builds uncrewed vessels, ground robotics and aircraft, autonomy software, and the command-and-control layer that operates them together.

You'll work closely with Sales to pressure-test the pipeline and with Finance and leadership to make sure everyone is operating from one shared number.\n\nWith that forecast in hand, you will map incoming demand against available capacity at each site and get ahead of it. For example, if the forecast shows an order for 12 boats landing in the next two months, you'll be the one flagging it early, determining where it should be built, and working with the Portugal team (or whichever site is best placed) to plan materials, labor, and schedule well before the PO arrives. You'll identify capacity gaps and bottlenecks across the network, recommend where to load or shift work between sites, and help inform where and when we need to add capacity as the US footprint grows.\n\nOver time, you'll build the S&OP process itself: the regular forecast and capacity review rhythm, the planning tools and dashboards that support it, and the metrics (forecast accuracy, capacity utilization, on-time delivery) that tell us whether it is working.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\nWe're looking for someone with experience in demand planning, S&OP, or production planning at a hardware or manufacturing company, ideally one that scaled quickly across multiple sites. You're comfortable moving between a sales pipeline and a factory floor schedule, you're strong with data and forecasting models, and you can turn an uncertain forecast into clear, early decisions that site teams can act on. You communicate well across functions and time zones, and you're energized by building a process from the ground up rather than inheriting one. Experience in high-growth environments (automotive, aerospace, defense, robotics, or similar) is a strong plus, as is comfort with travel between our sites.\n\n\n\nThe nature of combat has changed.\n\nTomorrow’s battlefield success depends on autonomy, speed, and adaptability.\n\nAnd UFORCE is ready.\n\nAre You?"},{"id":"00057941-3e10-4966-8442-8461f190a8b8","title":"UAV Trainer","department":"Business Development","team":"Delivery","employmentType":"FullTime","location":"United States | Remote","secondaryLocations":[],"publishedAt":"2026-10-30T19:32:37.551+00:00","isListed":true,"isRemote":true,"workplaceType":"Remote","address":{"postalAddress":{"addressCountry":"United States"}},"jobUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/uforce/00057941-3e10-4966-8442-8461f190a8b8","applyUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/uforce/00057941-3e10-4966-8442-8461f190a8b8/application","descriptionHtml":"<p style=\"min-height:1.5em\">UFORCE exists to make aggression unaffordable.<br /><br />Founded in Ukraine and headquartered in London, UFORCE is a defence-technology company with operations across Europe, the United States and Asia.<br /><br />UFORCE builds uncrewed vessels, ground robotics and aircraft, autonomy software, and the command-and-control layer that operates them together.
