What we do (and why it matters):

Swarmer is Ukraine's leading company in the field of collaborative swarm autonomy, recognized for creating advanced dual-use AI solutions for the defense sector.

Tested in Ukrainian context, our unique software enables drone swarms to autonomously execute complex missions, from monitoring critical infrastructure to protecting both civilian and military assets, translating high-level objectives into highly coordinated actions.

Our next milestone: scalable autonomy of up to 690 drones under the effective control of a single operator.

Let the drones do it!

What we're looking for:

• Proven experience in software and hardware QA, with a focus on complex systems, preferably involving UAVs, IoT or Embedded technologies.

• Solid understanding of testing principles and best practices for any of the mentioned domains.

• Experience with test automation tools and Python including automation frameworks: Pytest & Playwright.

• Implement automated solutions when it is needed, perform manual tests when there is a value.

• Experience with CI/CD pipelines.

• Understanding and experience with Network solutions and Network protocols. Preferably lower OSI levels.

• Good problems and issues troubleshooting skills.

• Eagerness to work in a startup environment, balancing the agility of decisions with the need to ensure the best outcomes.

• Hands-on, detail-oriented, and willing to dive deep into problem-solving.

What you'll do:

• Lead the creation and execution of comprehensive test plans and test suits for our software solutions. Build complex test scenarios simulating various operational and edge-case environments.

• Create and improve test automation solution with a focus on scalability and maintainability

• Identify, document, and track software defects using issue-tracking systems.

• Create detailed test data generation and management strategies.

• Implement automated testing frameworks and tools, including software-in-the-loop (SITL) testing, to enhance testing efficiency and early defect detection.

• Ensure we have comprehensive test coverage across web interfaces, backend systems, and drone communication layers.

• Collaborate with engineering teams to identify, document, and resolve software defects.

• Work closely with development, product, and operations teams to ensure quality at every product lifecycle stage.

• Act as the quality advocate within the company, ensuring the best outcomes for our product and users.

• Ensure we have a complete picture of our quality at all times.

• Understand business value from proposed QA processes and use manual, scripting or automated test solutions according to business need.

What you'll get:

• Direct influence on product quality in a high-stakes defense tech environment where your decisions have real-world impact.

• Professional growth through hands-on work with advanced drone systems and exposure to international QA and testing best practices.

• Competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package (insurance, paid sick leave, 20 paid days off per year).

• Advantages of working in the defense sector (reservation and related benefits).

• Flexible remote work options where possible.

Our team is direct, moves fast, and doesn't waste time on performative nonsense. If you want a company with seven layers of approval and endless consensus-building, this isn't it. If you want to do the most important work of your career with people who say what they mean and execute, let's talk.
