Ukraine’s defence tech industry shows no signs of slowing down: startups are closing investment rounds, international players are entering the market, and government institutions are launching new projects to support the sector. All of this is driving demand for specialists across a wide range of roles — from engineers and data experts to managers, marketers, and C-level executives.

Defender Media has compiled a fresh job digest featuring companies and organisations that stood out this week — Frontline Robotics, Quantum Systems Ukraine, “General Cherry”, Zmiyar, Brave1, and others.

This selection is traditionally complemented by opportunities from the section’s partners — BazaIT Defense and CORE Team.
