Senior Product Manager
What we do (and why it matters):
Swarmer develops software that makes drones autonomous and allows them to operate together, in large teams, without pilots required. Our technology has been battle-tested across 100,000+ combat missions in Ukraine — the world's most intense proving ground for drone warfare. We just closed a $15M Series A (the largest investment in Ukrainian defense tech since the war began) and we're scaling operations to serve NATO-aligned nations.
This isn't theoretical. This is software that's being used right now to save lives and defend democracy.
What we’re looking for:
We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to shape and deliver cutting-edge autonomous defense products that meet real-world operational needs. This role blends strategic product leadership, deep military domain expertise, and hands-on execution in high-stakes environments.

Would be an advantage:

Technical acumen: familiarity with UAVs, autonomous systems, AI solutions, and command & control systems.
What you’ll do:
Customer discovery: deeply research military users, their workflows, and real-world mission scenarios.
Product development: translate operational needs into product specifications, roadmaps, and backlog priorities.
