UFORCE is a developer and supplier of combat‑proven unmanned systems and integrated command-and-control/autonomy solutions for air, land, and sea operations. Their platforms are presented as battle-tested in Ukraine with thousands of combat missions and validated operational performance; the company emphasizes rapid iteration, sovereign production, and lower-cost deterrence compared with traditional military platforms. Offerings referenced include unmanned air (UAV), land, and sea platforms, C2/autonomy, intercept capabilities, and remote weapon station (RWS) integrations.

📋 Description

• Deploy forward to customer sites, ranges, exercises, and operational environments to prepare, integrate, test, troubleshoot, and sustain UFORCE systems • Lead technical readiness for major exercises, red-team events, and customer contracts, including pre-ship, arrival, pre-mission, and go/no-go gates • Own field incident response: diagnose issues, create minimal reproductions, capture evidence, coordinate fixes, and drive root-cause closure • Build deployment evidence packages, including configuration baselines, network diagrams, spectrum/safety approvals, software versions, test results, and logs • Create and maintain standardized deployment kits, spares packages, images, configs, scripts, and field playbooks • Partner with engineering teams to convert field failures and operator feedback into validated software, autonomy, hardware, network, payload, and process improvements • Maintain customer and internal operating cadence through status updates, risk tracking, decision logs, AARs, and action-item closeout • Help train operators, maintainers, and internal teams so deployments become more repeatable over time

🎯 Requirements

• US citizen • TS/SCI cleared or credibly eligible • Willing to deploy forward for exercises, red-team events, demos, and customer operations • Comfortable working hands-on in austere environments such as shipboard, range, remote, or irregular-hours settings • Deep hands-on experience in at least one relevant technical specialty: systems engineering, network engineering, autonomy, software, electronics, payload integration, or hardware • Experience working with UAS and/or USV systems, or closely related deployed robotics, autonomy, defense, maritime, aerospace, or field-engineered systems • Strong field integration instincts: configuration baselines, build-to-deploy workflows, imaging, version control, automated checks, and release discipline • Practical networking knowledge, including IP planning, routing/switching, RF/spectrum constraints, secure comms basics, logging, and telemetry • Strong troubleshooting toolkit: logs, packet captures, electrical debugging, scripting, automated checks, and disciplined test planning • Ability to operate in environments requiring access control, least privilege, auditability, and sound security posture • Clear communication with customers, operators, engineers, PMs, and executives — especially under time pressure • High ownership, strong judgment, and a bias toward evidence-based execution over hero debugging
