WHY WE EXIST: Swarmer develops software that makes drones autonomous and allows them to operate together, in large, coordinated teams — no pilots needed. Our technology has been battle-tested in Ukraine— the world’s most intense proving ground for drone warfare. In March 2026, we became the first Ukrainian defense startup to go public on NASDAQ, following a $15M Series A — the largest investment in a Ukrainian defense tech company since the start of the war. Working at Swarmer means operating at the intersection of engineering rigor and frontline reality. The problems and environments are complex, and the stakes are very real. We built this software to enable democratic nations to defend themselves. If you are motivated by building resilient systems that matter and by seeing the direct impact of your work, you’ll find purpose here. WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR: We’re looking for a detail-oriented and motivated Accounts Payable Specialist to support AP operations across our U.S., Estonia, and Poland entities, while collaborating with our international teams. This role is a great opportunity for someone early in their accounting career who is eager to learn and grow in a fast-paced, global environment. The AP Specialist will assist with invoice processing, vendor payments, employee reimbursements, and maintaining accurate financial records across multiple entities and currencies. This role will also support process improvements and help the team adapt to evolving systems and workflows.
