Full Job Description
Swarmer develops software that makes drones autonomous and allows them to operate together, in large, coordinated teams — no pilots needed.

WHAT YOU WILL DO: - Calculate and process employee payroll, including vacations, sick leave, business trips, bonuses, advances, compensation payments, and other employee-related payments in compliance with Ukrainian legislation. - Process and record company payments, including payments to vendors, contractors, and employees, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and timely execution. - Assist the HR Specialist with preparing documentation related to vacations, sick leave, bu
