UFORCE exists to make aggression unaffordable.

Founded in Ukraine and headquartered in London, UFORCE is a defence-technology company with operations across Europe, the United States and Asia.

UFORCE builds uncrewed vessels, ground robotics and aircraft, autonomy software, and the command-and-control layer that operates them together. Each platform is deployable on its own, and stronger as part of the system. Its product lines include the MAGURA family of uncrewed surface vessels, the NEMESIS family of strike platforms, the LIUT family of ground robotic platforms, and counter-UAS systems.

About the role

UFORCE has developed and fielded autonomous systems at exceptional speed in response to real operational demand. As we scale across products, markets, customers, and operating locations, we are looking for a Chief Product Officer to own our global product direction and act as the hands-on integrator across strategic R&D, engineering, manufacturing, operations, customers, Ukraine, and Global markets.

This is not a conventional, process-led CPO role. You will develop deep first-hand familiarity with our uncrewed systems and C2 capabilities and spend meaningful time with products, engineers, factories, customers, operators, and deployed teams. You will maintain real-time visibility across our most important product and programme activity, reconcile differing Ukraine and Global priorities, and personally intervene when critical initiatives are blocked.

You will bring clarity and speed without creating an additional layer between users and builders. You will help UFORCE decide what should remain common across markets, what should intentionally diverge, and how shared engineering and manufacturing capacity should be allocated. You will partner closely with our Hardware and Software CTOs, Manufacturing, Delivery, and commercial leaders while preserving clear functional ownership.

The role is based in London and reports directly to our CEO.

What you'll do

Own UFORCE’s product vision, strategy, portfolio direction, and product-level priorities across Ukraine and Global markets.

Develop deep, first-hand familiarity with our UxV and C2 capabilities, including their performance, limitations, maturity, configurations, technical dependencies, production constraints, customer commitments, and operational use.

Maintain a live, company-wide view of material strategic R&D, product development, customer-specific work, engineering commitments, manufacturing activity, deployments, dependencies, blockers, and accountable owners.

Act as the hands-on integrator across Product, Hardware Engineering, Software Engineering, Manufacturing, Delivery, Commercial, customers, and operators.

Make explicit decisions about which capabilities should be common across markets, which should intentionally diverge, and how resources should be allocated when priorities compete.

Translate operational evidence, customer opportunities, technical constraints, manufacturing realities, and commercial context into rapid product and investment decisions.

Evaluate customer-specific development based on its mission impact, strategic value, commercial logic, resource demand, reuse potential, configuration impact, and lifecycle requirements.

Connect strategic R&D to clear product intent, operational or market hypotheses, transition paths, and stopping conditions.

Establish lightweight visibility, decision, and escalation mechanisms that improve execution speed without introducing unnecessary process or reporting overhead.

Partner with Engineering, Manufacturing, Delivery, customers, and operators to define intended outcomes and acceptance criteria while keeping requirements development collaborative and iterative.

Improve product and programme control across hardware and software, including configuration visibility, versioning, dependencies, readiness, and lifecycle decisions.

Engage directly in relevant customer meetings, demonstrations, trials, testing, deployments, factory activity, and field operations.
