Role overview

Lead engineering excellence for Occam Industries, a critical defense tech company building AI for warfighters. This role demands ensuring stable, predictable, and trusted releases where precision is paramount. You'll manage processes, drive timely delivery, and build high-performing teams across Europe, directly impacting global security and saving lives.

SoftwareLondon, United Kingdom

We are a defence company which exists to make sure that Europe is adequately defended in a time of war. We are highly mission driven, and are actively involved with Ukrainian combat troops, fighting on the front line.

We believe that only products which are USED, have VALUE. We forward deploy engineers, researchers and our leaders to ensure that we understand the needs of warfighters, to give them access to the best tech and tooling they need to win.

Our core product is OCCAM-X, an AI pilot which Ukraine uses to automate segments of the frontline, saving the lives of our soldiers who no longer need to directly engage in combat. OCCAM-X is in the process of being adopted by NATO as the core of Europe's drone wall.

What you will do

  • Ensure robust, scalable engineering processes are maintained across our Ukrainian core product team.
  • Drive the hiring, staffing, and establishment of product and Go-To-Market teams across NATO member states.
  • Manage active roadmaps, timelines, and effectively communicate trade-offs and strategic compromises to leadership.

Who this is a fit for

  • Proven experience managing engineering teams delivering mission-critical, high-reliability software products.
  • Demonstrated ability to establish and scale engineering processes in complex, geographically distributed environments.
  • Strong leadership in hiring, team building, and strategic communication with stakeholders and senior leadership.

Why this role is remarkable

  • Directly impact global security by delivering life-critical AI technology to warfighters, where reliability is non-negotiable.
  • Lead and scale engineering operations across a distributed team, including a core product team in Ukraine, addressing unique geopolitical challenges.
  • Shape the future of a defense tech innovator, building out product and GTM teams across NATO member states with significant growth potential.
