Location: UK and KyivMissionEvery month, drones injure and kill thousands of Ukrainians. Munin builds point-defense systems to stop them. Our first product is a hand-launched micro-missile designed to intercept small drones at close range. It is small enough to carry three in a vest and cheap enough for mass deployment. Our goal is to change the battlefield in Ukraine through very high-volume production, then deliver proven systems to NATO.Role summaryWe are hiring a founding computer vision engineer. You will be responsible for pipelines that detect russian drones across battlefield conditions.You will start in the English countryside, living with the team of 6 next to our workshop and test site. After a few months, you will relocate to Kyiv to work directly with the Ukrainian military and scale production using front-line feedback. You will not operate near front-line areas, and you will work from Ukraine only while the security situation remains stable.What you will doOwn the real-time vision system for detecting small drones, working with other CV engineersData collection and pipeline iteration using self-collected and battlefield dataWork with soldiers to define requirementsDeliver perception under tight compute, power, and latency limitsIntegrate perception into guidance and control systemsRequirementsSignificant hands-on experience building deployed computer vision pipelinesYou've shipped systems under time pressureHigh personal drive and tolerance for long, intense work periodsComfortable owning ambiguous problems end-to-endNice to haveStartup experienceExperience with, electronics, firmware, control or mechanical designSerious personal engineering projects outside work or universityMilitary backgroundCredibilityIn four months, we went from concept to a robust missile prototype that is smaller and cheaper than anything comparable, can be fired with one hand, and reliably intercepts FPV drones.Recent work includesWorking with the Ukrainian armed forces to go from pre-idea to warhead design, production, and live-fire testing in 24 hoursCar-mounted missile testing at 200 km/hBuilding an air cannon in two days, then destructively testing 50 missiles to diagnose a hardware issueSix launches in a single day, with design iterations between each launchApplyOur team is from the Special Forces, Stanford, 1X, Imperial College, FLIR, student engineering teams and non-traditional paths. What we share is the ability to build real systems fast, take ownership and work toward a safer Europe.If you want to build something that matters, fill out this form:
