USV Trainer

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.

UFORCE is looking for a USV Trainer to help customers, partners, and internal field teams operate unmanned surface vessels safely and confidently. You’ll deliver practical training on our USV’s, helping learners build the skills to operate, maintain, launch, and recover the systems.

Working within the USV Training Lead’s approved program, you’ll teach in classrooms, simulators, at docks, and on the water. Your impact will be measured by demonstrated student proficiency, safe operations, and reliable qualification records-not simply course completion. This is a hands-on, individual-contributor role for someone who combines maritime credibility with clear instruction, sound judgment, and a commitment to consistent standards.

• Deliver classroom, simulator, dockside, and live-water instruction using approved lesson plans, checklists, and training materials.

• Prepare boats, control stations, communications equipment, power, spares, and student materials so each event is ready to run.

• Coach operators, maintainers, launch and recovery crews, and customer teams through system setup, pre-launch checks, underway operations, recovery, and basic field maintenance.

• Assess student performance against defined standards, document qualification recommendations, and create targeted remediation plans when learners need more practice.

• Lead safety briefs and enforce weather, water-condition, operating-area, communications, and site requirements. Stop or adapt training when conditions, equipment, or people are not ready.

• Teach abnormal and emergency procedures through simulation and controlled rehearsals before live-water exercises.

• Maintain accurate attendance, operating logs, evaluation results, equipment discrepancy reports, and customer handoff records.

• Protect sensitive customer information, imagery, telemetry, and operational data.

• Contribute to after-action reviews and instructor calibration, turning field observations into practical recommendations for the Training Lead.

• Represent UFORCE professionally with customers and partners, communicating system limitations, risks, and readiness honestly.

• Hands-on USV, maritime or small-boat operating experience, with sound judgment around launch, recovery, dockside activity, weather, and water conditions.

• Ability to explain technical concepts clearly, demonstrate procedures, and coach learners with different levels of experience.

• A disciplined approach to safety, including the confidence to pause or stop an activity when required.

• Ability to assess practical performance objectively, give constructive feedback, and maintain clear evaluation records.

• Confidence working with technical operating systems, communications equipment, and field troubleshooting.

• Strong preparation, organization, and documentation skills, with ownership of assigned equipment, students, and training responsibilities.

• A collaborative, coachable approach: you teach approved standards, welcome observation, and elevate proposed changes rather than creating unapproved procedures.

• Professional communication and discretion when handling customer-sensitive or operational information.
