FREE CAREERS LECTURE

‘Why and How to Enter the Ukrainian MilTech Sector’
Speaker: Olesia, Defense Systems Engineer

Your code is a weapon. Your intellect is a shield.  Right now, we are all looking for ways to be as effective as possible. But how do you transform your anger at the aggressor into a technological advantage? How do we ensure that algorithms, drones, and sensors — not people — are on the front lines?

Join us for an eye-opening talk with our speaker Olesia, Defense Systems Engineer. Olesia has 8 years of experience in Military Technology.

This is a lecture about agency, responsibility, and the real technological front where engineers and innovators become a decisive force. Turn your desire to victory into the power of modern technology.

This lecture is part of Svitlo Graduates - a free programme for young Ukrainians aged 18–25 who want a career that combines opportunity with real-world impact. Find out more about the programme below.
