Computer Vision is one of the AI/ML areas in Ukraine where demand still runs ahead of competition. AI/ML overall is among the fastest-growing IT sectors — alongside «Military» and Embedded (DOU, 2026). In defence, CV already works in production: target and camouflage detection, FPV drone guidance from thermal imaging. Brave1 alone brings together over 2,500 defence companies, and systems like these are among its approved solutions.
The market is growing faster than the talent pipeline can fill it. The question is a specific one: who exactly is needed, and with which competencies.
The webinar answers three concrete questions: what CV is today, who hires CV/AI specialists in defence and why, and which roles are actually opening up.
Speakers:
- Denys Pluhatar: AI Lead at Beetroot, co-founder of uScore, author and instructor of the Computer Vision program. Recent projects include NSFW content detection, plant disease detection, and FPV drone guidance from thermal imaging.
- Oksana Horbunova: COO at BazaIT & Co-Founder, CEO of BazaIT Defense. She fills roles for dozens of defence companies every day, so what she describes is a pattern across the whole industry rather than one team’s experience.
Webinar program:
- What CV is today, with a live demo
- The CV/AI market in defence: roles and the demand behind them
- Roles: who hires whom — specific titles and requirements
- Beetroot Academy’s updated program: what changed and who it fits as a first step
Suitable for developers without an ML background, embedded and UAV engineers, and anyone working with CV systems who wants to understand how they work.
