Ukraine
Ukraine has a large and resilient IT industry that has kept operating through the war, centered on Kyiv and Lviv, with a strong tradition of engineering talent and outsourcing. Grammarly (Ukraine-founded) became a global name, and a wave of product companies followed. The roles skew software engineering, security hardware, and developer products.

Where Ukraine’s tech talent studies
Taras Shevchenko National University and the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute anchor the country's talent (WhatsApp co-founder Jan Koum studied at KPI, and it is named for aviation pioneer Igor Sikorsky). Together they feed one of Eastern Europe's strongest engineering pools.

Unicorn startups in Ukraine
Ukraine's unicorns are a testament to its engineering talent: Grammarly, the AI writing assistant, plus document automation at airSlate, language tutoring at Preply, and smart security at Ajax Systems. Many relocated their HQs, but the engineering roots remain Ukrainian.

Tech jobs in Ukraine: common questions
How many tech jobs are open in Ukraine right now?
Feeny is tracking about 476 open tech roles in Ukraine, from roughly 55 companies hiring. Each listing is pulled from a company's careers page, so it reflects a live opening. A large share is remote or contract, which reflects how the industry has kept working through the war. Filter by discipline to focus the search.
Which cities in Ukraine have the most tech jobs?
Kyiv and Lviv are the two centers of the country's IT industry. Kyiv holds the most, with Lviv a strong second and a long-standing engineering base in the west. Across the 1 Ukrainian cities we index, those two anchor the market, though a lot of the work is remote rather than tied to an office in either place. Given the wartime context, location often matters less than it would elsewhere.
What companies are hiring for tech roles in Ukraine?
Grammarly is the name most people know, founded in Ukraine before becoming a global product. Around it sits a large outsourcing and product-engineering industry that kept operating through the war. So the hiring runs from homegrown product companies to service firms building for clients abroad. Feeny lists roles from about 55 companies, so the current openings are the ones to check directly.
What kinds of tech roles are common in Ukraine?
The work skews software engineering, outsourcing and product development, and QA. Ukraine built a deep outsourcing tradition, so there's steady demand for engineers who can deliver for external clients, alongside product teams like the one that built Grammarly. QA and full-stack roles are common across both. The talent pool is large and experienced, which is exactly why the industry held together under pressure.
What is it like to work in tech in Ukraine?
The honest picture starts with the war, which is a real and ongoing factor in daily life and cannot be waved away. Even so, the tech industry has stayed resilient, with teams continuing to ship, often remotely and around power and safety disruptions. The engineering talent is genuinely strong and the community is tight. Anyone considering work here should weigh the security situation seriously rather than treat it as a footnote.
Can international candidates get a work visa to work in tech in Ukraine?
This is where honesty matters most. Given the wartime context, much of the work is remote or contract rather than relocation, and many roles are structured to be worked from outside the country. Relocating into Ukraine is not a realistic path for most people right now, and the security situation is a real factor to account for. If you're looking at Ukrainian tech from abroad, treat it as remote-friendly work rather than a move, and don't assume a relocation route that isn't there.
