Vacancy: Data Collection and Processing Section Operator
Data from the battlefield arrives continuously and in different forms. Before it becomes a picture of the situation, it has to be received, checked and put where it will be found.
The Data Collection and Processing Section Operator receives, checks and processes information arriving at the command post, enters it into record-keeping systems and prepares consolidated data for reporting.
This is a position for an attentive person who can work with information quickly and without mistakes.
Who can become a Data Collection and Processing Section Operator
No experience is required. Experience with the Delta situational awareness system will be a significant advantage.
What really matters:
- Confident PC user
- Attentiveness: unreliable data is worse than no data at all
- Stress resilience and the ability to work at a high pace
- Ability to assess the situation soberly and respond accordingly
- Experience with the Delta situational awareness system is an advantage
- Experience of duty shifts at operations posts is an advantage
How the operator differs from the section chief: the operator processes data and enters it into the systems. The chief organises the work, controls quality and reports to command.

How you will be trained
The path is the same for everyone: 51 days of basic military training, then the brigade adaptation course — 14–15 days with instructors who have combat experience.
Then comes training to work with information systems: data processing procedures, record-keeping, working in the situational awareness system.
Tactical medicine is drilled until it becomes automatic. Our instructors' principle is short: the priority is to survive.
What you will be provided with
You will be fully kitted out: gear, protective equipment, a workstation and equipment.
You will not be on your own. The operator works in the section under the chief, alongside other staff branches.
What the terms include:
- Pay: base pay of UAH 21,000 + an additional bonus of UAH 30,000 — approximately UAH 51,000 – 55,000 per month in total, depending on the position and conditions of service
- Full provision of gear, protective equipment and military property
- The social package provided for service members
- Opportunity to obtain combatant status (UBD)
Where you can grow
- Chief of the Data Collection and Processing Section
- Officer staff positions — given the appropriate training
- Related areas: the unmanned systems (UxS) control department
- Professionally — experience of working in the ISTAR loop and the Delta system
In the 141st, competence and results count — not length of service.
