Our vision is to transform operations into highly secure, resilient, and fully autonomous missions. Bluewhite's mission is to empower frontline units and keep operators out of harm's way by deploying scalable, AI-powered solutions. We leverage cutting-edge Physical AI and advanced world models for robotics to equip existing vehicles and robotic platforms with our mature, OEM-agnostic autonomy stack - turning them into intelligent, coordinated autonomous swarms. We partner with defense forces, OEMs, and system integrator to enable robust, trusted autonomy in contested environments, maximizing operational effectiveness, accelerating mission success, and most importantly, saving lives. Are you looking to be a part of a deep-tech team that impacts the future of global security ? Our team does exactly that every single day.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source. ## More jobs like this - EL [Director of Finance](https://gurify.com/job/director-of-finance-at-elsight-31bcd9a0c245) Elsight · Ramat Gan, Israel · last week - WE [Finance Manager](https://gurify.com/job/finance-manager-at-webbing-b288529d9313) Webbing · Petah Tikva, Israel · last week - CA [Finance Operations Associate](https://gurify.com/job/finance-operations-associate-at-candex-ec52f74c6db5) Candex · Israel · 3 weeks ago - AR [Finance Operations Specialist](https://gurify.com/job/finance-operations-specialist-at-arbitrip-dffd8d6e1684) Arbitrip · Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel · 3 weeks ago - SA [Samsung Israel R&D Center- SIRC](https://gurify.com/job/samsung-israel-r-d-center-sirc-5d3465cbe269) Samsung · Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel · last week - UP [Assistant Controller – 6-Month Maternity Leave Cover](https://gurify.com/job/assistant-controller-6-month-maternity-leave-cover-at-upstream-38704475c63c) Upstream · Herzliya, Israel · 3 days ago ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org/","@type":"JobPosting","title":"Director of Business \u0026 Commercial Finance","description":"\u003Cp\u003EFounded in 2017 and acquired by Elbit Systems in 2026, Bluewhite delivers field-ready ground autonomy and intelligence for the new era of robotic warfare.
