contents We study the ramification groups of finite Galois extensions $L/K$ of a complete discrete valuation field $K$ of equal characteristic $p>0$ with perfect residue field and Galois group isomorphic to the group of unitriangular matrices $UT_n(\mathbb{F}_p)$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$. We show that the upper ramification breaks can be expressed as a linear function of the valuation of the entries of a matrix directly constructed from the coefficients of a defining equation of the extension. This allows us to compute the ramification groups without using any elements of $L-K$.
