ABOUT US

STARK is a new kind of defence technology company revolutionising the way autonomous systems are deployed across multiple domains.

We design, develop, and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are software-defined, mass-scalable, and cost-effective

— providing operators with a decisive edge in contested environments.

We are focused on delivering deployable, high-performance systems — not future promises. In a time of rising threats, STARK is

bolstering the technological edge of NATO Allies and their Partners to deter aggression and defend Europe, today.

YOUR MISSION

The proliferation of low-cost UAS has fundamentally changed the threat landscape, and STARK is building the system that counters

it. As Product Manager for our C-UAS C2 software suite, you will own the vision and execution of the central intelligence layer

connecting sensor networks to effector tasking. Your mandate is clear: compress the DTIM loop, reduce operator cognitive load, and

ship a product that works when lives depend on it.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Own the Product Roadmap: Develop and maintain the end-to-end product roadmap for our C-UAS C2 software, bridging the gap

between Edge classification and the Frontline/Platform UI, from sensor integration to effector tasking and battle damage

assessment.

Define "What": Translate complex operational needs, user feedback, and strategic goals into clear, concise, and actionable

software requirements, user stories, and feature specifications.

Prioritize for Impact: Manage the product backlog, ruthlessly prioritizing features that reduce operator cognitive load,

mitigate fatigue during 24/7 operations, shorten the engagement timeline, and enhance mission effectiveness.

Drive Sensor Fusion & AI Integration: Work with engineering to define requirements for automated decision support, fusing data

from Radar, RF, and EO/IR sensors. Guide the productization of AI/ML models for rapid and reliable threat classification.

Champion Open Standards & Integration: Shape our product strategy around military C2 standards like MOSA/SOSA, OMS/UCI, Link

16, ASTERIX, and SAPIENT to ensure we remain the "friendly neighbour" integrator, seamlessly connecting with third-party

sensors and diverse effectors.

Be the Voice of the User: Engage deeply with end-users, customers, and internal stakeholders to understand the nuances of the

C-UAS mission, validate concepts, and ensure we are solving the most critical problems.

QUALIFICATIONS

5+ years of Product Management experience, with a significant portion focused on defence, aerospace, or enterprise-grade C2

software.

Significant experience in product management within the defence, aerospace, or national security sectors, knowing how to build

software for mission-critical applications where failure is not an option.

Demonstrable experience with products that follow the "DTIM" (Detect, Track, Identify, Mitigate) or similar sensor-to-effector

workflows.

Solid understanding of military C2 standards and architectures (e.g., MOSA, SOSA, OMS/UCI, Link 16, ASTERIX, SAPIENT).

Experience defining requirements for and productizing AI/ML capabilities, particularly for classification, sensor fusion, or

decision support systems.

Proven ability to manage a product roadmap, backlog, and prioritization process from concept to delivery.

Excellent communication skills and experience presenting to both technical and executive audiences.

Decisive & focused mindset, excelling at making tough trade-off decisions in a fast-paced environment with a bias for action

NICE TO HAVE

Comfortable discussing system architecture, API design, and the challenges of integrating complex hardware and software (e.g.,

autonomous guidance stacks and edge compute).

Strategic ability to analyze market trends, assess competitive threats, and formulate a compelling product vision that aligns

with the company's strategic objectives.

If you're interested in building the future of European Defence with us, and you see yourself reflected on the description above,

please send us your CV in English. We´re looking forward to meeting you!

ABOUT US STARK is a defence technology company redefining the engineering and deployment of autonomous platforms. Our core mission is to deliver fully operational unmanned systems, integrating the critical subsystems, including Electronic Warfare, necessary for NATO forces to maintain a decisive advantage in contested environments. We do whatever is required to achieve platform autonomy, grounded in precision, responsibility, and uncompromising engineering discipline. YOUR MISSION At STARK, we are building the next generation of autonomous platforms capable of navigating the world’s most contested environments. We are currently hiring for multiple Software Engineering positions where the primary mission is to ensure our fleet maintains command, control, and situational awareness against near-peer threats. Electronic Warfare (EW) is at the heart of everything we do. We’re looking for engineers who are passionate about the electromagnetic spectrum and eager to join a team that lives and breathes RF. Whether you specialise in signal processing, communications, or EW effects, your background in EW and high-performance C++ is what matters most. We prioritise deep expertise and a drive to solve complex problems over meeting every single sub-specialty requirement. RESPONSIBILITIES * Design high-performance C++ software for real-time signal processing, waveform manipulation, and mission-critical EW functions. * Develop anti-jamming techniques, frequency hopping (FHSS), and adaptive filtering to bypass active electronic countermeasures. * Design algorithms for RF sensing, signal detection, and situational awareness to identify and neutralise threats in dynamic environments. * Collaborate with hardware and systems teams to tune RF front-ends, ensuring software is perfectly calibrated to physical constraints. * Own the stack from initial design and mathematical modelling to rigorous bench testing and field trials. We are looking for candidates with a strong foundation in Modern C/C++ and a professional background in Electronic Warfare, ideally involving one or more of the following: * Deep understanding of the electromagnetic spectrum, DSP, Fourier methods, and modulation theory (QAM, QPSK, OFDM). * Experience with low-probability-of-intercept (LPI) links, digital modulation schemes, and the underlying physics of RF propagation. * Proficiency in embedded systems, Linux networking, specifically regarding radio-based mesh networks or point-to-point links. * Exposure to jamming theory, threat-driven RF effects, or cognitive radio for automated interference avoidance. QUALIFICATIONS * Strong engineering skills at both the systems design and detailed implementation levels. * Strong proficiency in modern C/C++ (memory management, concurrency, performance analysis). * Significant interest in physics/RF or a strong preexisting understanding of RF processing fundamentals and the electromagnetic spectrum. * Clear and structured communication skills for cross-functional technical collaboration. RELEVANT BACKGROUNDS * High end system software engineering in any context where both details and system level architecture is critical to mission success * Defence & Aerospace: Radar systems, electronic countermeasures, or encrypted tactical comms * Robotics: Long-range, encrypted data links for UAS/UGV or autonomous systems. * SDR Development: Extensive experience with platforms like USRP, pluto SDR, LimeSDR and frameworks like GNU Radio. * Advanced Engineering: Backgrounds in radio-waveform development, X-ray systems, or mathematically driven system design. NICE-TO-HAVE / BONUS SKILLS * Experience with MIMO antenna systems and beam-forming. * High performance computing and software benchmarking experience. * Familiarity with cryptographic standards for securing over-the-air transmissions. * Custom protocol design for low-bandwidth, high-latency environments. * Hands-on experience with RF waveform design or amateur radio. * Strong interest in physics, electromagnetic propagation, and waveform engineering. * Hands-on experience with RF waveform design and amateur radio. * Familiarity with wireless & cable-borne data formats (QAM-64, QPSK). * Exposure to jamming theory, threat-driven RF effects, and EW tactics. * Experience in signal processing and mathematical modelling (Fourier methods, modulation theory, filtering, etc.).
