ABOUT US
STARK is a new kind of defence technology company revolutionizing 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.
This provides our operators with a decisive edge in highly contested environments.
We’re 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.
ABOUT THE TEAM
You will be reporting to the Head of Brand.
YOUR MISSION
We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled Senior Media and Communications Officer to support our growing communications team.
Based in Berlin or Munich, the successful candidate will play a key role in building the company’s reputation across Germany and
internationally, with a particular focus on media relations, content development, and strategic messaging.
RESPONSIBILITIES

- You are organised, calm under deadline pressure and strict with budgets.
- You have worked in or near regulated industries: defence, aerospace, automotive, government.
- You are drawn to the new generation of defence technology: tech- & software-defined, AI-driven, fast, not to the way it has
always been done.
- You have delivered work where design quality was non-negotiable, and you carried that standard rather than fought it.
- You work from written briefs and don't wait for meetings to act.
- You will spend time outsdoors and at demos, wide range of activations- physical spaces to merchandise to personal touchpoints

- Experience managing sensitive and high-stakes media moments, including crisis communications
- Confident working with senior executives and external stakeholders
- Able to translate complex technical topics into clear, compelling messaging
- Highly organised, proactive, and able to manage multiple priorities under pressure
This is not for you if

- You think logistics is beneath marketing. Here, it is marketing.
