C-UAS Flight Test Coordinator

STARK

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 STARK is building the next generation of counter-UAS capability, and we need an Electrical Engineer who wants to be at the sharp end of that problem. You'll sit within our C-UAS team in Swindon, owning the electrical design and integration of systems that need to work — reliably, in the field, under pressure. This isn't a maintenance role; you'll be shaping hardware that goes into operational environments. RESPONSIBILITIES * Design, develop, and validate electrical systems and subsystems in support of STARK's C-UAS product line. * Own schematic capture, PCB layout review, and electrical architecture documentation from concept through to production release. * Support hardware integration and bring-up, troubleshooting electrical issues across RF, power, and digital domains, including the integration of autonomy companion computers (SBCs), flight controllers, radio links, and high-power electric propulsion systems (EDFs/BLDC motors). * Collaborate closely with mechanical, software, and systems engineers to resolve cross-discipline design conflicts early. * Define and execute electrical test plans, including EMC/EMI considerations relevant to field-deployed defence systems. * Contribute to design reviews (PDR, CDR) and produce clear, accurate technical documentation. * Liaise with suppliers and contract manufacturers on component selection, lead times, and production quality. * Support field trials and customer demonstrations where electrical performance validation is required. QUALIFICATIONS * Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or a closely related discipline. * Proven experience (4+ years) in hardware/electrical engineering, ideally in a defence, aerospace, or high-reliability product environment. * Proficiency in schematic capture and PCB design tools (Altium preferred). * Solid understanding of power electronics, signal integrity, and mixed-signal design. * Familiarity with EMC standards and design-for-manufacture principles. NICE TO HAVE * Direct experience with UAS, C-UAS, EW, or RF-heavy systems. * Experience with the electrical integration of seeker payloads (e.g., EO/IR Gimbals) and fuzing mechanisms. * Exposure to STANAG or MIL-SPEC design requirements. * Experience supporting field trials or rapid prototyping in a defence startup or SME context. * Familiarity with DO-254 or similar airborne/defence hardware assurance frameworks. 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!

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 You'll be the technical glue holding together a fast-moving hardware and payload integration environment. The person who turns parallel engineering workstreams into one working system instead of seven disconnected ones. Acting as direct technical counterpart to our integration lead, you'll bring process discipline and hands-on execution to a function that's still being built. This is not a coordination role with a PowerPoint deck attached, it's a seat at the bench, with the authority and technical credibility to make decisions stick.  RESPONSIBILITIES * Own day-to-day technical integration across hardware, payload, and embedded subsystems, working directly with engineering teams to resolve interface conflicts as they arise. * Apply discipline across integration activities, maintaining traceability between requirements, design, and verification. * Translate requirements and constraints between hardware, software, payload, and systems engineering teams, closing ambiguity at the interfaces rather than escalating it. * Identify and resolve technical dependencies across teams before they become integration blockers, not after. * Introduce structure, documentation, and change control into an integration function that doesn't have it yet, without freezing the speed the program needs. * Work hands-on with engineers on the test floor and at the bench when a problem needs solving in person, not via status update. * Act as a technical sparring partner to the integration lead, sharing context and pressure-testing decisions across the integration scope. * Shape the build-out of the wider integration team, contributing to role definition and technical interviewing as the team scales. * Report integration status, risks, and blockers in terms program leadership can act on, translating engineering reality into business decisions. QUALIFICATIONS * Proven system integration experience in hardware, payload, embedded, defence, or aviation environments. * Technical depth strong enough to work as a peer with engineers, not just manage their timelines. * Track record owning technical dependencies and interfaces across multiple engineering disciplines simultaneously. * Background in either systems/hardware engineering or technical program management, with hands-on integration exposure either way. * Experience on complex, multi-team technical programs, defence, aerospace, automotive, or comparably regulated sectors. * A pragmatic, low-ego, execution-first operating style: you bring structure to chaos, you don't wait for chaos to resolve itself. * Fluent German and professional English. You'll work directly with German-speaking engineering teams daily. NICE TO HAVE * Experience building or scaling a technical/integration team from scratch. * Background in UAS, C-UAS, or loitering munition systems specifically. * Familiarity with formal systems engineering tooling (requirements management, configuration/change control platforms). * Prior experience in a scale-up or fast-growth engineering environment.
