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.

Your mission

Lead the architecture, design, and integration of high-reliability electrical systems for our next-generation Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). In this role, you will own the electrical lifecycle from concept to flight line, designing robust power distribution networks, harness architectures, and avionics integration capable of meeting demanding flight profiles and operational environments.

Responsibilities

Own the high- and low-voltage electrical system implementation for long-endurance fixed-wing aircraft, including power distribution, battery management systems (BMS), power conversion, and payload integration.
Design complex, lightweight, and flight-ready wiring harnesses, schematics, and interconnect diagrams using industry-standard CAD suites (e.g., Altium, Capital, E3.series, or SolidWorks Electrical).
Conduct power budget calculations, circuit protection analysis, wire sizing, thermal load modeling, and EMI/EMC mitigation strategies to ensure system stability and regulatory compliance.
Collaborate closely with mechanical, embedded software, and flight test engineers to integrate avionics, flight control surfaces, propulsion systems, and sensors into the airframe.
Define and execute test procedures for bench testing, hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) integration, Environmental Stress Screening (ESS), and ground/flight testing.
Author engineering documentation, ICIDs, and compliance artifacts aligned with aerospace standards (e.g., DO-160, MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461, or equivalent civil UAV standards).
Provide technical guidance and design reviews for junior and mid-level electrical engineers.

Qualifications

Mechanical design experience, in ideally in aerospace / UAV / autonomous systems
Proven record of taking structures from concept through verification to high rate production (wing, fuselage, empennage)
Expert in SolidWorks (CATIA V5/V6 a plus) and tolerance stack analysis
Strong knowledge of composites, 3D printing, machining, injection moulding, and joining methods
Familiarity with MIL standards and EASA/FAA certification pathways (SC-Light UAS, CS-23)
Excellent communication skills - able to influence at exec and program level
Eligible for UK Security Clearance
