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
This is not a maintenance role. We are looking for a (Senior) Forward Deployed Engineer to build the central engine and intuitive interfaces of Minerva Frontline, our Mission Management Software. You will be responsible for building end-to-end features, spanning from the core C++ server that orchestrates UAV swarms and maintains global battlefield state, down to the real-time TypeScript interface that operators use in highly contested environments.
You will architect and code high-performance, safety-critical systems across the stack, writing Modern C++ for the backend and TypeScript for the frontend, ensuring robust real-time data flow via WebSockets. Crucially, this is a highly hands-on role where you will work in the field alongside hardware engineers to ensure new Drone platforms and features are designed, implemented, and tested to the highest quality.
If you are a high-agency engineer who thrives on owning features top-to-bottom and building mission-critical software from the ground up, this is your command center.
