• Continuously improve hiring processes, scorecards and documentation
• Support onboarding handover and close collaboration with the People team

• Have proven full-cycle recruiting experience – ideally across tech and commercial roles
• Are operationally strong, structured and able to manage multiple open roles simultaneously
• Have hands-on experience with Personio or a comparable ATS
• Communicate confidently and professionally with candidates and senior stakeholders
• Work independently, take ownership, and push processes forward without being chased
• Are based in Munich or willing to relocate

• Background in defense, aerospace or deep tech recruiting
• Experience building recruiting processes from scratch in a startup environment

• Real impact & ownership: Build and shape hiring at one of Europe's most exciting defense tech startups – with direct responsibility from day one.
• Mission-driven environment: Work on technologies that matter for European security and sovereignty.
• Competitive package: Competitive salary, EGYM Wellpass, corporate benefits, and equity options aligned with role and level.
• Deep tech environment: Get close to the product, the engineers, and the mission – not just the process.
• Grow fast: Real ownership from day one, with the opportunity to grow into a People Lead role as we scale.
• Startup mindset meets defence innovation: Flat hierarchies, fast decisions, and space for your ideas.
• Strong team: International, driven colleagues and a culture built on exchange, trust, and shared success.
