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.
Support the development, integration, testing, and operation of drone ground control stations with a strong focus on radio systems and field-ready communication setups. You will work hands-on with real hardware, antennas, power systems, and cabling, helping to build robust and operationally reliable GCS solutions for demanding environments. A key part of the role is the integration, configuration, and practical use of Silvus radio systems in test and operational contexts. You will contribute directly to making our ground control stations more reliable, maintainable, and ready for customer and mission-specific requirements. This role is strongly hands-on and includes regular testing in outdoor and field environments.
GCS Integration: Assemble, integrate, and optimize hardware components within drone ground control stations, including laptops, radios, networking equipment, antennas, and power components.
Silvus Radio Operation: Configure, integrate, and operate Silvus radio systems as part of GCS and communication setups, ensuring stable and field-ready performance.
Radio & Antenna Systems: Support the setup, testing, and optimization of radio links, antenna configurations, and related communication hardware in realistic operational conditions.
Hardware Interaction: Ensure reliable and efficient interaction between all hardware and system components within the ground control station environment.
Cabling & Build Quality: Design, implement, and maintain clean, robust, and serviceable cable management solutions for mobile and operational deployments.
Power Management: Support energy and power management concepts, including battery-based systems, charging concepts, and fallback power supply solutions.
Linux-Based Operation: Work with Linux-based systems in daily operation, setup, and configuration as part of the GCS environment.
Outdoor Testing: Conduct hands-on testing, experimentation, and iterative system improvements on test sites and in outdoor environments with drones, radio systems, and antennas.
Customer & Operational Adaptation: Support the adaptation of GCS and radio setups to customer-specific and operational requirements.
Documentation: Document system setups, radio configurations, hardware dependencies, and test results in a clear, structured, and maintainable way for internal use and customer handover.
System Completion: Support the completion and readiness of ground control stations in line with operational and Bundeswehr-related requirements.
