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. This provides our operators with a decisive edge in highly 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
We’re looking for a Technical Product Manager who will take ownership of a new hardware product from early-stage development to readiness for large-scale use. You’ll coordinate cross-functional teams, structure the workflow, and ensure that engineering, testing, and production streams move in sync.
The role involves working on a technically complex platform with many moving parts — engineering, electronics, software integration, testing processes, and preparation for future scaling.
Responsibilities
Drive the execution of a new hardware product from concept and requirements to delivery.
Structure the product roadmap: milestones, dependencies, timelines, risks.
Coordinate engineering, testing, manufacturing, procurement, and quality teams.
Work closely with technical leads to clarify requirements, constraints, and priorities.
Track progress, resolve blockers, manage resources, and keep delivery predictable.
Prepare the product roadmap for future scaling and production readiness.
Keep documentation, specifications, and change logs consistent and up to date.
Run regular syncs, reviews, and readiness checks across teams.
Communicate program status to leadership and highlight risks early.
Qualifications
4+ years in Product Management within hardware-related domains (aviation, electronics, robotics, embedded systems, complex R&D).
Ability to work with early-stage hardware concepts and bring structure to fast-changing environments.
Good understanding of hardware development phases: design → prototyping → testing → production prep.
Ability to read and understand technical requirements, specs, BOMs, and integration constraints.
Strong cross-functional coordination skills.
Fluent communication in English and Ukrainian.
Ownership mindset and ability to manage ambiguity.
Nice to Have
Experience with high-reliability systems (robotics, aerospace, defense, industrial machinery).
Understanding of embedded systems, electronics, mechanical design or manufacturing processes.
Experience preparing products for scaling or transitioning into production.
Familiarity with Jira/Confluence or similar tools.
