C-UAS Electronics Engineer (All genders)

Stark; München; Vor Ort; EUR 76.000 - 111.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

STARK is building the next generation of counter-UAS capability and seeks an Electronic Engineer to own the electrical design and integration of systems that must work reliably in field conditions. You will be part of our C-UAS team, shaping hardware for operation, interfacing with mechanical, software and systems engineers to prevent cross‑discipline issues.

This is not a maintenance role; you will define tests, contribute to reviews, and ensure production‑ready hardware for demanding defence

Qualifikationen

• Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
• Proven experience with hardware/electrical engineering in defence, aerospace, or high-reliability products.

Aufgaben

• Design, develop, and validate electrical systems and subsystems for C-UAS products.
• Own schematic capture, PCB layout review, and electrical architecture documentation from concept to production release.
• Support hardware integration and bring-up, troubleshooting RF, power, and digital domains, including SBCs, flight controllers, and high‑power motors.
• Collaborate with mechanical, software, and systems engineers to resolve cross‑discipline design conflicts early.
• Define and execute electrical test plans, considering EMC/EMI for field‑deployed systems.
• Contribute to design reviews (PDR, CDR) and produce clear technical documentation.
• Liaise with suppliers and contract manufacturers on component selection, lead times, and production quality.
• Support field trials and customer demonstrations where electrical performance validation is required.

Jobbeschreibung

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 — providing operators with a decisive edge in 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.

STARK is building the next generation of counter-UAS capability, and we need an Electronic·Engineer who wants to be at the sharp end of that problem. You'll sit within our C-UAS team in Swindon, owning the electrical design and integration of systems that need to work — reliably, in the field, under pressure. This isn't a maintenance role; you'll be shaping hardware that goes into operational environments.

• Design, develop, and validate electrical systems and subsystems in support of STARK's C-UAS product line.

• Own schematic capture, PCB layout review, and electrical architecture documentation from concept through to production release.

• Support hardware integration and bring-up, troubleshooting electrical issues across RF, power, and digital domains, including the integration of autonomy companion computers (SBCs), flight controllers, radio links, and high-power electric propulsion systems (EDFs/BLDC motors).

• Collaborate closely with mechanical, software, and systems engineers to resolve cross-discipline design conflicts early.

• Define and execute electrical test plans, including EMC/EMI considerations relevant to field-deployed defence systems.

• Contribute to design reviews (PDR, CDR) and produce clear, accurate technical documentation.

• Liaise with suppliers and contract manufacturers on component selection, lead times, and production quality.

• Support field trials and customer demonstrations where electrical performance validation is required.

• Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or a closely related discipline.

• Proven experience (4+ years) in hardware/electrical engineering, ideally in a defence, aerospace, or high-reliability product environment.

• Proficiency in schematic capture and PCB design tools (Altium preferred).

• Solid understanding of power electronics, signal integrity, and mixed-signal design.

• Familiarity with EMC standards and design-for-manufacture principles.

• Direct experience with UAS, C-UAS, EW, or RF-heavy systems.

• Experience with the electrical integration of seeker payloads (e.g., EO/IR Gimbals) and fuzing mechanisms.

• Exposure to STANAG or MIL-SPEC design requirements.

• Experience supporting field trials or rapid prototyping in a defence startup or SME context.

• Familiarity with DO-254 or similar airborne/defence hardware assurance frameworks.
