About Stark

Stark builds the world’s most powerful electric motorcycles. From the VARG MX to the road‑legal VARG EX & SM, our bikes have won world championships and are engineered to outperform anything with a combustion engine. We’re based in Sant Boi, Barcelona, growing fast (77% year‑on‑year), and building a team that will take us even further. If you want to work on a product that people are genuinely obsessed with, this is it. Stark will become the global market leader in premium motorcycles. Building premium motorcycles requires innovation and we need your help to make us succeed. Our mission is to lead the way toward a sustainable motorcycle industry, by reducing plastic and CO₂ pollution. This will be achieved by building sustainable products that are superior to traditional technology in terms of performance, emotion and design.

The Role

The engineering department at Stark Future develops cutting‑edge motorcycles from the ground up. As an Analytical Calculations Engineer, you’ll be at the core of creating next‑generation electric motorcycles and associated products. You’ll develop pre/post‑processing tools for simulation, build 1D simulation models, and analyze data from bike testing. You’ll structure and compile all test data from field and lab tests and analyze it to provide decision‑making data to the rest of the team. Your work will span multiple domains, from structural to thermal, fluid mechanics to electrical engineering. You will work within a multidisciplinary team led by a Head of simulation and validation, and you’ll be part of a growing team of engineers and designers in Barcelona. You need hands‑on experience in developing high‑volume complex products and the ability to thrive in a fast‑paced, evolving, and highly innovative environment.

What You’ll Do

• Perform 1D simulation to validate thermal management designs and concepts to meet vehicle requirements.
• Continuously investigate and deploy new simulation methodology for new areas of electro/ mechanical interest.
• Participate and provide support for postprocessing data from requests from other third‑party players (mechatronics, brakes, cooling, powertrain…) as well as internal CAE teams (FEA, CFD…).
• Help with track testing set up and data acquisition.
• Perform sensor calibration together with the testing team.
• Take full responsibility and ownership of postprocessing all data coming from sensor‑equipped bike as well as other auxiliary tests (stiffness, bench testing, fatigue…).
• Provide simulation teams with all the data necessary to define new LC coming from lab and track testing.
• Assist or potentially become fully responsible for any other wide‑spread mechanical elements used on the bike in terms of calculations, such as fasteners and structural joints.
• Produce high‑quality and information‑rich reports as project outputs to portray findings and conclusions in a clear and concise manner to all involved stakeholders.

What you will bring to Stark

• Degree in mechanical, aeronautical, or other similar engineering fields.
• MEng/MSc or specialisation in vehicle mechanics/dynamics an asset.
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills.
• Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively with cross‑functional teams and also independently with minimal supervision.
• Comfortable in a fast‑paced, ever‑evolving, highly innovative environment (startups or high‑tech companies).
• High standards for yourself and everyone you work with.
• Constantly looking for ways to improve our products’ performance, quality and cost.
• Outstanding communication and interpersonal skills, fluent English is a must.

Experience

• At least 4 years of experience in vehicle dynamics.
• Matlab advanced level.
• 1‑D model correlation experience.
• Experience in strain gauge technology and/or other vehicle sensor technology (accelerometers, potentiometers, temperature, pressure, flow‑meter, etc.).
• Proven ability to understand and perform hands‑on work if and when necessary.
• Experience with data acquisition systems and software, both on track and in lab environments.
• Natural ability to understand engineering/physical phenomena and how to break down complex systems into simplified entities to translate them into mathematical models.
• Capable of managing projects, including schedules.

Nice to have

• Programming capabilities (especially Python).
• Understanding of static and dynamic load cases and structural analyses.
• Demonstrable Formula SAE/Student experience.

Why work with us?

• The chance to work on a product people are genuinely passionate about.
• A fast‑growing company with real momentum.
• A creative, international team based in Barcelona.
• Competitive salary and benefits package.
• Direct access to riders, race teams, and the product—this is not a remote‑from‑the‑product role.
• Subsidised lunch in our in‑house restaurant.
• Free access to our in‑house gym (including weekends!).
• 30 days of paid vacation.
