About Us 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. About the team Your mission You will be a key technical leader for a next-generation Unmanned Aerial System (UAS), driving a holistic, safety-by-design systems engineering approach across the entire product lifecycle. As a Senior UAV Systems Engineer, you will own the overarching platform architecture, defining how complex mechanical, electrical, avionics, and software subsystems interface and operate together. You will bridge the gap between high-level requirements and deployable hardware, managing system integration, verification activities, and leading rigorous testing campaigns to ensure our autonomous systems are robust, compliant, and mission-ready. Responsibilities Serve as a senior technical authority for UAS platform development and upgrades, owning overall system coherency, architecture, and performance from concept through to deployment. Work day-to-day within multidisciplinary engineering teams (mechanical, electrical, avionics, software, flight test) to guide full-lifecycle UAS design, integration, and fielding. Conceptualise and capture system architecture for new platforms and enhancements, producing technical trade studies, mass/power/link budgets, and system performance assessments. Produce layout and system design plans, define Interface Control Documents (ICDs), and enforce interface control processes across complex mechanical, electrical, and software subsystems. Establish and maintain requirements baselines, safety requirements, and end-to-end traceability using industry tools (e.g., IBM DOORS) and Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) approaches. Establish and execute the system safety program, coordinating Hazard Assessments (PHA/SHA/SSHA) and FMEA/DFMEA activities to ensure the platform meets stringent airworthiness and safety requirements. Implement robust change control processes to manage and assess the impact of engineering modifications on system safety, performance, and compliance. Act as the primary technical interface between internal teams, suppliers, and customers to coordinate payload integration and custom hardware/software interfaces for rapid capability delivery. Manage tactical engineering tasks during development sprints and live flight-test campaigns, rapidly resolving cross-discipline technical blockers and maintaining strict configuration control. Qualifications Degree (or equivalent) in Aerospace, Systems, Electrical, Robotic, or a closely related Engineering discipline. Significant industry experience with demonstrable systems engineering responsibility specifically on UAVs, autonomous aircraft, or complex, safety-critical aerospace platforms. Strong practical experience integrating complex UAS sub-systems: power distribution, propulsion, RF/EMC, EO/IR sensors, datalinks, flight controllers (GNSS/INS), and payload interfaces. Proven track record in requirements capture, compliance analysis, and verification/validation (V&V) activities; proficient with requirements management tools (IBM DOORS or similar). Familiarity with aerospace safety/airworthiness standards (e.g., ARP4754A, ARP4761, DO-178C, DO-254) and the principles of configuration management in a regulated environment. Practical familiarity with MBSE principles, interface control processes, and risk mitigation methodologies (FMEA/DFMEA). Excellent written and verbal communication skills; highly organised with the ability to lead technical reviews. Ability to operate effectively in fast-moving, agile environments and willingness to travel within the UK/Europe for flight testing and field integration. Security-cleared or eligible to obtain UK defence clearance. Desirable Prior experience acting as a Systems Engineering Lead on a fielded UAV platform, authoring flight readiness certification and safety assurance documentation. Experience integrating complex/custom tactical payloads, electronic warfare (EW) components, or edge computing hardware for defence customers. A background in start up or scale up environments where rapid prototyping, hardware in the loop (HIL) testing, and pragmatic engineering decisions are standard.

We have a clear set of objectives and a capable development team able to deliver against detailed tickets, but we need someone who can translate business needs into implementable technical work. As we expand our ambitions to improve data discoverability and access across the department, this ability to translate between business and technical will become increasingly critical.

This includes: Excellent architecture communication skills , ensuring clear communication with a range of stakeholders on technical design decisions. Confidence in making architectural decisions of medium risk and complexity and setting up appropriate governance and assurance processes to manage the risk. Effective community collaboration, working closely with the CATS development team to realise the target architecture and support the resolution of complex technical challenges More specifically, the role requires strong technical understanding of: Cloud infrastructure , with a particular focus on AWS services, architecture patterns, and security principles. Identity and access management , including designing fine-grained access controls using IAM roles, policies and groups.
