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’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.

• Comprehensive Incoming Inspection: Perform detailed visual, dimensional, and functional inspections on incoming mechanical parts, electronics, batteries, wires, and PCBs using standard measurement and visual inspection tools.
• Functional & Electrical Validation: Execute standardized test protocols on electronics and batteries using appropriate bench-test equipment (e.g., oscilloscopes, Digital Multimeters and custom fixtures).
• Defect Identification & Isolation: Identify physical, mechanical, or electrical defects and immediately block/quarantine non-conforming materials to prevent them from reaching the production line.
• Documentation & Reporting: Record inspection results, create and maintain test protocols, and document all non-conformances within our quality management/complaint systems.
• Root Cause & Corrective Action: Support root-cause analyses and collaborate closely with Production, Engineering, and Supplier Quality teams to initiate corrective actions for quality deviations.
• Standard Compliance: Ensure all processes adhere to internal quality requirements and standard guidelines like ISO 9001 (and perspective EN9100).
• Technical Review: Review and interpret technical assembly drawings, schematics, Bill of Materials (BOMs), and inspection criteria to ensure strict compliance.

• Education: Completed technical education, degree, or a comparable qualification.

• Experience: Proven experience in Quality Assurance or Incoming Quality Control (IQC), ideally within the electronics, automotive, or aerospace industries.

• Measurement & Testing Skills: Proficiency in executing exact measurements on mechanical parts and performing basic electrical functional tests.

• Technical Literacy: Ability to accurately follow work instructions, read technical drawings and interpret quality procedures.

• Attention to Detail: Highly careful, detail-oriented work style with a strong sense of responsibility and visual accuracy.

• Software Proficiency: Secure handling of MS Office, ERP systems, and standard QM/defect reporting systems.

• Languages: Good written and spoken English (and German, if applicable to your location).

• Basic knowledge of advanced QM tools (e.g., Control Plans, FMEA).
• Experience working with externally manufactured components and supplier inspection processes.
• Familiarity with ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) handling requirements.
