Senior RF Engineer (All Gender) (m/w/d) München

At Stark, we forge the future of European and national security through cutting-edge, AI-driven technology and unmatched engineering precision. As a premier defence technology company, our mission is clear: to equip NATO Allies and their partners with next-generation autonomous defence platforms and advanced AI-driven software built to perform in the world’s most demanding environments.

We believe that true security stems from relentless innovation. By combining elite engineering talent with agile technology and an AI-native operational culture, Stark turns complex defence challenges into field-tested, multi-domain solutions.

WHY JOIN US

The software and systems you work on directly protect personnel and defend European and national sovereignty.
You will work alongside industry-leading minds on autonomous systems, advanced propulsion, and secure cyber platforms.
We foster a fast-paced, collaborative environment where bold ideas are supported by serious R&D backing.

ABOUT THE TEAM

Ground Test & Prototyping. We are the engineering enabler turning theoretical concepts into battle-proven hardware through rapid prototyping, comprehensive environmental qualification, Hardware-in-the-Loop simulation, and physical testing.

YOUR MISSION

As our Senior RF & EMC Qualification Engineer, you will own Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3), Radio Frequency (RF) performance, and EMC qualification across our autonomous airframe fleet. You will bridge hardware design, in-house pre-compliance screening, and external military qualification campaigns (MIL-STD-461, VG 95373, DO-160) to ensure our unmanned systems reliably execute their missions in intense electronic warfare (EW) environments.

WHAT YOU WILL DO AT STARK
EMC & E3 Qualification Strategy: Define, execute, and own the formal electromagnetic environmental effects (E3) and EMC qualification roadmap across all STARK airframe platforms.
Pre-Compliance Testing: Establish and operate an in-house pre-compliance screening bench (near-field probes, conducted emissions, ESD testing) to troubleshoot issues rapidly during early design.
Test Plan Authoring: Author formal EMC Test Plans (ETP), test procedures, and qualification reports (ETR) aligned with MIL-STD-461G (RE102, RS103, CE102, CS114/115/116), VG 95373, and RTCA DO-160G.
External Campaign Leadership: Serve as the technical lead and authority during formal qualification test campaigns at accredited external test facilities (e.g., IABG).
Design-for-EMC Guidance: Collaborate with electrical and mechanical engineering teams to optimize PCB grounding, harness shielding, enclosure bonding, and antenna co-site isolation.

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE MISSION

Education & Experience: Degree (B.Sc., M.Sc., or Dipl.-Ing.) in Electrical Engineering, RF Engineering, Telecommunications, Physics, or equivalent with 5+ years of hands-on experience in EMC testing and qualification.
Defence / Aerospace Standards: Deep practical working knowledge of military and aerospace EMC standards: MIL-STD-461 (preferred: Methods RE102, RS103, CE102, CS114/115/116), VG 95373, or RTCA DO-160G Section 20–22.
Lab Instrumentation Mastery: Expertise configuring and operating spectrum analyzers, EMI receivers, signal generators, power amplifiers, LISNs, current probes, and near-field sniffers.
Root-Cause Troubleshooting: Demonstrated track record of diagnosing and resolving complex EMI/RFI issues (common-mode noise, ground loops, aperture leakage, harness radiation).
Language Skills: Fluent English proficiency; German language proficiency is a strong advantage for interfacing with local external test houses.

NICE TO HAVE

RF System Integration: Experience with antenna placement, co-site interference mitigation, RF link budgets, or GNSS anti-jam architectures on unmanned airframes.
High-Intensity Radiated Fields (HIRF) & Lightning: Familiarity with HIRF testing and indirect lightning effects (DO-160 Section 22 / MIL-STD-464).
Automotive / Space Background: Prior qualification experience from aerospace, defense primes, space systems, or high-voltage automotive.
