AI Summary

You will own the top-of-funnel sourcing strategy to identify and engage rare technical talent for specialized defence and engineering roles. You will partner with Talent Acquisition Business Partners to build qualified pipelines and maintain accurate data within the ATS.

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

You will join an international Talent Acquisition team of recruiters, coordinator and a sourcer supporting hiring across highly specialised defence, engineering and technology functions.

YOUR MISSION

STARK is scaling fast across multiple European defence programmes; and the engineers, operators, and technical leaders we hire next will define what we ship. As our Talent Sourcer, you own the top of the funnel: finding the rare profiles others can't, in a market where the best candidates aren't applying and the talent pools are small, guarded, and fiercely contested.

You'll work hand-in-hand with our Talent Acquisition Business Partners to turn hard-to-fill defence-tech roles into healthy, qualified pipelines.

WHAT YOU WILL DO AT STARK

  • Build and execute sourcing strategies for technical and engineering roles across our European programmes (UAS, C-UAS, autonomy, embedded systems, flight test)
  • Identify and engage passive candidates via LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search, GitHub, niche communities, conferences, and competitor mapping
  • Craft outreach that actually gets answered personalised, technically credible, and tuned to defence-sector sensitivities
  • Pre-qualify candidates on right-to-work, and clearance eligibility before handover to the TABP
  • Run structured talent mapping exercises (target companies, university clusters, competition circuits) and present findings to recruiters and hiring managers
  • Maintain clean pipeline data in our ATS (Personio) and report on sourcing funnel metrics response rates, conversion, channel performance
  • Partner with TABPs and hiring managers on intake to translate role requirements into searchable candidate profiles
  • Continuously test new channels, tools, and messaging to improve outreach performance

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE MISSION

  • 2+ years of sourcing experience, with a meaningful share in deep-tech, engineering, aerospace, or defence environments
  • Proven track record engaging passive technical talent you can show response rates, not just send volumes
  • Strong command of LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean/X-ray search, and at least one modern sourcing toolset
  • Genuine interest in learning about intricate engineering fields, demonstrated by independent research and the initiative to ask deep questions about our technical areas
  • Working knowledge of European hiring constraints — right-to-work, relocation, and the basics of security clearance eligibility
  • Fluent English; comfortable working remote with a distributed team across Europe, and willing to travel when necessary.

NICE TO HAVE

  • Direct exposure to defence, aerospace, or dual-use technology hiring — including familiarity with clearance frameworks (e.g. Ü2/Ü3, SC/DV, NATO SECRET)
  • Experience with talent mapping or competitive intelligence projects
  • Background sourcing from non-traditional pools: drone/UAV competition circuits, maker communities, ex-military networks

If you're interested in building the future of European Defence with us, and you see yourself reflected on the description above, please send us your CV in English. We're looking forward to meeting you!

 

SECURITY CLEARANCE

Due to the nature of our work in the defence sector, candidates must be eligible to obtain and maintain the appropriate security clearance required for this position. Details will be provided during the recruitment process.

However, information which cannot be (in)directly associated with your real-life identity is not personal data.

Fundamentals and purposes of processing personal data collected from application documents and during the application process

If you apply to us electronically, i.e. via e-mail or using our online form, we will collect and process your personal data for the purpose of executing the application process and preparing contracts.

By submitting an application via our recruitment website, you express your interest in taking up work with us. In this context, you transmit personal data, which we will use and store exclusively for the purpose of your job search / application process.

The personal data is stored, as a rule, exclusively for the purpose of filling the vacancy for which you have applied.

Your data will be stored for a period of 180 days after the application process has been concluded. This is usually done to fulfill legal requirements and/or defending ourselves against any claims arising from legal provisions. After this period, we are obligated to delete or anonymize your data. In case of anonymization, the data will only be available to us in the form of so-called metadata, without any direct personal reference, for statistical analysis (for example, share of male and/or female applicants, number of applications per specified period of time etc.).

Furthermore, we reserve the right to store your data for 180 days after the application process has been concluded for the purpose of adding it to our Talent Pool in order to identify any other vacancies that may be of interest to you.
