STARK is a new kind of defence technology company revolutionizing 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.

Your mission

We are looking for a motivated Junior Flight Test Analyst to join our engineering team and support the analysis of flight data from our UAV platforms. In this role, you will work closely with flight test engineers to review telemetry logs, identify anomalies, and help translate raw data into actionable insights — contributing to the development of reliable and high-performance aerial systems.

Responsibilities:

• Review and interpret flight logs and telemetry data from UAV test missions
• Identify and flag anomalies or unexpected behavior in flight parameters (e.g., speed, altitude, battery status)
• Support the engineering team by providing clear summaries, visualizations, and documentation of test results
• Assist in organizing, storing, and structuring telemetry data for internal use
• Collaborate with test engineers and operators to ensure data accuracy and consistency
• Follow established testing protocols and contribute to improving data analysis workflows
• Learn and gradually work with tools such as Mission Planner, QGroundControl, or log viewers
• Maintain clear and organized records of test sessions and findings
• Contribute to developing internal best practices for flight data handling and analysis

Qualifications:

• Educational Background: Degree (or final-year student) in Aerospace Engineering, Avionics, Flight Operations, or related aviation fields. Also open to candidates with a background in Computer Science, Mechanical & Electrical Engineering, or Applied Physics & Math, who have a strong interest in aviation and UAVs.
• Data Handling & Visualization: Comfort working with structured technical data. Ability to interpret and visualize flight parameters such as altitude, speed, battery status. Familiarity with tools for plotting or reviewing data — spreadsheets, telemetry viewers, or simple scripts.
• Analytical Skills: Attention to detail when reviewing time series and identifying anomalies. Understanding of basic flight parameters (altitude, speed, GPS, battery etc.) Basic statistics knowledge is a plus.
• Documentation & Collaboration: Clear record keeping and documentation of test sessions. Ability to follow test protocols and coordinate with engineering teams. Curiosity to learn and improve internal tools and workflows.
