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.

Your mission

We’re looking for a Project Manager who enjoys bringing structure, clarity, and predictability into fast-moving teams. You’ll be involved in several projects at the same time, helping teams stay aligned, organised, and consistent in delivery.

The core focus of this role is building processes — setting up clear workflows, improving communication, and creating a smooth, transparent rhythm of work across teams.

Responsibilities

  • Work across multiple projects and support day-to-day delivery.
  • Analyse current workflows and build effective processes: planning, prioritisation, status tracking, reviews, and syncs.
  • Set up clear work cycles — from task definition to acceptance.
  • Implement tools and practices that keep teams organised (Jira, Confluence, tracking dashboards).
  • Improve communication between engineering, testing, production, and leadership.
  • Identify blockers early and resolve them before they escalate.
  • Keep project plans up to date: timelines, priorities, risks, and dependencies.
  • Standardise documentation and support consistent information flows.
  • Drive continuous improvement: simplify, optimise, and remove friction wherever possible.

Qualifications

  • 4+ years of experience in Project or Delivery Management.
  • Strong process mindset: you know how to build structure without adding unnecessary bureaucracy.
  • Experience running several projects in parallel.
  • Understanding of how technical or R&D teams work (hardware/software experience is a plus).
  • Ability to organise information clearly and make it easy for teams to follow.
  • Solid planning, prioritisation, and communication skills.
  • English and Ukrainian — confident working proficiency.
  • Proactive attitude and a strong sense of ownership.

Nice to Have

  • Experience in hardware, robotics, aerospace, defence, or other complex engineering environments.
  • Experience setting up Jira/Confluence and project workflows from scratch.
  • Background in PMO or building processes in growing teams.
