UAV Engineer Working Student (All Genders)

ABOUT THE TEAM

You will join our C-UAS Edge Software engineering team dedicated to building resilient counter-unmanned aerial system technologies. The team works closely across hardware and software disciplines to deploy real-time software on edge systems. We value rapid iteration, field testing, and collaborative problem-solving to meet critical defence challenges.

YOUR MISSION

As a UAV Engineer (Working Student) – C-UAS Edge Software, you will support the design, development, and testing of edge software running on autonomous UAV and counter-UAS platforms. You will collaborate directly with software and hardware

WHAT YOU WILL DO AT STARK

• Develop and integrate C-UAS software components for edge processing and embedded Linux environments.


• Assist in real-time signal processing, sensor fusion, and telemetry data pipeline implementation.


• Conduct software testing in simulation environments and support physical field testing on UAV hardware.


• Optimize software algorithms for low-power edge hardware and embedded computing units.


• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to resolve hardware-software integration issues.


• Maintain clear technical documentation and automated test suites for software releases.

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE MISSION

• Currently enrolled in a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or a related technical field.


• Solid programming experience in C++ and/or Python.


• Basic understanding of Linux operating systems, networking protocols, and embedded system environments.


• Familiarity with UAV architectures, robotics frameworks (e.g., ROS/ROS2), or drone flight controllers (e.g., PX4, ArduPilot).


• Fluency in English; strong communication and teamwork skills.

NICE TO HAVE

• Hands-on experience with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing or field flight testing of unmanned aircraft.


• Experience with edge AI acceleration hardware (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson, Coral).


• Knowledge of RF technologies, radar systems, or optical sensing for counter-drone applications.
