Description

About Us 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. About the team Minerva is STARK's command and control software — the brain that connects operators to autonomous systems across multiple domains in real time. The Minerva team is a small, senior software group based in Berlin and Munich, working directly with our systems and hardware teams to build mission-critical C2 capabilities deployed in active operational environments. We move fast, ship real software, and operate under constraints most engineers never encounter — low-bandwidth networks, air-gapped devices, high-stakes decision loops. There is no room for abstraction for its own sake. Everything we build ends up in the hands of real operators in the field . Your mission This is not a "standard" backend role. You won't be building CRUD apps for a web store. You will be building the high-performance, low-latency engine at the heart of Minerva Frontline, our Command & Control (C2) Software, enabling mission planning and operations of Aerial and Maritime asset swarms in real world conditions. We are looking for C++ developers to build out our core server-side architecture enabling the increasingly complex CONOPS required by NATO’s Armed forces. You will be responsible for how we maintain a global battlefield state, how we translate high-level operator intents into machine-executable actions, and how we stream real-time telemetry to the frontline. You will work in a high-densit
