ABOUT US

STARK Defence is a fast-scaling European defence-tech company building advanced autonomous systems. We hire world-class engineers and operators across embedded systems, RF, flight test, mechanical design, and production. Precision, velocity, and compliance are at the core of how we recruit.

YOUR MISSION

We’re looking for a Talent Sourcer who thrives in high-pressure, high-clarity environments. You’ll be the engine that feeds our pipelines — finding, engaging, and qualifying exceptional talent across Europe for critical technical and engineering roles.

QUALIFICATIONS

• 3+ years sourcing experience in engineering/technical recruiting (defense, aerospace, robotics, or related fields preferred).
• Proven ability to hunt passive candidates and convert them into active pipelines.
• Strong market-mapping skills; comfortable operating across multiple geographies.
• Clear, tactically empathetic communication style (influenced by Chris Voss / Chase Hughes principles a plus).
• Experience with LinkedIn Recruiter and ATS tools (Personio a plus).
• Detail orientation, compliance awareness, and speed of execution.

• Own the top of funnel: map markets, identify talent, and build diverse pipelines for engineering, R&D, and technical roles.
• Partner closely with recruiters and hiring managers to understand role priorities and candidate profiles.
• Execute outreach campaigns with precision — high-context, influence-driven messaging (LinkedIn, email, niche platforms).
• Screen candidates for eligibility (NATO/EU compliance, location, role fit) before handover to recruiting.
• Track sourcing performance, maintain ATS hygiene, and report on funnel health weekly.
• Continuously refine sourcing strategy using data and feedback.
