About this role

At Stark, we forge the future of European and national security through cutting-edge, AI-driven technology and unmatched engineering precision. As a premier defence technology company, our mission is clear: to equip NATO Allies and their partners with next-generation autonomous defence platforms and advanced AI-driven software built to perform in the world’s most demanding environments. We believe that true security stems from relentless innovation.

By combining elite engineering talent with agile technology and an AI-native operational culture, Stark turns complex defence challenges into field-tested, multi-domain solutions. Why Join Us? The software and systems you work on directly protect personnel and defend European and national sovereignty. You will work alongside industry-leading minds on autonomous systems, advanced propulsion, and secure cyber platforms.

We foster a fast-paced, collaborative environment where bold ideas are supported by serious R&D backing. About the Team You will be part of the global HR Team, reporting to the Team Lead Ops. Your Mission You will own the practical application of AI and automation across HR at STARK. Your goal is to reduce administrative work, improve data quality and give employees and managers faster access to reliable support. You will identify opportunities, build and deploy solutions, and measure their impact across recruiting, people operations and workforce planning.

Working with HR leadership, IT, Security, Legal and Finance, you will make these solutions reliable enough for everyday use in a defence technology environment. Responsibilities Own the HR AI and automation roadmap. Prioritise projects by business value, process readiness, data sensitivity and implementation effort, with a clear owner and success measure for each. Build and maintain workflows for recruiting handovers, onboarding, employee changes, approval routing and reporting.

Select standard automation or AI according to the task and reliability required. Develop an HR knowledge assistant using approved policies and guidance. Ensure answers reference current sources, respect access permissions and escalate uncertain or sensitive questions to the right person. Connect HR systems and collaboration tools through approved integrations. Improve data consistency, resolve failed handovers and preserve the authoritative source for each record.
