Full Job Description

  • Actively lead and build our maritime software engineering team.
  • Hire, mentor, and develop talent to expand our maritime footprint.
  • Lead the overall software design, development, and integration for maritime systems within the Minerva ecosystem.
  • Design and implement core C++ architecture for autonomy, control, and communication subsystems.
  • Establish technical foundations, define interfaces, and enforce modern C++ standards through rigorous code reviews and best practices.
  • Collaborate closely with hardware and systems engineers to ensure software performs reliably on physical autonomous platforms.
  • Build and manage robust software delivery pipelines for maritime applications, spanning from edge devices to front-line interfaces.
  • Define quality benchmarks to ensure all maritime systems are cohesive, resilient, and ready for deployment in harsh sea states.
  • Take full ownership of our maritime software capability while remaining deeply hands-on in the code.
  • Lead the overall maritime software development strategy as a player-coach.
    • Technologies:
  • AI
  • Embedded
  • Hardware
  • Security
  • Architect
  • C++
    • More: We are STARK, a new kind of defence technology company revolutionising the deployment of autonomous systems across multiple domains. We design, develop, and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are software-defined, mass-scalable, and cost-effective, giving operators a decisive edge in highly contested environments. We are extending our expertise into the maritime domain with AI-enabled unmanned surface vessels built for reliable performance in the harshest seas, delivering a fully integrated hardware-software capability for scalable ISR and strike operations. We are an equal-opportunity employer committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace, and candidates must be eligible to obtain and maintain the appropriate security clearance for this role.

  • Extensive hands-on experience in modern C++ with a lead-by-example approach to coding.
  • Experience leading technical teams, or a strong desire to transition into a formal leadership role while staying hands-on.
  • Deep understanding of software architecture, integration, and high-level system design.
  • Background in real-time, embedded, or safety-critical systems such as automotive, aerospace, or defence.
  • Familiarity with autonomous control systems, such as autopilots, guidance algorithms, or vehicle dynamics.
  • Practical experience working with physical hardware, sensors, and complex data communication systems.
  • Must be security-cleared or eligible to obtain UK/EU defence-level clearance.
