Job description
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.
STARK is a defense technology company that is fundamentally changing the deployment of autonomous systems in various operational areas. We design, develop, and produce high-performance unmanned systems that are software-controlled, scalable in large numbers, and cost-efficient. This gives our forces a decisive advantage in demanding combat environments.
Our focus is on immediately deployable high-performance systems – not on vague future promises. In an era of growing threats, STARK strengthens the technological superiority of NATO allies and their partners to ensure deterrence and defend Europe today.
Responsibilities
- Preparation and updating of transfer pricing documentation (Local File, Master File) as well as contributing to the further development of the global transfer pricing framework and internal policies

- Support in the preparation of national income tax returns and in the calculation of current and deferred taxes
- Planning and participation in projects for the digital further development of the tax function and tax-relevant processes
Required Skills
- Completed university degree, preferably in business administration, law, or a comparable qualification
- A passed tax advisor examination is desirable, but not strictly required
- At least 5 years of professional experience, ideally in an auditing firm or in the tax department of an internationally active group
- Sound knowledge of national and international tax law, and ideally in the area of transfer pricing and intercompany business
- Very good written and spoken German and English skills
- Strong communication and teamwork skills as well as a structured, independent way of working

If you are excited about this role, we encourage you to apply even if you don't meet all the listed qualifications—ability and impact cannot be summarised in a few bullet points. We value unique perspectives, adaptability, and a drive to solve high-stakes challenges.
