Run Emacs with the ‘--maximized’ command-line option or put the following form at the top of your early init file (see Early Init File in The GNU Emacs Manual).
(push '(fullscreen . maximized) default-frame-alist)
Note that while some customizations of default-frame-alist

it is okay to do it in this particular case. Adding it to the top of
your normal init file will also work, but leads to a visible resizing
of the window that some find distracting.
