Job Summary
Key Responsibilities
- Lead end-to-end satellite system design and architecture development for CubeSat and small satellite missions.
- Translate mission objectives into system-level requirements ensuring alignment across all subsystems (payload power ADCS propulsion communication and thermal).
- Own and manage system budgets including mass power data rate link budget and V.
- Perform system trade-off studies to optimize performance cost and risk for mission success.
- Drive system integration and interface definition across multidisciplinary engineering teams.
- Lead and coordinate design reviews (SRR PDR CDR) and ensure technical readiness at each stage.
- Develop and maintain system engineering documentation including requirements ICDs and verification plans.
- Ensure mission feasibility and performance validation through simulations analysis and testing.
- Work closely with payload and RF teams to define communication architecture link budget and coverage strategy.
- Support launch vehicle integration mission planning and on-orbit operations strategy.
- Identify and mitigate technical risks ensuring reliability and compliance with space standards.
- Collaborate with program management to support schedule cost and milestone tracking.
- Mentor and guide junior engineers fostering strong systems engineering practices within the team.
Desirable Skills & Certifications:
- Experience with mission analysis orbit design and simulation tools (STK GMAT MATLAB/Python).
- Solid understanding of CubeSat subsystems ADCS Power Thermal Propulsion and RF communication systems.
- Hands-on experience in system integration testing and verification (AIT/AIV) for space systems.
- Knowledge of RF systems link budget analysis and IoT payload design (LoRa SDR LPWAN).
- Familiarity with space standards and best practices (ECSS NASA standards IN SPACe/ISRO guidelines).
- Strong skills in multidisciplinary coordination technical leadership and stakeholder management
