About ZavityZavity is a Bangalore-based deep-tech aerospace startup building autonomous spacecraft platforms for space research missions.We are currently in the prototype development phase, designing experimental platforms and sample recovery systems to enable mission-oriented space experimentation. We operate with an engineering-first mindset and are assembling a small, high-ownership team to build flight-intent hardware from first principles.Role OverviewThe Technical Associate Intern will provide hands-on support for the structural and thermal hardware development of Zavity’s spacecraft platform. This is a hardware-focused role centered on CAD modelling support, prototype fabrication assistance, and testing - working closely with the engineering team to take components from design to build.This role is execution-focused rather than analysis-focused: the emphasis is on building, assembling, and testing real hardware, not on independently owning FEA, CFD, or thermal simulation work.Key ResponsibilitiesAssist with prototype fabrication - machining coordination, 3D printing, hand-tool work, and basic assemblySet up structural and thermal test rigs, run tests, and log dataPrepare and organize engineering drawings, BOMs, and test documentationCoordinate with vendors and workshops for parts fabrication and material sourcingMaintain workshop/lab organization - tools, parts inventory,



and consumablesProduce quick prototypes and mock-ups to support design iteration and reviewSupport senior engineers during design reviews and prototype build sprintsRequired QualificationsPursuing or recently completed Diploma / B.E. / B.Tech in Mechanical, Aerospace, or a related engineering fieldWorking knowledge of CAD tools (SolidWorks preferred or equivalent)Comfortable with hands-on work - hand tools, basic machining, assembly, and lab-based testingBasic understanding of mechanics and materialsWillingness to work in a fast-paced startup environmentPreferred AttributesPrior experience in a workshop, fabrication lab, robotics team, or maker spaceInterest in spaceAttention to detail and reliability in hands-on tasksHigh commitment and a “get it built” problem-solving mindsetGrowth OpportunityHigh-performing interns may be considered for:Extended internshipTransition into a design/analysis track (e.g., Mechanical Design & Analysis Engineer)Full time Hardware / Build Associate positionLong-term growth within the founding engineering teamWork EnvironmentOn-site in BangaloreEarly-stage startup environmentHigh ownership and responsibilityDirect mentorship from the founder and engineering teamIf you enjoy building real hardware - not just modelling it on screen - and want hands-on exposure to spacecraft systems from day one, we encourage you to apply.
