Role Description

This is a full-time, on-site Mechanical Technician role based in the Greater Hyderabad Area.

A Mechanical Technician for Satellite Systems is responsible for the installation, assembly, testing, maintenance, and troubleshooting of mechanical systems used in satellite equipment, ground-support systems, and satellite strictly adhering to Space quality and safety standards. The role often involves working in clean-room environments, laboratories, integration facilities, and testing centres.

Key Role & responsibilities:

1. Mechanical Assembly and Integration

· Mechanical assembly of structural panels, brackets, harness clamps, MLI (multi-layer insulation), and mechanisms (deployables, hinges, HDRMs — hold-down and release mechanisms)

· Fastener installation per torque specs (using calibrated torque wrenches/drivers),



including torque-striping and witness marks

· Installation of thermal hardware (heat pipes, radiators, doublers) and alignment of optical benches or payload mounts

· Integration of propulsion hardware — tanks, thrusters, tubing/fittings often requiring cleanliness-critical handling

2. Testing and Inspection

· Support environmental test campaigns including vibration, shock, thermal vacuum, and structural tests.

· Place accelerometers and set up monitoring equipment prior to structural and dynamic testing.

· Verify mechanical interfaces, alignments, and physical clearances between integrated subsystems.

· Inspect hardware post-test to check for wear, damage, or shifting components.

3. Quality and Safety Compliance

· Maintain full traceability by recording as-built configurations, torque logs, and assembly process.

· Work in cleanroom environments (such as ISO class standards) following proper gowning and logging rules.

· Flag non-conformances and write reports when parts or assembly steps fail to match specifications.

· Perform incoming inspections on structural parts and raw components for dimensional accuracy.

4. Preventive Maintenance





· Maintain test equipment and ground support equipment.

· Calibrate instruments according to procedures.

· Perform routine inspections to prevent failures.

5. Key Tools & Instruments hand on

· Torque Control Tools

· Handling & Lifting Equipment

· Metrology & Alignment Tools

· Cleanliness & Contamination Control Tools

· ESD & Environmental Monitoring

· Fastener & Mechanism-Specific Tools

Required Skills:

Mechanical AIT Operations

- Satellite Mechanical integration
- Subsystem Integration
- Payload integration
- MGSE operation

Environmental Test Support

- Preparing hardware for vibration, thermal-vacuum (TVAC), and acoustic testing — mounting to test fixtures, installing/removing red-tag items (covers, plugs)
- Post-test inspection support (torque checks, visual inspection for shift/damage)

Documentation Skills

Ability to

- Executing work per approved Assembly Procedures / Work Instructions
- Buy-off/sign-off at mandatory inspection points (MIPs) — often requiring QA witness (this is where your QA background intersects directly)
- Recording lot/serial numbers, torque values, and as-run deviations
- Raising or supporting Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs) when a build step deviates from spec

Software & Computer Skills

Useful skills include

- Microsoft Excel
- Test data recording

Educational Qualifications: Diploma/ITI mechanical/fitter with 2-3 years of hands-on experience handling End-to-end satellite electrical systems integration & testing.
