ABOUT

Agnikul Cosmos is a company incubated at IIT Madras and we build rockets that can take satellites up to 500 kg to Lower Earth Orbit (LEO). In May 2024, we successfully completed our maiden launch from our own launchpad (India's first private launchpad). The launch has proven all the new technologies developed by Agnikul and also earned recognition from Honourable Prime Minister of India.

• You don't stop at identifying a problem, you stay with it until it gets solved.

Key Responsibilities

• Work closely with engineering, and other teams to coordinate activities and keep projects moving.

• Identify bottlenecks, dependencies, risks, and delays, and proactively work with relevant teams to resolve them.

• Drive regular project reviews, track milestones and action items, and ensure owners follow through on commitments.

• Build and maintain project plans, schedules, resource requirements, and status reports.

• Coordinate cross-functional teams to ensure information, decisions, materials, and resources reach the right people at the right time.

• Escalate critical issues when required and work with stakeholders to arrive at practi
