What you'll do
In this role, you will work across the full propulsion system life cycle for Aule's satellite missions, from requirements definition through vendor coordination, co-engineering, integration, testing, and in-orbit support. You'll help connect our satellite engineering teams, propulsion vendors, and program stakeholders, working across subsystems to enable first-of-its-kind satellite servicing.

Responsibilities
• Derive propulsion requirements (ΔV, thrust, lifetime, redundancy, duty cycles) from mission needs, and contribute to candidate architectures that fit the technology roadmap and business strategy
• Track requirements, interfaces, performance budgets, and critical parameters across the project life cycle, and support technical discussions with internal and external stakeholders
• Work day-to-day with propulsion vendors through conceptual design and co-engineering; review their designs, analyses, qualification procedures, and acceptance data for compliance
• Support propulsion AIT at unit and spacecraft level, including integration procedures,



safety and cleanliness controls, leak checks, and propellant handling
• Draft test plans, procedures, instrumentation schemes, and acceptance criteria
• Support launch campaigns: fueling readiness, subsystem checkout, and pre-launch verification
• Support in-orbit commissioning, calibration burns, and maneuver planning; monitor telemetry, track propellant consumption, and contribute to anomaly resolution and long-term health assessment

What we look for
Minimum requirements
• B.Tech/B.E. in Aerospace, Physics, Electrical, or a related engineering discipline
• 1+ years in propulsion systems within aerospace, satellite manufacturing, or adjacent industries
• Robust foundation in fluid mechanics and thermodynamics
• Experience in the design and analysis of pressurized fluid systems
• Familiarity with propulsion-system cleanliness, contamination control, and secure fluid-handling practices
• Proficiency with CAD
