? We’re Hiring: Systems Engineer – Propulsion

Location:
Bengaluru, KA Industry: Aerospace / Space Technology We are seeking a high-ownership Propulsion Systems Engineer to lead the architecture, integration, verification, and launch compliance of our satellite propulsion systems from concept through in-orbit operations.

Key Responsibilities
• Requirements & Architecture: Translate mission needs into propulsion requirements and system architectures. Maintain end-to-end traceability and lead technical reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR, MRR, TRR, FRR).
• Integration & ICDs: Serve as the focal point for Interface Control Documents (ICDs), ensuring seamless compatibility across structures, thermal, power, avionics, GNC, and flight software.
• Launch Vehicle Compliance: Coordinate qualification evidence, range safety, pressurized systems compliance, and approvals with launch providers (e.g., SpaceX Rideshare, ISRO).
• Technical Budgets & Risk Analysis: Manage system technical margins (mass, power, thermal, volume) and lead safety/reliability assessments (FMECA, FTA, DFMEA/PFMEA, SSPP).
• Verification, Testing & Operations: Develop V&V; plans and verification matrices. Drive development testing, TRRs, anomaly resolution, and propellant loading/in-orbit readiness.
• Cross-Functional Leadership: Act as the primary technical authority to resolve system-level design conflicts between propulsion research and satellite engineering teams.



Basic Qualifications
•

Education:
Bachelor’s in Aerospace, Mechanical, Systems Engineering, or a related discipline.
•

Experience:
3+ years managing requirements, system integration, and V&V; for complex hardware products (aerospace industry experience preferred).
• Technical Expertise: Ability to design propulsion systems from scratch using hand calculations and fluid/combustion/thermal simulations.
• Standards & Safety: Familiarity with pressurized system standards (ANSI/AIAA S-080A/81B, ASME BPVC), safety practices (FMECA), and spaceflight qualification guidelines (SpaceX, ISRO).
• Lifecycle Reviews: Hands-on experience contributing to or leading PDR/CDR milestones. Preferred Qualifications
• Master’s degree in aerospace/mechanical/systems engineering.
• 5+ years of hardware team leadership experience.
• Proficiency in CFD/Thermal modeling tools (ANSYS, Siemens NX, OpenFOAM) for compressible, two-phase, or combustion flow.
• Working knowledge of satellite mission analysis and tools like JIRA/Confluence. Work Environment
• In office role with exposure to high-pressure, thermal, electrical, and propellant test environments.
• Fast-paced hardware development environment requiring agility and periodic travel between Thane and Bengaluru facilities. ? To Apply: Send your resume to [email protected] or apply directly on LinkedIn.
