About Zen Technologies Founded in 1993 and headquartered in Hyderabad, Zen Technologies is a leading Indian defence technology company with a presence in India, the UAE and the USA. We design and manufacture advanced Combat Training Solutions and Counter-Drone Systems for defence and security forces worldwide. With 40+ indigenously developed products, 1,000+ training systems deployed globally and 170+ patents filed or granted, Zen is at the forefront of defence innovation. We are looking for an experienced GNC Engineer to design, implement and validate guidance, navigation, sensor fusion and control algorithms. The role covers real-time embedded implementation, simulation-based validation, telemetry analysis and support for field test campaigns.

Develop engagement state machines covering midcourse navigation, terminal acquisition, seeker handoff and guidance-driven endgame

Run Monte Carlo miss distance analyses across target manoeuvre profiles, sensor noise, latency and atmospheric disturbances





Work with the simulation engineer to validate algorithms in SITL and HITL environments before field testing

Support field test campaigns: pre-test prediction, real-time telemetry monitoring, post-test data analysis and model correlation

Strong foundation in estimation theory (Kalman filtering, sensor fusion) and control theory (classical PID, LQR, robust control, gain scheduling)

- Hands-on experience with IMU/GNSS integration and real-time embedded programming (STM32, ARM Cortex-M7, RTOS)
- Fluency in MATLAB/Simulink for rapid prototyping and C/C++ for production embedded software
- Solid analytical skills, with comfort deriving guidance laws from first principles and validating them against measured data
- B.Tech or M.Tech in Aerospace Engineering, Controls, Robotics or a related discipline

Experience with missile or terminal homing guidance, including target motion analysis and engagement geometry optimisation

Experience with ROS 2
