At Kshatra Labs, we are engineering the next generation of defense robotics: high-performance, autonomous systems built to operate at the edge of physical and computational limits.

You will integrate the electronics, actuators, sensors and software that bring our airframes and robotic systems to life, from wiring harness to first flight.

What you'll do:
Integrate and bring up flight controllers (PX4/ArduPilot), ESCs, motors, GPS, telemetry radios, cameras and gimbals
Design and build wiring harnesses, power distribution and connectors with clean routing, strain relief and EMI awareness
Configure, tune and test vehicles in QGroundControl or Mission Planner; read and act on flight logs
Interface sensors and payloads with companion computers (Raspberry Pi, Jetson) and microcontrollers (STM32, ESP32, Arduino)
Design mechanisms with actuators: servos, release mechanisms, gimbals, deployable or folding parts
Run bench and field tests, debug failures methodically and document the fix

Must-haves:
Pursuing or recently completed a B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical,Aerospace,Mechatronics, Electronics, Electrical, Robotics or a related branch




Solid basics in circuits, power electronics (batteries, BECs, current and voltage limits) and soldering
Embedded programming in C/C++ or Python on at least one microcontroller platform
Comfort with communication protocols such as UART, I2C, SPI, PWM, CAN or MAVLink
At least one project where you integrated hardware and software into a working system and tested it

Valuable-to-haves:
Hands-on drone experience: built, tuned or flown a multirotor, fixed-wing or VTOL
Exposure to ROS/ROS 2, Linux, computer vision or autonomy stacks
Basic CAD to design your own brackets and enclosures, plus 3D printing
Familiarity with RF links, video transmission or long-range telemetry
Knowledge of designing electronics for vibration, heat, dust or water ingress

What you'll learn: 
Full-stack integration on autonomous robotic platforms
Systems thinking: how mechanical, electrical and software choices affect each other
Field-testing discipline on hardware that has to work the first time
