Job Description

  • *Title:** AOCS Engineer
  • *Industry:** Space Technology
  • *Location:** Ahmedabad
  • *Role Type:** Full\-time
  • *Experience:** 2\-4 Years
  • *About the Role:**

We are looking for an AOCS Engineer to work with our ADCS and flight dynamics engineers on a SAR satellite constellation. You will work on real subsystem problems for a spacecraft being built and flown, under the guidance of a mentor, and see your analysis feed into actual design and test decisions.

  • *What You Will Work On:**
  • Build and refine ADCS simulations in MATLAB or Python, including sensor and actuator models and control mode behaviour
  • Analyse ADCS hardware test data and vendor documentation, and flag limitations or anomalies
  • Run orbit propagation and attitude pointing studies relevant to SAR imaging geometry
  • Assess how attitude and orbit knowledge errors affect SAR data quality
  • Support ADCS integration and testing activities alongside the AIT and Systems teams
  • Document your methods and results so the team can reuse them
  • *Eligibility:**
  • B.Tech, M.Tech or equivalent degree in aerospace, mechanical, electrical or a related field
  • 2\-4 years of relevant work experience
  • Coursework in spacecraft attitude dynamics, control systems or orbit mechanics
  • Working knowledge of MATLAB or Python
  • *Nice to Have:**
  • University CubeSat or small satellite project experience
  • Experience with STK, GMAT, Orekit or similar mission analysis tools
  • Familiarity with state estimation (Kalman filtering, residual analysis)
  • Interest in SAR or EO missions, GNSS\-based orbit determination, or propulsion and attitude interactions
  • *Attitude:**
  • Comfortable working between theory and hardware reality
  • Curious, and keen to build understanding from first principles
  • Clear communicator who can explain results to non\-specialists
  • *What You Will Gain:**

Hands\-on experience on a real satellite programme, direct mentorship from the ADCS team, and a project you can own and present at the end of the internship.
