Lead cross-functional initiatives spanning satellite payloads, sensors, ground systems, software, data platforms, AI/ML, product, and orbital operations. Prepare executive briefs, manage risks and dependencies, conduct technology and business analyses, and ensure delivery across development, integration, testing, deployment, and operations.

Supports spacecraft hardware and software integration testing in an on-site lab. Responsibilities include preparing test setups, executing procedures, recording results, processing test data with Python, maintaining documentation and traceability, building and checking cables and fixtures, and supporting instrument readiness. The intern will also develop data-handling scripts and assist with test reports, hardware bring-up, soldering, and lab operations under engineer supervision.

Develops and maintains spacecraft checkout test sequences, automation, limits, and configuration control. Executes spacecraft-level integration, functional, thermal vacuum, self-compatibility, and end-to-end campaigns while producing procedures, reports, and non-conformance records. Troubleshoots hardware, software, vendor, and interface issues; verifies power, timing, and data interfaces; maintains laboratory and ground support equipment; and trains technicians. Requires electronics testing experience, commercial test-platform expertise, Python automation, protocol knowledge, laboratory instrumentation, soldering, and technical documentation skills.

Develop and validate astrodynamics models across LEO, GEO, cislunar, and multi-body regimes. Generate synthetic observation datasets for machine-learning systems, implement orbit-determination and estimation chains, analyze covariance, observability, and estimator convergence, and define anomalous dynamical behavior. The engineer will collaborate with data science, software, systems engineering, and research-institution partners while contributing physics-based inputs to SDA programs and serving as the technical authority for orbital mechanics.

Develop machine-learning models and analytical pipelines for space domain awareness, including trajectory classification, anomaly detection, benchmarking, calibration, and evaluation under sparse and noisy observations. Integrate models with astrodynamics and embedded systems, optimize inference for constrained onboard hardware, and support model lifecycle, retraining, systems engineering, and operational documentation.

Profiles analytical workflows for deployment on spaceflight and resource-constrained platforms. Measures throughput, memory, latency, and power; identifies bottlenecks; evaluates CPU/FPGA partitioning and acceleration; and assesses algorithm simplification, radiation mitigation, and onboard architectures. Produces defensible trade studies, calibrated confidence metrics, and technology-maturation roadmaps. Collaborates with data science and astrodynamics teams on deployable models, hardware-in-the-loop validation, and spaceflight transition pathways.

Leads global legal strategy for a space, defense, and deep-tech company, overseeing contracts, M&A, international expansion, export controls, compliance, government affairs, fundraising, corporate governance, and legal-function development across multiple jurisdictions. Partners with executive leadership, regulators, and government bodies while supporting market entry and strategic transactions. Requires regular Delhi travel and periodic travel to the US and UK.

Own the strategy, roadmap, prioritization, and global rollout of Digantara’s space-domain-awareness and conjunction-analysis products. Engage defense, government, commercial, insurance, and regulatory customers; define product requirements, positioning, pricing, and success metrics. Partner with algorithms, data science, engineering, sales, and business development teams to convert complex sensor-fusion capabilities into shippable products and measurable customer outcomes. The role requires independent decision-making, strong technical stakeholder management, and ownership of product results.

Own Digantara’s India government sales strategy and revenue growth across defence, space, aerospace, intelligence agencies, ministries, ISRO, and PSUs. Lead relationships, procurement engagement, opportunity shaping, RFI/RFP responses, proposals, negotiations, contracting, and revenue realization. Build and manage the sales team, maintain CRM visibility, shape pricing and positioning, and convert government procurements into repeat business and long-term contracts.

Designs and integrates adaptive optical systems for ground-based space surveillance. Responsibilities include translating mission needs into optical requirements, evaluating adaptive optics architectures, designing relay optics, deriving sensor and actuator requirements, performing tolerance and wavefront-error analyses, defining alignment and testing methods, supporting closed-loop control implementation, laboratory characterization, field testing, telescope commissioning, and documenting designs, interfaces, calibration procedures, and test plans.

Lead HR systems, people analytics, and listening programs to provide a single source of truth for people data. Manage HR tech stack, dashboards, predictive models (attrition, performance), survey architecture and platforms, AI/automation use cases, and cross-functional initiatives like DEI, rewards, EVP, and HR governance.

The Lead Image Processing Engineer will develop and maintain image processing pipelines for Space Situational Awareness applications, ensuring performance, compliance, and collaboration with embedded systems.
