Agnikul Cosmos is a company incubated at IIT Madras and we build rockets that can take satellites up to 500 kg to Lower Earth Orbit (LEO). In May 2024, we successfully completed our maiden launch from our own launchpad (India's first private launchpad). The launch has proven all the new technologies developed by Agnikul and also earned recognition from Honourable Prime Minister of India.
If you enjoy writing software that directly interacts with hardware, debugging systems at the register level, analyzing packets on Ethernet networks, and building reliable embedded platforms from the ground up, we'd like to talk to you.
We are looking for engineers who are passionate about low-level programming and embedded systems. This role involves developing firmware and software for embedded platforms, integrating hardware and software components, and building robust communication systems used in mission-critical applications.
Requirements
- Strong experience in Embedded C and C++.
- Solid understanding of microprocessors and bare-metal programming.
- Hands-on experience with Linux and familiarity with POSIX APIs.
- Experience working with: UART, RS-232, RS-422, SPI, Ethernet
- Strong understanding of networking protocols: TCP/IP UDP TSN (Time Sensitive Networking)
- Understanding of time synchronisation protocols: PTP, NTP
- Experience developing or debugging: Device Drivers, BSPs (Board Support Packages)
- Strong understanding of DMA, Timers, GPIOs
- Experience with hardware-software integration and debugging.

What We Do
At AgniKul, we design, manufacture, test and launch orbital class rockets for micro and nano satellites. We currently work out of the National Center for Combustion R&D at IIT-Madras. Rocket scientists, engineers, ex-bankers and space lawyers are a part of our team. This unique blend of people is one of our biggest strengths. Our goal is to make space affordable for everyone in India.
