About the Role
We are building the next-generation Global Satellite Constellation for highly precise and secure Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) using Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites. We are seeking an Assembly & Integration Lead, this is a senior position in charge of complete payload development from a mechanical and electrical perspective. This role requires development of a navigation payload, from process planning, electrical & mechanical analysis, to development and testing. You have product ownership from incoming components till ensuring final payload assembly testing.
Key Responsibilities
- Process planning as per Aerospace standards for development of spacecraft payload.
- Conduct analysis of electrical systems for EMI EMC tests, functional analysis, vibration, thermal, etc. to ensure product and design assurance.
- Take charge of ensuring component incoming inspection (supplier quality), isolated checks, grounding, and unloaded checks.
- Management of day-to-day of unit-level and system-level integration and test operations.
- Build and manage a team of exceptional engineers and technicians to reliably and repeatedly deliver spacecraft payload.
- Collaborate with engineering teams to evaluate proposed designs for manufacturability and integration.
- Work hands-on with flight hardware at build, test and launch sites to ensure mission success
- Ensure availability and readiness of assembly tooling, fixtures, MGSE, EGSE, cleanroom infrastructure, and integration facilities.
- Support harness installation, electrical continuity verification, grounding implementation, and interface validation during integration.
Required Skills & Experience
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Electrical or a relevant technical discipline.
- 3-8 years of professional experience in system-level design, integration or testing of electrical hardware systems.
- Demonstrated ability to both perform AI&T tasks and lead a team of employees supporting AI&T.
- Ability to accurately estimate complexity and duration of AI&T tasks.
- Familiarity with electrical simulations including EMI, EMC, ESD, harness design, simulation and tests.
- Experience with software like Capital, Siemens NX, Catia electrical for simulation and testing.
- Meticulous attention to detail with the ability to interpret technical literature, institutional ICDs, and international legal/regulatory frameworks.
- Strong problem-solving skills and comfort working with uncertain or incomplete tracking observations.
- Familiarity with ECSS, NASA, IPC, or equivalent spacecraft assembly, integration, and workmanship standards is desirable.
