Job Description

Job Title: Senior Systems Engineer

Company: AnduraX

Location: Vijayawada (On-site)

Type: Full-Time

Experience: 5+ Years (Launch Vehicle / Spacecraft / Re-entry Vehicle / Aerospace Systems)

CTC: ₹12–18 LPA (Based on Experience & Expertise)

Start Date: Immediate

ABOUT US

At AnduraX, we’re building India’s first private Re-entry vehicle designed to fly to space, carry experiments and payloads, and return them safely to Earth. We believe the future of space isn’t just about going farther; it’s also about coming back safer. By building a platform that can fly frequently, recover gently, and serve a wide range of commercial and defence needs, we’re opening doors to a space-powered industrial future. As part of our growing team, you will lead multidisciplinary flight systems that integrate aerodynamics, avionics, guidance, propulsion, structures, recovery systems, and mission operations.

ROLE OVERVIEW

As a Systems Engineer, you will play a central technical role in defining, integrating, and evolving the overall architecture of AnduraX's reusable re-entry vehicle. You will be responsible for translating mission objectives into engineering requirements, ensuring every subsystem functions together as a unified flight vehicle, and maintaining technical consistency throughout the product lifecycle. You will own the complete systems engineering process, from mission definition, requirements management, trade studies, and subsystem integration to verification planning and design reviews. Working closely with teams specializing in GNC, avionics, structures, aerodynamics, propulsion, software, and testing, you will ensure the vehicle remains technically balanced, scalable, and aligned with future orbital missions.

This role demands strong technical depth, systems thinking, and the ability to coordinate across multiple engineering disciplines while driving the program's overall technical direction.

This role combines office-based engineering with laboratory, workshop, integration, and field-test activities. Candidates should be comfortable transitioning between analytical work, hardware development, and outdoor flight operations.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Systems Architecture & Requirements Management

Define and maintain the overall architecture of the reusable re-entry vehicle.
Translate mission objectives into clear system and subsystem requirements.
Develop and maintain the Concept of Operations (CONOPS) for demonstration and orbital missions.
Lead architecture trade studies across aerodynamics, recovery systems, avionics, propulsion, structures, and mission operations.
Define subsystem interfaces and maintain Interface Control Documents (ICDs).
Ensure scalability of the vehicle architecture from technology demonstrators to future operational orbital vehicles.
Develop, allocate, and maintain system requirements throughout the program lifecycle.
Own requirement traceability and configuration management.
Maintain vehicle-level engineering budgets including:
- Mass Budget
- Power Budget
- Data Budget
- Thermal Budget
- Performance Margins
Identify technical risks and develop mitigation strategies.
Maintain engineering documentation and configuration baselines.

Mission Design & Vehicle Integration

Support mission planning for atmospheric, high-altitude, and orbital demonstrations.
Define mission profiles, operational timelines, and system-level performance requirements.
Coordinate subsystem integration across:
- Guidance, Navigation & Control
- Avionics
- Flight Software
- Structures
- Aerodynamics
- Propulsion
- Recovery Systems
Ensure compatibility between hardware, software, and operational procedures.

Verification & Validation

Develop system-level verification and validation strategies.
Define qualification and acceptance criteria for engineering and flight hardware.
Develop Verification & Validation (V&V) matrices.
Support Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) and Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) activities.
Ensure subsystem verification satisfies overall mission objectives.

Flight Test Operations

Participate in mission planning and flight readiness activities.
Support vehicle integration, checkout procedures, and launch operations.
Monitor system performance during demonstrations.
Conduct post-flight data analysis and identify system-level improvements.
Support iterative development based on flight test results.

Cross-Functional Leadership

Work closely with GNC, avionics, propulsion, structures, software, and testing teams.
Lead multidisciplinary technical discussions and architecture reviews.
Mentor junior engineers and interns.
Support engineering recruitment and technical interviews.
Establish systems engineering processes, documentation standards, and design review practices.

REQUIREMENTS

B.Tech/M.Tech/PhD in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or related disciplines.
5+ years of experience in re-entry vehicles, spacecraft, launch vehicles, or other complex aerospace systems.
Strong understanding of:
- Systems Engineering Principles
- Requirements Management
- Vehicle Architecture
- Interface Management
- Mission Design
- Verification & Validation
- Technical Trade Studies
- Engineering Risk Management
Experience developing system requirements and subsystem specifications.
Experience managing multidisciplinary engineering interfaces.
Familiarity with complete engineering product development lifecycles.
Strong analytical thinking and structured problem-solving ability.
Excellent technical communication and documentation skills.
Ability to coordinate multiple engineering teams simultaneously.
