Role Overview: Join Azista Space, a transformative force in the global aerospace sector, as the Lead Mechanical Engineer Satellite Structures & Space Systems. You will be responsible for designing and qualifying next-generation low-earth-orbit (LEO) satellite platforms. This role offers you the opportunity to work on high-impact projects at the forefront of aerospace innovation, collaborating with multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver reliable and manufacturable flight-ready systems. Key Responsibilities: - Lead the mechanical design and development of satellite bus structures, payload enclosures, chassis, panels, brackets, and deployable systems - Drive end-to-end spacecraft structural architecture from concept design through qualification and launch readiness - Develop high-precision 3D CAD models and production drawings using CATIA V5, SolidWorks, and GD&T best practices - Execute advanced Finite Element Analysis (FEA) using ANSYS Mechanical and NASTRAN for static, modal, random vibration, frequency response, and shock loads - Define and manage spacecraft structural qualification campaigns aligned with ECSS, GEVS, and GSFC standards - Plan, support, and review environmental testing including vibration, acoustic, shock, sine-burst, and thermal-mechanical qualification activities - Own spacecraft mass budget tracking and drive structural optimization initiatives without compromising mission reliability - Design and qualify critical spacecraft mechanisms including HDRMs, hinges, deployment systems, antenna pointing systems, and solar array drive assemblies - Collaborate closely with Thermal, Avionics, Integration, Manufacturing, and Systems Engineering teams to ensure subsystem compatibility and mission success - Create and review mechanical ICDs, assembly procedures, manufacturing documentation, and structural verification reports - Lead Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) activities with internal manufacturing teams and external aerospace suppliers - Participate in technical reviews including PDR, CDR, qualification reviews, and customer/agency design audits - Mentor and guide junior mechanical engineers while helping establish scalable aerospace engineering processes and standards Qualifications & Skills: - Education: B.E. / B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related discipline. M.Tech / Masters specialization in Structural or Aerospace Engineering preferred - Experience: 8+ years of experience in aerospace mechanical engineering, spacecraft structural design, or flight hardware development. Proven experience delivering mechanical systems for satellite, rocket, UAV, or aerospace programs. Hands-on involvement in spacecraft environmental qualification and structural verification activities. Experience working with launch vehicle interfaces such as ISRO PSLV/SSLV or equivalent systems preferred - Technical Skills: Expert-level proficiency in CATIA V5, SolidWorks, or equivalent CAD platforms. Strong expertise in FEA tools including ANSYS Mechanical, NASTRAN, and Patran pre/post-processing. Deep understanding of spacecraft structural design methodologies, launch environments, and space qualification workflows. Strong knowledge of ECSS-E-ST-32, GEVS, GSFC, and aerospace structural verification standards. Expertise in GD&T, tolerance analysis, and engineering drawing standards (ISO 1101 / ASME Y14.5). Familiarity with aerospace-grade materials including Al-7075, CFRP composites, Ti-6Al-4V, and Invar. Experience with PDM/PLM systems, EBOM management, and aerospace manufacturing workflows. Knowledge of fastener locking mechanisms, torque specifications, and spacecraft deployment systems - Soft Skills: Strong leadership, stakeholder management, and technical decision-making capabilities. Excellent technical documentation and engineering review skills. Ability to manage multiple high-priority aerospace deliverables in fast-paced R&D environments. Collaborative mindset with strong cross-functional communication abilities.
