bangalore, India Digantara Full time
Digantara is building the world’s first maps for space, Space-Mission Assurance Platform™ (Space-MAP™). Space-MAP™ represents a revolutionary end-to-end infrastructure for sustainable space operations, offering a comprehensive space situational awareness solution that simplifies and strengthens satellite operations in the face of the rapidly expanding commercialization of space.
Deployment and efficient operation of SSA sensors in orbit are essential for obtaining a comprehensive picture of the near-earth environment.
Digantara is looking for a Space Mission Operations Engineer to work on the planning and execution of our space-based SSA infrastructure. The mission operations engineer will provide expertise to ensure the smooth and well-planned operation of Digantara’s space-based assets.
Why Us? Competitive incentives, galvanizing workspace, blazing team, frequent outings—pretty much everything that you have heard about a startup + you get to work on satellites.
Hustle in a well-funded startup with a flat hierarchy that allows you to take charge of your responsibilities and create your own moonshot.
Responsibilities
  • Prepare detailed mission plans and flight procedures for nominal and contingency operations for Digantara’s space missions.

  • Support ground segment design and test, including command and control, mission data processing, and the associated infrastructure to support all activities.
  • Interface with ground station networks, spacecraft manufacturers, and payload development teams to ensure smooth coordination of mission activities.
  • Conduct critical ground segment testing, including radio-frequency compatibility testing, remote ground facility interface testing, and acceptance testing of critical ground assets/locations
  • Participate in formal Mission Rehearsal events to train the mission team and validate the mission design
  • Contribution to operational documentation (Flight Operational Handbook, Mission Operations Plan, Commissioning and Decommissioning Plans, etc.)

Required Qualifications
  • Bachelors or Masters degree in science and engineering-related programs.
  • Prior experience in space mission operations, satellite systems engineering, or AIT
  • Deep understanding of satellite subsystems
  • Knowledge of orbital mechanics
  • Proficient in Python or any other scripting language.
