We are seeking an experienced professional to lead the development and delivery of high-reliability Attitude Determination and Control Systems (ADCS) subsystems across multiple satellite missions. The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of spacecraft dynamics and control, combined with hands-on experience working with flight hardware and simulation tools.

Key Responsibilities:
- Define ADCS system architecture that meets mission-level pointing accuracy and stability requirements.
- Lead the development and validation of estimation and control algorithms for attitude determination and control.
- Review and guide sensor calibration routines, alignment procedures, and actuator control strategies.
- Own and manage end-to-end ADCS simulations using tools such as Basilisk, MATLAB/Simulink and custom Python frameworks.
- Oversee mission profile analysis, orbit maneuver planning, and validation using GMAT, STK, or similar platforms.
- Mentor and guide a growing team of ADCS engineers as well as working closely with engineers across various disciplines.
- Coordinate hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) setups, qualification campaigns, and environmental testing in collaboration with avionics and systems teams.
- Provide technical leadership, mentorship, and promote a high-reliability and systems-driven engineering culture.
- Collaborate with the Software team to support integration, testing, and on-orbit commissioning.

Candidate Requirements:
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Aerospace Engineering, Avionics, Controls, or a related field.
- Minimum 6 years of hands-on experience in spacecraft ADCS design, development, and validation.
- Strong grasp of spacecraft dynamics, rigid body kinematics, estimation theory (e.g., EKF, TRIAD) and control techniques.
- Demonstrated experience working with sensors (star trackers, gyros, sun sensors, magnetometers) and actuators (reaction wheels, magnetorquers, thrusters).
- Proficiency in MATLAB, Simulink, Python, and embedded software environments (C/C++).
- Familiarity with mission analysis and design tools such as GMAT, STK, FreeFlyer.
- Experience leading ADCS or subsystem teams in a flight program or mission-critical environment.
- Hands-on experience with spacecraft that have flown or are in advanced integration stages.
- Knowledge of ECSS, ISRO, or other relevant space system standards.
- Exposure to environmental testing protocols such as TVAC, vibration, and fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) strategies.
- Prior experience working in agile hardware/software teams with tight delivery timelines.
