Astr Defence is building the future of Indian defence technology — from advanced weapon systems to next-generation soldier equipment. We are a Ministry of Defence–awardee deep-tech company where industrial design directly impacts survivability, performance, and mission success.

We are looking for a full-time Industrial Designer
who can blend form, function, ergonomics, and engineering into defence-grade product solutions. This is
not decorative design
— this is real product design for real missions.

What You'll Be Doing

Industrial & Product Design

  • Lead concept development, 3D modelling, and ergonomic design for defence equipment and mission-critical systems.
  • Convert user research and functional requirements into manufacturable designs.
  • Work with materials, form language, durability constraints, and field-ready usability.
  • Collaborate with mechanical, electronics, and systems engineering teams to ensure seamless integration.


Interface & Interaction Design (UI/UX)

  • Contribute to UI/UX for mission-control interfaces, cockpit-style dashboards, and embedded systems.
  • Develop human-machine interaction models optimised for speed, clarity, and precision.


Visual & Communication Design

  • Produce product renders, presentations, and visual narratives that communicate design rationale.
  • Support in design reviews, prototyping documentation, photography, and visualization workflows.

What You'll Bring

  • 1–3 years of experience
    in Industrial Design / Product Design.
  • Strong design thinking, problem-solving, and user-focused development approach.
  • Proficiency in
    SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Rhino
    , or similar CAD tools.
  • Strong skills in
    rendering, prototyping, model-making, and form development
    .
  • Familiarity with
    Adobe Creative Suite, Blender, KeyShot, or Figma
    .
  • Good understanding of
    ergonomics, usability, and design for manufacturing (DFM)
    .
  • Ability to work closely with engineering teams and manage design-to-prototype cycles.
  • Portfolio-first approach
    — we value what you've built and designed.

Bonus Skills:

  • Motion graphics, video editing, product visualization, or technical illustration.
  • Experience designing ruggedized, industrial, or mechanical products.

Why Join Astr Defence?

Design with Purpose

Your design won't sit in a portfolio — it will be used by soldiers on real missions.


High-Impact Work

You'll work across the entire design pipeline: research → concept → CAD → prototype → field-ready product.


Cross-Functional Collaboration

Work with defence experts, engineers, operatives, and veterans in a fast-moving, innovation-driven environment.


Future-Defining Technology

Be part of a young MoD-recognised team developing India's next generation of defence systems, anti-drone tech, and advanced weapon platforms.

Who Should Apply

  • Designers who want to create
    functional, rugged, meaningful products
    .
  • Candidates comfortable working on
    hardware, engineering-heavy products
    , and real-world defence constraints.
  • Immediate joiners
    or those available in under 30 days.
