ABOUT ASTROBASE SPACE TECHNOLOGIES

Astrobase is a pioneering spacetech startup founded by prominent Senior ISRO scientists and IIT Bombay alumni with over 20 years of experience in designing, manufacturing, testing and flying advanced Cryogenic Launch Vehicles. Driven by a vision to make India a Space tech powerhouse, we are developing innovative launch vehicles that will transform space exploration. At Astrobase, you’ll be part of a team creating history in the Indian space industry. Our goal is to become the first private space company from India to land on the moon economically.

JOB SUMMARY

Lead development of real-time flight software for a launch vehicle. Responsible for low-level interfacing, protocol stacks, scheduling, and reliable execution on embedded processors under bare-metal, RTOS, and Linux. Requires 6–8 years experience in embedded systems, deep hardware-software integration skills, and strong command over C/C++.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

1.Develop, integrate, and test real-time flight software for launch vehicle avionics

2.Write low-level drivers and interface layers for digital communication protocols (SPI, I2C, UART, RS232/422/485, Ethernet)

3.Implement and debug firmware on bare-metal, RTOS (e.g., FreeRTOS), and embedded Linux platforms

4.Design deterministic task scheduling, state machines, and fault-tolerant logic for critical avionics

5.Interface with sensors (IMUs, pressure, temperature), actuators, and flight computers

6.Own board bring-up, debugging using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and JTAG

7.Work closely with GNC, hardware, and systems engineers to implement real-time control loops and communication protocols

8.Write modular, portable, and testable embedded C/C++ code with adherence to software quality standards

9.Support simulation integration (SIL/HIL) and validation efforts with hardware teams

DESIRED SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS

•6–8 years of experience in embedded software development for real-time and safety-critical systems

•Strong proficiency in Embedded C/C++, memory management, and peripheral programming

•Hands-on experience with bare-metal, RTOS, and embedded Linux development

•Expertise in protocols like SPI, I2C, UART, RS232/422/485, CAN, Ethernet

•Familiarity with PTP, TSN (Time Sensitive Networking) and deterministic Ethernet stacks

•Proficiency in working with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG/SWD, and in-system debuggers

•Familiarity with build systems (Make/CMake), version control (Git), and CI/CD workflows

•Ability to write robust and deterministic code under real-time constraints

PREFERRED SKILLS

•Experience in developing fault-tolerant architectures, watchdog recovery, voting logic

•Exposure to safety-critical development processes (e.g., DO-178C, MISRA)

•Experience with unit testing frameworks, static/dynamic analysis tools

•Familiarity with containerized builds (Docker), cross-compilation, and DevOps in embedded projects

•Prior experience in space / medical / automotive systems

•Exposure to Rust programming language for embedded or safety-critical systems is a plus
