About this role

KaleidEO, a subsidiary of SatSure, is an upstream leader in Earth Observation, building a full-stack company from India. As an analytics-first payload innovator, we specialize in building next-generation, high-resolution, multispectral payloads with edge computing and wide coverage capabilities.
Rooted in SatSure’s legacy of building applications across sectors like Utilities, Agriculture, Aviation, BFSI, and Climate Action, KaleidEO also provides end-to-end EO solutions—from payload development and launch to mission operations and data analytics.
We are looking for a Mechanical Engineering Intern to support the design, configuration analysis and documentation of structures and ground support systems.
This role is ideal for a student or recent graduate who is curious about precision mechanical design and analysis of space systems and wants hands-on exposure to real engineering workflows used in satellite payload development.
You will work closely with mechanical and systems engineers and gain experience across design, analysis, documentation, and reviews.
Responsibilities
  • Assist in mechanical design and detailing of satellite payload structures, optical mounts, enclosures, electronic packages, and Mechanical Ground Support Equipment (MGSE).
  • Support CAD modeling and drawings for parts and assemblies.
  • Assist in the documentation of configurations and analysis results.
  • Help with optical support structure and testing concepts.
  • Assist in documentation:
    1. Design notes
    2. Analysis summaries
    3. Test and review support material (PDR/DDR level)
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (optics, electronics, systems).
Qualifications
  • Currently pursuing or recently completed a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering / Aerospace Engineering.
  • Strong fundamentals in:
    1. Engineering mechanics
    2. Strength of materials
    3. Basic structural analysis
Preferred Skills
  • Exposure to CAD and FEA tools (NX Simcenter or HyperMesh).
  • Interest in or coursework related to:
    1. Space systems
    2. Opto-mechanical design
    3. Precision structures
  • Basic understanding of:
    • Modal behavior
    • Vibration environments
    • Thermal effects on structures
  • Familiarity with Python or MATLAB for basic analysis or post-processing.
  • Prior academic or hobby projects related to satellites, robotics, optics, or mechanisms.
  • Basic understanding of Finite Element Method (FEM) concepts.
  • Comfortable with engineering drawings and dimensions.
  • Willingness to learn, ask questions, and iterate.
What’s in it for you:
  • Hands-on experience with real satellite hardware design workflows.
  • Exposure to opto-mechanical engineering challenges (alignment, stiffness vs flexibility, thermal effects).
  • Understanding of space qualification environments (launch loads, vibration, thermal).
  • Mentorship from experienced engineers.
  • Opportunity to contribute meaningfully to an active engineering program.
Who Should Apply
  • This role is well-suited for someone who:
  • Enjoys problem-solving and structured engineering thinking
  • Is curious about how optical performance and mechanical design interact
  • Wants exposure to space hardware development, even if they’re still learning the tools
