Job description

️ About Orbitt Space

Orbitt Space is building next-generation satellite platforms for Ultra Low Earth Orbit (ULEO) and in-space propulsion systems. Founded by ex-ISRO engineers, we are reimagining access to space with compact, intelligent, and sustainable satellite buses and propulsion systems designed for orbital longevity and cost efficiency.

We are looking for a Founder’s Office member to work closely with the CEO and leadership team on strategic, operational, and fundraising initiatives. This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives in dynamic environments, loves solving complex problems, and wants to help shape the future of India’s private space sector.

⚡ Role Overview

As part of the Founder’s Office, you will act as a strategic extension of the CEO — driving critical initiatives across strategy, fundraising, operations, and grant management. You’ll play a key role in proposal drafting, investor communication, and organizational development.

This is a founder-track role designed for individuals who can think strategically, execute independently, and operate like an entrepreneur.

Key Responsibilities

1. Strategic Planning & Business Execution

  • Collaborate with founders on company strategy, OKRs, and business roadmaps.
  • Support fundraising efforts — investor research, pitch deck development, and due diligence documentation.
  • Conduct industry and competitor analysis to identify market opportunities and partnerships.

2. Grant Documentation & Proposal Drafting

  • Prepare and manage grant proposals, technical documents, and project submissions for government and institutional programs (ISRO, IN-SPACe, DST, DRDO, etc.).
  • Maintain compliance with grant requirements and ensure timely report submissions.
  • Coordinate with internal teams and external agencies for proposal inputs and data collection.

    • 3. Investment-Ready Operations

  • Build and streamline processes that make Orbitt Space investment-ready — including documentation, data room setup, and performance metrics.
  • Support financial modeling, forecasting, and milestone-based tracking for investor discussions.
  • Assist in aligning operational plans with fundraising goals and investor expectations.

    • 4. Operations & Cross-Functional Execution

  • Drive cross-team projects across engineering, procurement, and R&D.
  • Identify execution bottlenecks and ensure timely milestone delivery.
  • Manage vendor coordination, government liaison, and institutional partnerships.

    • 5. Communication & Stakeholder Management

  • Prepare executive summaries, investor updates, board decks, and internal reports.
  • Manage cross-department communication, meeting follow-ups, and deliverable tracking.
  • Draft formal documentation and correspondence with clarity and precision.

    • 6. Organizational Development

  • Help design internal dashboards, workflows, and performance systems.
  • Contribute to hiring, onboarding, and shaping organizational culture.

    • Minimum Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Management, or related disciplines (Aerospace, Electrical, Mechanical, or Electronics preferred).
  • 2–6 years of experience in consulting, strategy, operations, or startup environments.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills are mandatory.
  • Excellent analytical, organizational, and problem-solving abilities.
  • Proficiency with tools like Excel / Google Sheets, PowerPoint / Slides, Notion, Jira (Atlassian), or Asana.

    • Preferred Experience

  • Prior exposure to deeptech, aerospace, or hardware startups.
  • Experience with fundraising, investor relations, or government project proposals.
  • Familiarity with grant writing, technical documentation, or project reporting.
  • Knowledge of financial modeling, OKR frameworks, or program management.
  • Passion for space technology and system-level problem-solving.

    • Who You Are

  • A generalist problem-solver who can move between strategy and execution.
  • A self-starter with high ownership and the ability to thrive in ambiguity.
  • Excellent communicator — articulate in both written and spoken form.
  • Driven by curiosity, purpose, and a desire to contribute to India’s growing space ecosystem.

    • What You’ll Gain

  • Work directly with the founding team (ex-ISRO engineers).
  • Exposure to satellite development, propulsion technology, and grant management.
  • Hands-on experience in fundraising, strategy, and startup operations.
  • Fast-track career growth in one of India’s most promising space tech startups.
