Digital Twin Analyst – Combat Jet & Cryogenic Engines
Location: Pune, India (Hybrid / Remote options available)
Scope of Work
We are seeking a Digital Twin Analyst to develop and maintain digital threads for next-generation aerospace propulsion systems, including single-shaft combat jet engines and cryogenic rocket engines. This role will involve working with physics-based simulation models, real-time telemetry integration, and AI-driven predictive diagnostics to ensure mission readiness and operational excellence.
Nature of Work
- Develop digital twins of gas turbines and cryogenic turbopumps using multi-physics modeling tools
- Integrate sensor data into the digital thread for real-time condition monitoring
- Collaborate with structural, thermal, and aero teams to ensure fidelity of virtual replicas
- Apply AI/ML models for remaining useful life (RUL) estimation and anomaly detection
- Create feedback loops between simulation, testbeds, and flight data
- Develop dashboards for engine health, performance, and predictive maintenance
- Ensure compliance with MIL-STD digital integration frameworks and cybersecurity protocols
Job Requirements
- B.E./B.Tech or M.E./M.Tech in Aerospace, Mechanical, Software Engineering, or Data Science
- 2+ years of experience in digital twin development or physics-based simulations (freshers with project experience may apply)
- Familiarity with tools such as Modelica, MATLAB/Simulink, or ANSYS Twin Builder
- Knowledge of control systems, sensor fusion, and signal processing
- Experience with Python and AI/ML libraries like TensorFlow, PyTorch, or SciKit-learn
- Understanding of thermodynamic cycles and turbomachinery fundamentals is a plus
- Experience working with cloud platforms and edge computing (AWS, Azure, etc.)
- Strong analytical, documentation, and cross-functional communication skills
Eligibility
- Indian nationals or individuals authorized to work in India
- Passion for aerospace digitalization and indigenous innovation
- Preference given to candidates with prior experience in defense, propulsion, or digital thread development
