The Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA) is on the lookout for a seasoned propulsion expert to contribute to its ambitious projects. The selected candidate will play a pivotal role in driving propulsion-related activities for the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) and the Twin Engine Deck Based Fighter (TEDBF).
Interestingly, the job description also includes a significant component dedicated to the integration of the Kaveri engine into the Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) Tejas. This task is projected to span over two years post the contract signing.
The hiring of a senior domain expert underscores ADA’s commitment to mastering propulsion technology, a critical aspect of any advanced fighter aircraft. This move is expected to accelerate the development of these indigenous platforms, enhancing India’s self-reliance in the aerospace sector.
As the nation strives to build a robust defense industrial base, the recruitment of top talent like this is seen as a strategic step towards achieving technological independence.
