• Ability to manage multiple documents and deadlines with attention to detail.
• Curiosity and willingness to learn technical/scientific subject matter quickly.

Good to Have

• Sample writing portfolio (blogs, reports, documentation, or academic papers).
• Familiarity with project management artifacts such as PERT/Gantt charts, design review formats, or delivery documentation.
• Interest in space, aerospace, or defense sectors.

Responsibilities

• Assist in drafting and formatting project documentation-Preliminary Design Review (PDR) and Critical Design Review (CDR) documents, project reports, PERT charts, delivery/dispatch documentation, and handover documentation under guidance.
• Support creation and upkeep of product manuals, user guides, SOPs, and internal process documentation.
• Convert engineering notes, specs, and SME (subject matter expert) inputs into clear, structured written content.
• Sit in on project reviews and engineering discussions to understand project status, product functionality, and client requirements.
• Maintain document version control, formatting consistency, and a project documentation library.
• Proofread and edit technical content for clarity, tone, and grammar.
