Your office: 3,800 metres above sea level.
We offer competitive benefits, unmatched professional development and the chance to work where Earth most resembles another planet. At least 30% of our participants are Nepali, as is a deliberate share of our hires, with local hiring in Mustang.
Lead analog missions at MARS-1: brief crews, run EVA operations, supervise habitat protocols and keep six people safe, productive and mission-focused at 3,800 m.
You bring: prior analog mission or expedition experience, wilderness first aid or equivalent, comfort teaching mixed international groups, fluency in English (Nepali a strong plus). AA-400 certification can be completed on the job.
You get: instructor rating, published mission credits, housing during rotations and a role in writing the operations manual for Asia's first open analog station.
Build the test infrastructure that certifies South Asia's satellites as space-ready: thermal-vacuum, vibration and cleanroom integration workflows in the Kathmandu Valley facility.
You bring: a degree in aerospace, mechanical or electrical engineering, hands-on test or integration experience (university cubesat programmes count) plus the discipline to write procedures other people can follow.
You get: ground-floor ownership of a national facility, vendor-facing responsibility from day one and a direct line to agency and university customers.
Own the supply line that keeps MARS-1 running: crew transport from Kathmandu to the shelf, food and water budgets, fuel, permits, local hiring and relationships with Mustang communities.
You bring: logistics or expedition management experience in remote Nepal, strong negotiation in Nepali, spreadsheet discipline and calm under weather delays.
You get: full ownership of a mission-critical function, a seat in mission planning and a mandate to hire locally.
