Senior Electronics Engineer / Lead

Company Description

XSub Robotics is a next-generation defence technology company and a joint venture between Planys Technologies, Krishna Defence and Allied Industries Limited, and Conceptia Software Technologies Pvt. Ltd. XSub develops intelligent autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and advanced maritime robotic systems for naval and security applications, focusing on long-range autonomy, advanced undersea sensing, and mission-critical underwater operations.

At XSub, multidisciplinary engineering teams work across hydrodynamics, propulsion, navigation, perception, autonomy, and mission systems to build indigenous underwater technologies for GPS-denied and high-risk environments. With a fast-paced, product-driven culture, ideas rapidly move from development to real-world sea trials and high-impact defence deployments.

If you're a roboticist or technologist driven to solve complex, mission-critical challenges, not just incremental problems, XSub offers a rare opportunity to build indigenous undersea autonomy platforms from first principles. You'll be part of a small, high-caliber team empowered to move fast, take end-to-end ownership, and push the boundaries of what underwater systems can sense, decide, and achieve in one of the most demanding environments on Earth.
