About Rohan Ravikanti
Hi everyone! My name is Rohan and I’ve been passionate for space and space exploration, ever since I could read. Whatever I\'m focused on, I give 100%, and I would love to be able to work either in the space industry, whether it be on satellites, extraterrestrial rovers and orbiters, etc!
Experience
Simulation Software Engineering Intern
Jun 2025 — Present · Houston, TX, US
As part of the Intuitive Machines Simulation Software Team, I help develop, support, and improve our Trick-based 6-DOF Vehicle simulation, also working across teams with Flight Software, and Flight Dynamics / GNC. A few thing\'s I\'ve done include:• Improved the Rotation, Nutation, and Precession (RNP) model for a Trick simulation, by replacing math-based model with JSC Engineering Orbital Dynamics’s (JEOD) high-fidelity SPICE implementation.• Achieved a reduction of range and doppler error by and enabling simulation use for orbit determination.• Ensured model integrity through multi-stage validation utilizing a custom script, JPL’s Monte, and in-house dynamics analysis tools.• Implemented Gaussian noise model within simulation to match realistic noise seen by tracking ground stations.• Implemented models of solar radiation pressure and other disturbances for long term lunar orbiter simulation.• Modularized simulation workflow for improved concurrent development of missions.
