Head of Compute Software San Carlos, California, San Carlos, California, United States Head of Compute Software About Cowboy Space Corp.: Cowboy Space Corp. is building the infrastructure to power and connect the orbital economy. Our satellites operate in Low Earth Orbit to collect sunlight and enable a new class of capabilities-from transmitting energy via infrared lasers (space-to-earth and space-to-space), to powering on-orbit compute, to delivering secure, high-bandwidth optical data. By rethinking how energy and data are generated and distributed in space, we're unlocking entirely new ways to operate both in orbit and on Earth. Founded in 2024 by Baiju Bhatt (co-founder of Robinhood), Cowboy Space Corp. is backed by leading investors and built by a team from top aerospace and defense organizations. We're moving quickly to solve complex technical challenges and build a new category of space infrastructure. About the role: We are looking for a Head of Compute Software to lead the architecture, development, and deployment of the software systems that power our space-based compute platforms. This role will own the end-to-end software strategy for onboard compute systems, including real-time control, distributed processing, and high-bandwidth data handling in orbit. You will define and build resilient, high-performance software that operates under strict latency, power, and reliability constraints. You will work closely with hardware, spacecraft, and mission teams to ensure seamless integration between software and the underlying compute platforms. This is a critical leadership role with significant ownership over system architecture, team building, and execution. Responsibilities: - Define the technical vision
