About this role

Fluids Engineer San Carlos, California, San Carlos, California, United States Fluids Engineer 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: As a Fluids Engineer focused on propulsion, you will play a critical role in designing and analyzing fluid systems that enable spacecraft maneuverability, station-keeping, and mission longevity. You will work on propellant storage, transfer, and control systems, helping define how our vehicles operate efficiently and reliably in space over extended missions. You will collaborate closely with a cross-functional team of propulsion, avionics, and spacecraft systems engineers to develop next-generation fluid and propulsion architectures that support Cowboy Space Corp's unique mission profile. Responsibilities: - Design and analyze propulsion-related fluid systems, including propellant storage, distribution, and pressurization architectures - Develop and run fluid and thermo-fluid models to evaluate system performance across mission phases - Support
