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 powering on‑orbit compute, to transmitting energy via infrared lasers (space‑to‑earth and space‑to‑space), 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.

The Role

We are seeking an exceptional Principal Power Engineer to lead the design and development of cutting‑edge power conversion and distribution systems for next‑generation terrestrial and space‑based data center infrastructure.



This role focuses on architecting high‑voltage, high‑power DC/DC conversion systems that efficiently distribute solar‑generated and alternative power sources to GPU clusters and advanced computing hardware in both ground‑based and orbital environments. As a senior technical leader, you will drive innovation in power delivery optimization, system architecture, and enable our mission to deliver sustainable, high‑performance computing infrastructure across multiple operational domains.

Responsibilities
- Design and optimize high‑voltage, high‑power DC/DC converter topologies for solar and alternative power sources to GPU power distribution systems in terrestrial and space‑based environments (multi‑kW to MW scale)
- Develop end‑to‑end power conversion architecture from solar/alternative power input through multi‑stage distribution to GPU compute nodes, with consideration for both ground and orbital operational requirements
- Lead design of c
