About the role

Cowboy Space Corp. in San Carlos, CA is seeking a Structural Analyst to own the prediction and verification workflow for flight hardware. You will define load cases, perform static strength, fatigue life, and damage-tolerance analyses, and drive model‑based design decisions with clear documentation and repeatable processes. You will build tools and templates, collaborate with propulsion, GNC, and test teams, and ensure test data and measurements are correlated with models to support flight

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
