What this role is
This role involves designing and managing fluid systems for the Terran R rocket, including propellant, pressurant, and pneumatics architecture from concept through flight. You'll own system designs, conduct thermal and fluid analyses, lead reviews, and validate performance through testing—ideal for someone with hands-on experience in spacecraft or launch vehicle fluid systems who wants to see their work directly shape a functioning rocket.
