As of Aug 17, 2026, the average yearly pay for fluid systems engineer on call in the United States is $127,215.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $98,000.00 and $157,000.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is the difference between Fluid Systems Engineer On Call vs Fluid Systems Technician?

AspectFluid Systems Engineer On CallFluid Systems Technician
CredentialsBachelor's in engineering, certifications like PE or FE often preferredTechnical diploma or associate degree, specialized training
Work EnvironmentDesign, troubleshooting, and support in industrial or manufacturing settings, often on-call for emergenciesMaintenance, installation, and repair in plant or field environments
ResponsibilitiesSystem design, analysis, troubleshooting, and on-call emergency supportRoutine maintenance, repairs, and system inspections

While both roles involve working with fluid systems, the Fluid Systems Engineer On Call focuses on design, analysis, and providing emergency support, often requiring an engineering degree. The Fluid Systems Technician handles hands-on maintenance and repairs, typically with technical training. The engineer is more involved in planning and troubleshooting, whereas the technician executes maintenance tasks.

What does a Fluid Systems Engineer On Call do?

A Fluid Systems Engineer On Call is responsible for monitoring, maintaining, and troubleshooting fluid systems such as pipelines, pumps, and valves to ensure continuous operation. They respond to system alerts, perform diagnostics, and implement repairs or adjustments, often working outside regular hours to minimize downtime. Strong knowledge of fluid dynamics, control systems, and relevant safety protocols is essential for this role.

Job description

ABOUT US:
Astro Mechanica is a vertically integrated aerospace company building a faster, more connected future. Our mission is to democratize high-speed flight by making supersonic travel flexible, accessible, and sustainable. We believe that rapid, on-demand, point-to-point global mobility will become the new standard for moving people and goods across the planet. To achieve this, we are integrating our advanced airframe and engine technologies-which include Dualityโ„ข, our proprietary dual-use propulsion system-with a new flight operations model to make supersonic transport as efficient and economical as commercial air travel is today. In the near term, we are developing adaptable, high-speed systems to close aircraft performance gaps for the United States government.
WHO WE ARE:
We're a team of passionate engineers dedicated to advancing aerospace. We're generalists with specialist depth, united by a flat structure and a shared obsession with building things that work well. We move fast, stay pragmatic, and let engineering excellence speak louder than hierarchy.
WHO YOU ARE
Astro Mechanica is looking for a Senior Fluid Systems Engineer to join our growing team. The ideal candidate is someone who has a deep-seated understanding of complex system dynamics, and can take full ownership of modeling the thermal/fluid network of a novel engine architecture. Your work at Astro Mechanica will have a direct impact on the configuration and performance of the turboelectric adaptive jet engine.
In this role, your mission will be to architect, analyze, build, and test critical fluid systems for the propulsion systems. You will collaborate between propulsion, aircraft, and test teams to deliver optimized fluid hardware for the flight vehicle, proven through rigorous ground testing. You are attentive to detail and enjoy solving nuanced, interconnected problems.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
  • Architect fluid system networks supporting the propulsive engine fuel supply and thermal management
  • Predict behavior through detailed analysis (Amesim, Thermal Desktop, EES, REFPROP)
  • Design custom hardware and establish subsystem testing to validate component performance
  • Mechanical layout of fluid systems while considering design for manufacturing, installation, and maintenance
  • Analyze test data for characterization hardware behavior and performance
  • Improve and maintain the accuracy of simulation models through anchoring to historical and internally generated test data
  • Define instrumentation placement with understanding of measurement limitations
  • Diagnose hardware/software problems efficiently and perform corrective actions

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:
  • 5+ years hands-on experience with fluidic and propulsion systems, test operations
  • Foundational knowledge of fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, and compressible flow
  • Understanding of fluid systems and instrumentation hardware (pressure, temperature, flow meters, pumps, heat exchangers, valves, regulators, pneumatics)
  • Familiarity with test instrumentation, data reduction, and anchoring analysis with experimental results
  • Experience with P&ID's, 0D/1D thermal/fluid networks for gases and liquids
  • Takes initiative for continuous improvement (not just completing assigned tasks)
  • Flexibility to work in fast-paced and high-growth environment
  • Attentive to detail and maintain a high level of quality in all work

PERKS & BENEFITS
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance, including Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)
  • 401(k) program and transparent stock option plan
  • Self-managed and flexible time-off policy, including PTO, paid holidays, and sick time
  • Flexible work environment

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Astro Mechanica is an equal opportunity employer. We proudly recruit and hire a diverse workforce and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
