The posting

SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of enabling human life on Mars.

  • Lead commissioning of fire/life-safety projects from planning through functional and acceptance testing, AHJ witness, and turnover (as-builts, programming, training, and spare parts)
  • Provide oversight of fire protection contractors and related construction, including submittal review, field quality, impairments, and punchlist
  • Coordinate with facilities trades, operations, environmental health and safety (EHS), contractors, and authorities having jurisdiction on installations, upgrades, certifications, and code interpretations
  • Maintain drawings, device lists, calculations, inspection records, permits, and corrective-action logs in an audit-ready state through post-commissioning monitoring
  • Verify assigned buildings and modifications remain compliant with adopted building and fire codes and that installed systems operate as designed
  • Support fire hazard and risk review of materials, processes, storage, and layout changes that affect protection or egress
  • Manage impairments, fire watches, and restoration of protection with documented control of risk

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

  • High school diploma or equivalency certificate
  • 2+ years of experience in the design of fire protection systems, including field installation, inspection, testing, and/or commissioning

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

  • Working knowledge of building and fire codes and NFPA codes and standards (including NFPA 13, 25, 72, 70, and 2001)
  • NICET certification in more than one relevant discipline
  • Ability to program and troubleshoot fire alarm systems
  • Ability to perform or review sprinkler hydraulic calculations and fire alarm or special-hazard design criteria
  • Construction administration experience in an operating facility

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
