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.

FIRE SAFETY & EMERGENCY RESPONSE TECHNICIAN

The Fire Safety and Emergency Response Technician is a hands-on field role with two co-equal core duties: inspection, testing, maintenance, and commissioning support of fire and life-safety systems, and fire, hazardous-materials, and process-emergency response. This technician keeps fire protection systems in service and provides initial and offensive response capability for manufacturing hazards including pyrophoric gas fires (silane), toxic gas leaks (PH3, AsH3), acid spills, wet-bench fires, and cleanroom/tool incidents. The role works directly with facilities, contractors, operations, and the authority having jurisdiction to protect people and processes in a high-hazard manufacturing environment.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Serve as a dedicated technician with dual core responsibilities: (1) inspection, testing, maintenance, and commissioning support of fire and life-safety systems, and (2) fire, hazardous-materials, and process-emergency response for manufacturing hazards including pyrophoric gas fires (silane), toxic gas leaks (PH3, AsH3), acid spills, wet-bench fires, and cleanroom/tool incidents
  • Perform and manage ITM for fire and life safety systems (sprinklers, suppression, alarms, detection, extinguishers, gas detection, SCBA, and related equipment); complete scheduled testing and maintenance with little or no guidance, close out deficiencies, and support regulatory or insurance inspections
  • Support installation, upgrades, and commissioning of fire protection systems: walkdowns, device checkout, punch lists, functional tests, and turnover
  • Verify that installed systems stay in working order and that impairments are logged, mitigated, and restored
  • Work with facilities teams, fire contractors, and the authority having jurisdiction (fire marshal) on inspections, permits, impairments, and certifications
  • Read drawings, submittals, and test reports well enough to follow a job in the field and flag what does not match
  • Keep inspection, test, and corrective-action records so audits and AHJ visits have a clean paper trail
  • Respond to impairments, leaks, trouble signals, and after-hours issues as the site requires
  • Fill key operational roles during incidents (including HAZMAT technician-level support and technical rescue); perform size-up, specialized gas monitoring, scene control, isolation support, defensive and offensive tactics, foam/dry-chemical application, spill containment, decontamination, and two-in/two-out operations
  • Operate in full structural firefighting PPE + SCBA and Level A/B hazmat suits; maintain accountability, communications, and incident documentation; participate effectively in ICS structure
  • Create and review basic pre-incident plans and JHAs (including HAZMAT scenarios); support emergency action plans, drills, and mutual-aid interface
  • Deliver training to production, operations, and maintenance personnel and participate in live-fire, gas-release, and joint exercises; train new technicians on basic ITM and response tasks as experience grows
  • Perform hot-work watches, confined-space standby, permit support, and other EHS readiness tasks; manage assigned apparatus, equipment, HAZMAT resources, and consumable inventory
  • Collaborate with engineering, operations, facilities, and EHS leadership to proactively ensure fire safety and emergency-response requirements are met and built into company processes

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

  • High-school diploma or equivalent
  • 2+ years installing, inspecting, testing, and/or servicing fire protection systems (sprinkler, fire alarm, and/or special suppression) or equivalent industrial emergency-response experience
  • Ability to obtain ICS 100/200/300 within 90 days of hire

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

  • Experience in semiconductor, solar-cell, or high-hazard process manufacturing emergency response
  • Working knowledge of NFPA standards (e.g., NFPA 13, 25, 72) and basic building/fire code requirements
  • Firefighter I/II certification (IFSAC, ProBoard, or equivalent)
  • Hazardous Materials Technician certification (NFPA 472/1072 or OSHA 1910.120 equivalent)
  • NICET certification in Inspection and Testing, Water-Based Systems, Fire Alarm, or Special Hazards
  • Hands-on time with industrial suppression systems (preaction, clean agent, foam, dry chemical)
  • Confined-space rescue training
  • Knowledge of pyrophoric gas fire tactics, toxic-gas response, and cleanroom operations
  • Intermediate proficiency in Microsoft Office (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook)
  • Additional certifications such as confined-space rescue, EMT, OSHA 10/30, or equivalent preferred

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

  • Must be able to work 12-hour rotating shifts (including nights, weekends, and holidays) plus on-call and extended hours as needed
  • Must be able to work in industrial/manufacturing environments, wear required personal protective equipment (including SCBA and fully encapsulating suits), and pass medical and physical-ability evaluations

ITAR REQUIREMENTS:

  • To conform to U.S. Government export regulations, applicant must be a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful, permanent resident (aka green card holder), (iii) Refugee under 8 U.S.C. § 1157, or (iv) Asylee under 8 U.S.C. § 1158, or be eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.

Why it works

3×

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.
