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.

MANUFACTURING ENGINEER (STARLINK) - 2ND SHIFT

SpaceX is developing a low-latency, broadband internet system to meet the needs of consumers across the globe. Enabled by a constellation of low Earth orbit satellites, Starlink will provide fast, reliable internet to populations with little or no connectivity, including those in rural communities and places where existing services are too expensive or unreliable. We are looking for talented, creative, and driven manufacturing engineers to drive manufacturing tools and processes, from initial concept development to full-scale production, and will interact regularly with senior leadership during critical design phases. You will own the relationship between the engineering development and production teams. The success of Starlink depends on the quality, reliability, cost, manufacturability, throughput, security, and user experience of the products that you deliver.

If you seek a fast-paced, dynamic environment; if you thrive on solving difficult problems where resolutions have high impact; if you love managing through persuasion, and if you love the challenge of building something from scratch, then this role will be an ideal next career step.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Design and implement electro-mechanical assembly and test processes
  • Collaborate with the mechanical design team to incorporate design for manufacturability
  • Lead prototype builds ensuring incremental milestones for the production development are met
  • Ensure manufacturing systems are capable of hitting high volume rate, cost, and quality targets
  • Lead facilities development, floor layout, headcount requirements, and material flow definition
  • Identify tooling and hardware requirements, design and implement them into production processes
  • Identify automation opportunities and establish requirements as well as evaluate return on investment for each
  • Work with in-house resources or vendors as necessary to develop these solutions and implement on the production line

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Bachelor's degree in an engineering discipline
  • 1+ years of experience in a manufacturing environment via professional work experience, project/research-based student experience, or a combination of both

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

  • Demonstrated experience working in a highly adaptive and iterative environment
  • Proven excellence in a high-volume commercial or automotive manufacturing environment
  • Experience transitioning products from design to manufacturing and scaling to high volume as part of a cross-functional team
  • Experience with DOE, gage R&R, and process qualifications
  • Experience defining production data requirements and SPC
  • Ability to design tooling for high-volume manufacturing
  • Demonstrated experience implementing automation into production processes
  • Experience integrating electromechanical or lamination assemblies with both manual and automated processes
  • Ability to develop and maintain high-performing suppliers and contract manufacturers
  • Experience with NX and Teamcenter
  • Experience working with and defining requirements for ERP, MRP, and MES systems

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

  • Must be available one or more of the following shifts: C shift, 5 pm - 5 am Sunday-Tuesday, every other Wednesday D shift, 5 pm - 5 am Thursday-Saturday, every other Wednesday
  • Willing to work weekend and extended hours as needed
  • Able to travel for business trips up to 10%

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.
