The opportunity
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.
What you'll do
Use CAM to program and generate G-Code for Okuma mill-turn lathes and mills,: with a focus on optimizing complex, multi-axis programs
Create and refine tooling and process setup sheets for new part: introductions, incorporating lessons learned from prior iterations
Set-up, prove out, and operate programs on Okuma mill-turn lathes and mills,: troubleshooting issues independently to minimize downtime
Contribute to the development and utilization of a CAM database for efficient: new part programming, including data analysis to improve repeatability
Review quality concerns from piece part inspection, lead root-cause analysis,: and implement corrective actions to processes
Analyze piece parts for DFM to ensure optimization for manufacturing;: collaborate closely with engineering to recommend and implement drawing changes
What they're looking for
- Integrate feedback from engineering and production to rapidly iterate on part: processes and designs, mentoring junior programmers on best practices
- Pursue and share continuous education opportunities; stay up to date on the: latest manufacturing technologies and integrate them into team workflows
- Proactively keep products moving, identify potential production inhibitors: early, and propose solutions to management
- Maintain physical 5S and electronic organization with adherence to: shop/SpaceX standards; assist in developing and enforcing standards for broader team adoption
