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
Analyze and track on-orbit hardware failures for the Starlink satellite constellation
Drive root cause investigation for major on-orbit hardware anomalies
Perform electrical bench testing and develop engineering models of failures: to root cause and mitigate hardware anomalies
Work closely with engineers from adjacent disciplines (electrical,: mechanical, thermal, software, test, operations, production) to eliminate sources of on-orbit failure
Drive continual improvements to our constellation by building and using tools: to analyze data collected both on-orbit and in ground testing
Continuously improve the feedback loop from space using a mix of effective communication and automation
