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
Partner deeply with responsible engineers, silicon architects, and hardware: teams to co-define commodity strategy, multi-year technology roadmaps, and approved vendor lists for GPUs and AI accelerators, ensuring supply plans anticipate next-generation silicon, packaging, and interconnect roadmaps 12–24 months ahead
Own global sourcing end-to-end, including aggressive supplier qualification,: dual/multi-sourcing strategies, and performance management to deliver unprecedented on-time delivery and lead-time compression while supporting SpaceX's record-breaking cluster build cadence
Stay at the forefront of industry trends in AI silicon, advanced packaging,: high-bandwidth memory, and accelerator architectures, then translate these into actionable strategies that keep SpaceX at the bleeding edge of compute performance and efficiency from total cost of ownership and maximize the tokenomics
Negotiate transformative commercial agreements that include not only pricing: and volume, co-development commitments, early access to pre-production silicon, priority allocation during industry shortages, and long-term capacity reservations
Deploy predictive analytics, AI-driven demand forecasting, and real-time: supply chain visibility tools to anticipate and mitigate risks (geopolitical, capacity, yield, wafer starts, or technology transition) before they impact build schedules
Act as a force multiplier across the organization by mentoring: cross-functional teams on supply chain best practices and fostering a culture of ownership, speed, and technical depth
What they're looking for
- Bachelor’s degree and 6+ years of experience working in one or more of the: following; or 10+ years of experience working in one or more of the following: Business
- + years of experience in global supply chain, procurement, sourcing, or: commodity management, with a focus on semiconductors, GPUs, AI accelerators, or high-performance computing hardware
- Strong technical understanding of GPU/accelerator architectures, advanced: packaging (e.g., CoWoS, HBM), wafer fabrication, and the semiconductor supply ecosystem
- Proven track record managing sourcing for leading-edge silicon or accelerator: technologies in hyperscale environments
