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
Build and lead a multidisciplinary team of engineers, operators, technicians,: and maintenance personnel responsible for the reliable operation of sitewide power generation infrastructure.
Own end-to-end performance of power generation systems, including:
Gas-fired turbines (simple-cycle and/or combined-cycle; aeroderivative or: industrial frame), generators, and balance-of-plant.
Natural gas fuel systems (supply, metering, conditioning, and safety systems).
Electrical interconnection (high-voltage switchgear, transformers, protective: relaying, grid interconnection, and islanding/black-start capability).
Emissions control, auxiliary systems, and backup/emergency generation.
What they're looking for
- Lead procurement and construction activities for power generation equipment: and infrastructure, including specification development, vendor/OEM selection, contract management, construction oversight, and delivery to support aggressive site schedules.
- Drive strategic planning, capital project execution, and expansion of: generation capacity to match aggressive manufacturing ramp-up schedules, including new system design reviews, commissioning, and integration with site electrical distribution.
- Establish and continuously improve preventive, predictive, and: condition-based maintenance programs for turbines, generators, and balance-of-plant to achieve world-class uptime and minimal unplanned downtime.
- Ensure full compliance with all federal, state, and local environmental: regulations, air permitting, emissions monitoring, and SpaceX internal standards.
