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
Own structural engineering work packages for the production site design and: development, with a heavy focus on integrated high rise facilities: Design elements of multidisciplinary, multistory projects for new construction and modifications to existing structures. This includes all phases of project development, from conceptual feasibility studies, preliminary design through construction completion
Perform standard and complex structural engineering analyses, designs and: calculations using standard methodology and principles and other viable approaches. Our structures are unique with few precedents and aggressive schedules, ability to think outside the box is a must
Perform building level structural analysis and design for large steel and: reinforced concrete buildings, including shallow and deep foundations. The candidate will need to quickly iterate at the conceptual level to drive rapid project development
Create structural design drawings, calculations, and design summary presentations
Estimate material quantities, schedules, and costs for construction projects
Write and manage construction contracts with subcontractors across multiple disciplines
What they're looking for
- Perform project control tasks, including project scheduling, budgeting, and cost control
- Manage multi-discipline design and construction projects, including: coordination of typical systems found in high rise buildings (MEP, HVAC, etc)
- Interact with other engineers, contractors, fabricators, and various stakeholders
- Provide direct onsite field observations and resolve field conflicts in real time
