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
Maintain accuracy and audit bill of materials (BOM) in material requirements: planning (MRP) systems for PCB, PCBA, and electronic subassemblies in preparation for satellite and subassembly rate production
Pull and aggregate the overall demand picture for PCB/PCBA and related: electronic hardware to produce an accurate demand signal that supports rate production
Establish and manage inventory level targets, review line of balances, align: demand–supply signals and allocations, maintain product master data, and develop expertise in SpaceX software, systems, and reporting tools
Identify and mitigate risk to ensure continuity of supply by constructing and: executing a supply plan that meets quality standards and production deadlines—including long-lead board materials, fab/assembly capacity constraints, and component availability
Develop expertise in MRP, triage planning signals, understand the planning: matrix, and educate the teams we support on proper use of MRP and its benefit to the business
Coordinate with engineering, production, quality, and sourcing organizations: to determine change cut-in, reduce obsolescence of board-level material, and eliminate/reduce quality issues
What they're looking for
- Partner with internal stakeholders (including procurement/sourcing) on: advanced supply chain strategies for risk mitigation—such as long-term supply coverage, strategic safety stock, and readiness for prototype builds through ramp and mass production
- Ensure manufacturing and the broader supply chain are prepared to support: prototype, pilot, and rate builds with the right material plan, timing, and quantities
- Proactively manage inventory and prevent stock-outs while optimizing utilization of SpaceX working capital
- Develop and maintain strong professional relationships with manufacturing,: engineering, quality, and supply chain teams to achieve mission success
