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.

**ELECTROMAGNETIC ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS TEST SPECIALIST (EMI/EMC)**

As a member of our fast-paced Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) team, you will be responsible for ensuring avionics hardware performance across our fleet of vehicles (Dragon, Falcon, Starship, Human Landing System, etc.) through some of the harshest and varied electromagnetic environments imaginable.
