Job Title: Sr. Electrical Build Reliability Engineer

SpaceX is a pioneering company that aims to make humanity a multi-planetary species. We are seeking a highly skilled Sr. Electrical Build Reliability Engineer to join our team and contribute to the development of cutting-edge avionics hardware.

Job Summary:

The Sr. Electrical Build Reliability Engineer will be responsible for ensuring the reliability and quality of our avionics hardware. This includes collaborating with cross-functional teams to design, test, and validate electrical systems, as well as identifying and mitigating potential reliability risks.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Partner with electrical design engineering and avionics manufacturing teams to improve product reliability through best practices and repeatable process control.
  • Support new product development by prototyping early development hardware to learn design limitations through a HASS-style development.
  • Identify opportunities for risk reduction and removal of complexity in designs and processes to improve manufacturability, collaborating with integrated product teams to drive improvements and address high-impact and repeating non-conformances.
  • Utilize schematics, test equipment, and inspection processes to conduct PCBA test failure investigations, performing structured root cause analysis to identify design, manufacturing, and process changes to prevent future product failures.
  • Lead initiatives for risk reduction and removal of complexity in designs and processes to improve manufacturability, collaborating with integrated product teams to drive improvements and address high-impact and repeating non-conformances.
  • Monitor the yield rate of products and drive corrective action to products not meeting design specifications.
  • Contain suspect or known non-conforming product, providing guidance to quality inspectors, technicians, shop supervisors, and engineers to assist in quarantining and rework activities.
  • Support the shop floor in continuous improvement and the advancing of a Lean, autonomous production system through creation of standard rework/repair guides, removal of redundant or unnecessary inspection, and improved control and optimization of critical processes.
  • Serve as a technical expert in avionics processes to challenge requirements to determine what adds value and what is non-value-added overhead.
  • Work with core avionics to determine the minimum viable sequence of acceptance testing that needs to be performed on flight hardware to guarantee high reliability at the system level.
  • Provide mentorship and guidance to junior engineers on the team.
Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or an engineering discipline with an emphasis in electrical engineering or electronics.
  • 5+ years in a PCBA manufacturing and/or avionics design role with a focus on hands-on hardware support/test/root cause.
  • 3+ years of experience with electrical test equipment (e.g., multimeters, signal generators, oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers) to verify hardware functionality.
Preferred Skills and Experience:
  • Master's degree in electrical engineering or an engineering discipline with an emphasis in electrical engineering or electronics.
  • 8+ years of industry experience working with electronic hardware.
  • Electrical schematic and PCB design (eCAD) software (e.g., Altium, Orcad).
  • Common circuit blocks including filters, power supplies, and microcontrollers.
  • Circuit simulation software (e.g., SPICE, LTSPICE).
  • Ability to troubleshoot PCBA level failures and provide corrective action.
  • PCBA Fabrication experience (familiar with solder, flux, underfill, staking, reflow, temperature control, etc.).
  • Demonstrated application of process controls in high-volume manufacturing, test, and quality environment.
  • Experience with RF test equipment (vector network analyzers and spectrum analyzers).
  • Experience with RF concepts such as S-parameters, impedance matching, and antenna designs.
  • Experience developing or supporting any of the following products/processes: Avionics integration and testing, Analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuit testing, PCBA root cause analysis and testing, Electrical schematic capture and PCB design (eCAD) software (e.g. Altium, Orcad), Design for excellence (DFX), root cause, derating, and related analyses, Digital communications interfaces including SPI, I2C, CAN, Ethernet, and RS422, Battery systems design and assembly, Solar power systems design and assembly, Knowledgeable with IPC standards such as IPC-A-610G, Process automation.
Additional Requirements:
  • Ability to work extended hours, weekends, and offsite as needed.
Compensation and Benefits:

Pay range: Senior: $125,000.00-$175,000.00 per year. Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience. Base salary is just one part of your total rewards package at SpaceX.
