  • Experience with custom machine design, electromechanical systems, motors, actuators, linear rails, bearings, lifting/rigging, etc.
  • Process integration and electromechanical/mechatronic systems experience.
  • Experience with manufacturing process development, facility/line layouts, and common inspection methods.
  • Experience with production tooling or product design in either prototype or high-volume environments.
  • Experience performing structural analysis in FEMAP, NASTRAN, ANSYS, or NX Advance Simulation.
  • Experience designing mechanisms, welded structures, and mass-efficient structures.
  • Strong understanding and application of drafting standards and GD&T (ASME Y14.5) in creating drawings.
  • Familiarity with mechanical engineering concepts and ability to read drawings and fluid system schematics.
  • Ability to understand and implement solutions with an 'end-user' focus.
  • Ability to adapt to a fast-paced, challenging work environment.
Additional Requirements:
  • Travel to other SpaceX locations as necessary.
