SpaceX is on a mission to revolutionize space exploration, driven by the vision of making human life multi-planetary. We are actively developing cutting-edge technologies to facilitate this ambitious goal.
As a Guidance Navigation and Control Operations Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in managing and enhancing essential mission-critical systems for our Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) operations. The GNC team is responsible for trajectory design, vehicle simulation, and supporting critical launch operations.
This position involves collaborating closely with the GNC team to maintain and optimize a suite of specialized tools designed for GNC applications. Key products include high-performance Monte Carlo simulations, automated data analysis systems, and continuous integration frameworks for rocket and simulation software.
Key Responsibilities:
- Deploy, upgrade, and maintain a range of mission-critical GNC products and services.
- Provision and manage both virtual and physical server environments.
- Collaborate with the HPC team to oversee a large-scale computing cluster.
- Work alongside GNC software engineers to ensure the operability and maintainability of products.
- Implement monitoring solutions for web applications and respond to system outages.
- Manage GNC's computational infrastructure in partnership with IT.
- Engage in the complete service lifecycle, from design to deployment and continuous improvement.
- Advise on future hardware acquisitions.
- Conduct sustainable incident response and postmortem analyses.
- Provide expert end-user support for GNC engineering applications.
- Configure automated deployment pipelines for web applications.
- Enhance GNC web applications and tools for improved usability and robustness.
- Document and demonstrate new software updates and changes.
- Focus on identifying and resolving performance bottlenecks.
Basic Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in computer science, information systems, engineering, mathematics, or a related field, with a minimum of 2 years of software development experience, or 4 years of relevant professional experience in lieu of a degree.
- Proficiency with Linux operating systems.
- Experience in Python and associated development frameworks.
Preferred Skills and Experience:
- At least 2 years of experience in systems administration, site reliability engineering, or DevOps.
- Familiarity with Docker, Vagrant, and Kubernetes or similar technologies.
- Experience with configuration management tools such as Ansible, Puppet, or Terraform.
- Understanding of virtualization technologies and databases.
- Strong networking knowledge, particularly TCP/IP.
- Experience in scaling web applications and optimizing performance.
- Comfortable working with mission-critical systems and sensitive data.
Compensation and Benefits:
We offer a competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package, including medical, vision, and dental coverage, a 401(k) retirement plan, and paid parental leave. Employees also enjoy vacation time and paid holidays.
SpaceX is committed to equal opportunity employment and values diversity in our workforce. We encourage applicants from all backgrounds to apply.
