EEE Parts Reliability Engineer

Join SpaceX's mission to make humanity interplanetary as an EEE Parts Reliability Engineer. As a key member of our multidisciplinary team, you will be responsible for ensuring the reliability of flight components, from design to implementation.

Responsibilities:
  • Provide technical guidance and support to the EEE Parts Reliability team
  • Drive Avionics EEE piece part reliability issues and risks towards closure
  • Coordinate with external customers on reliability risk assessments and EEE part approvals
  • Use reliability physics of failure models and reliability statistics to assess risk levels to the mission for components and solder joints
  • Advise EEE customers on parts selection based on part reliability and manufacturing processes
  • Independently apply technical concepts to resolve complex issues and make decisions in creative and effective ways
  • Interface with SpaceX departments such as supply chain, design engineers, and production/manufacturing
  • Support failure analysis and destructive physical analysis investigations to provide corrective actions and paths to closure
  • Develop accelerated test profiles for component-level screening and qualification testing
  • Perform accelerated testing of components and solder joints and develop derating specifications for components
  • Process issues within SpaceX's non-conformance system for items requiring failure analysis investigations and DPA
  • Coordinate, drive, and perform EEE parts root cause failure analysis and DPA from initial assessment to a Corrective Actions report in EEE's internal Failure Analysis / Destructive Physical Analysis Lab
  • Evaluate electrical, thermal, and mechanical characteristics of integrated circuits, components, sub-components, and PCBAs to determine root cause of failure
  • Generate failure reports and recommend corrective actions to prevent recurrence of problems
  • Leverage failure analysis and DPA results to interact with design, process, and production teams to implement corrective actions, containment efforts, and risk assessments
  • Serve as technical failure analysis and DPA liaison within the SpaceX certification program
  • Identify optimum analytical approaches to critical problems
  • Develop methods to track metrics on all known failure analyses and DPA's to resolve systematic issues and their root cause
  • Conduct innovative use of new analytical tools, equipment, and methodologies
  • Maintain and oversee failure analysis lab equipment calibration, consumables, and safety practices
  • Operate autonomously and safely all EEE Failure Analysis / Destructive Failure Analysis Lab equipment, tools, and machinery
Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree in reliability engineering, mechanical engineering, material science, physics, electrical engineering, or applied engineering
  • 1+ years of experience with EEE part reliability, failure analysis, DPA, and qualification; or EEE part design and construction, wafer fabrication, electronic packaging, electronic materials; or materials characterization, material stress testing, or material stress analysis
Preferred Skills and Experience:
  • Master's degree or PhD in reliability engineering, mechanical engineering, material science, physics, electrical engineering, or applied engineering
  • 3+ years of experience with EEE parts reliability engineering in commercial, automotive, military, and/or aerospace industries
  • Fundamental knowledge of failure modes and mechanisms in active and passive EEE parts
  • Medium-scale data management and manipulation (SQL, JIRA, etc.)
  • Strong and effective verbal, written, and interpersonal communication skills
  • Experience with physics of failure approach to reliability
  • Experience with accelerated environmental screening and qualification techniques, and corresponding acceleration factors
  • Experience in a wafer fabrication, EEE part production, design, assembly, packaging, and testing facilities
  • Knowledge of manufacturing qualification and process controls and the differences between commercial, automotive, military, and space grade EEE parts
Additional Requirements:
  • Must be able to work extended hours and weekends as needed
Compensation and Benefits:

Base salary is just one part of your total rewards package at SpaceX. You may also be eligible for long-term incentives, in the form of company stock, stock options, or long-term cash awards, as well as potential discretionary bonuses and the ability to purchase additional stock at a discount through an Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
