Hawthorne, California, United States SpaceX Full time

At SpaceX, we're pushing the boundaries of space exploration and development. As an Electrical Engineer on our Starship team, you'll play a critical role in designing and developing the advanced electronics that will enable humanity to become a multi-planetary species.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop high-reliability electronics for rockets and spacecraft
  • Drive system trades, requirements capture, component selection, analysis, schematic capture, prototyping, bring-up, debugging, documentation, manufacturing, and test
  • Create development and qualification testing campaigns and exercise designs to their limits
  • Support hardware through production, integration, and flight
  • Work with experts from other teams and departments to drive changes that make the system more efficient, manufacturable, and reliable

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering
  • 1+ years of experience designing, building, or testing circuit boards or other electronics

Preferred Skills and Experience:

  • Passion for spaceflight and curiosity for electronics in high-reliability applications
  • Experience making products or systems work with minimal time and resources
  • Experience developing fundamentally new hardware, not just incrementally updating legacy hardware
  • Experience with circuit board layout, especially for switching power converters or high-speed digital applications
  • Experience designing switching power converters, power magnetics, analog control loops, solid state load switches, motor inverters, EMI/EMC compliance, or sensor signal conditioning circuits
  • Experience with high voltage devices, lithium ion batteries, or power distribution optimization
  • Experience with high performance digital processors, FPGAs, memory chips, or network switches
  • Experience with circuit board design-for-manufacturing or productization of electronics
  • Experience with automating hardware development functions (e.g. scripting to control benchtop equipment or to accelerate analysis or simulation)

Additional Requirements:

  • Extended hours and weekend work may be required to support critical project and mission milestones

Compensation and Benefits:

At SpaceX, we offer a competitive salary and benefits package, including long-term incentives, comprehensive medical, vision, and dental coverage, access to a 401(k) retirement plan, short & long-term disability insurance, life insurance, paid parental leave, and various other discounts and perks.

ITAR Requirements:

To conform to U.S. Government export regulations, applicant must be a (i) U.S. citizen or national, (ii) U.S. lawful, permanent resident (aka green card holder), (iii) Refugee under 8 U.S.C. * 1157, or (iv) Asylee under 8 U.S.C. * 1158, or be eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
