Gateway Manufacturing Specialist (Starlink)

SpaceX • Bastrop, TX • 1w ago

SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of enabling human life on Mars.

GATEWAY MANUFACTURING SPECIALIST (STARLINK)

At SpaceX we're leveraging our experience in building rockets and spacecraft to deploy Starlink, the world's most advanced broadband internet system. Starlink is the world's largest satellite constellation and is providing fast, reliable internet to 10M+ users worldwide. We design, build, test, and operate all parts of the system - thousands of satellites, consumer receivers that allow users to connect within minutes of unboxing, and the software that brings it all together. We've only begun to scratch the surface of Starlink's potential global impact and are looking for best-in-class engineers to help maximize Starlink's utility for communities and businesses around the world.

The success of Starlink depends on the quality, reliability, cost, manufacturability, throughput, and security of the products that you deliver. If you seek a fast-paced, dynamic environment; if you thrive on solving difficult problems where resolutions have high impact; and if you love the challenge of building something from scratch, then this role will be an ideal next career step. We are looking for talented manufacturing specialists to help establish new manufacturing and test processes and support full-scale production for the Gateway Antenna.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Execute new product introduction builds across all work centers

Ensure the successful transition of products from development to volume production

Identify continuous improvement opportunities for yield, performance, and cost

Define maintenance schedules and support activities

Implement solutions on the line to improve ease of manufacture, quality, and speed.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

High school diploma or equivalency certificate and 2+ years of professional experience in a hands-on manufacturing environment; OR bachelor's degree in an engineering, math or science discipline

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

Associate or bachelor's degree in an engineering, math, or science discipline

Experience producing J-STD-001 Class 2, IPC-A-610 Class 2 or equivalent hardware

Experience with electrical tests, in circuit and/or bed of nails testing, and full assembly testing.

Ability to deliver high-quality hardware in a fast-paced NPI environment
