Manufacturing Specialist (Starlink)

SpaceX • Bastrop, TX • 3h 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.

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 12M+ 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 user terminal (a high-volume manufactured product that consumers will have in their homes).

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Execute new product introduction builds across all work centers

Program, load, and operate automated equipment

Triage non-conforming products and drive resolution and preventative actions

Resolve production issues while ensuring design integrity, product quality, and delivery timelines

Perform process development and validation on new models in extremely aggressive timelines

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

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 programming, loading, and operating the following automated equipment: paste printer, solder paste inspection (SPI), pick and place, reflow oven, automated optical inspection (AOI), X-ray inspection, adhesive/coating dispenser, BGA rework

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

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

Ability to adapt and process change quickly

Excellent computer skills (email, Microsoft Windows, ERP/MRP/MES systems, iOS, executing custom-developed software)

Excellent communication (written and verbal) and teamwork skills

Ability to provide process and design improvement suggestions to engineering

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

Must be available one or more of the following shifts:

D shift, 5 pm - 5 am Thursday-Saturday, every other Wednesday
