Job description

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.
BUILD RELIABILITY ENGINEER (STARSHIP)
As a Build Reliability Engineer, you will be part of a widely interdisciplinary team developing global manufacturing procedures, maximizing quality through efficient production. You will employ "reliability by any means necessary", stretching your expertise in fabrication methods, work instructions, tooling design, inspection procedures, data gathering/visualization, and broad collaboration. You will build new processes from the ground up, and routinely grade/improve execution of existing processes, driving continuous production improvement and ultimately be responsible for build-induced vehicle risk.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Develop manufacturing, integration, assembly, welding, NDE, cleanliness, and checkouts processes from the ground up, then enforce consistency across different work centers
  • Design and implement tooling for work access, mechanical/avionics/propulsion testing, build fixturing, lifting & rigging, and fluids
  • Define and document inspection requirements and procedures
  • Create training for production and inspection processes
  • Author planning, test plans, and training to execute processes and collect data, ensuring efficient and stable quality at increasing production volumes
  • Contain non-conforming hardware in collaboration with quality, production, and design groups to ensure systemic issues are corrected, and risk is managed for the fleet
  • Work closely with design teams to improve DFM and requirement fulfillment
  • Aggressively modify requirements and manufacturing process where design intent and production rate are incompatible
  • Conduct build quality reviews to identify repeat and high impact issues. Drive corrective action within and outside of your work center

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
  • Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, materials engineering, manufacturing engineering, chemical engineering, electrical engineering, or physics
  • 1+ years in manufacturing, quality, and/or design engineering role (student project team or internship experience qualifies)

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
  • Experience with the build, assembly, or integration of structures, avionics, valves, fluid system components, actuators, thermal protection systems, or other aerospace components
  • Mechanical tooling or component design and design for manufacturability
  • Proficiency with 3D CAD Software such as NX, SolidWorks, or CATIA
  • Knowledge of mig, tig, laser, stud, spot, or robot welding techniques, as well as visual, penetrant, x-ray, EMAT, or other NDT processes
  • Involvement in a collegiate or hobby design project (Formula SAE, rocketry, etc)
  • Proficiency with SQL and Power BI or other database/query/data visualization suite
  • You thrive in a hands-on environment and are hungry to step out of the office, onto the shop floor
  • Knowledge of metallic manufacturing techniques, processes, and equipment related to machining, bending, forming, casting, additive manufacturing, fastening, drilling, and/or bonding
  • Strong interpersonal skills and ability to collaborate with partners/customers from a diverse set of engineering disciplines

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
  • Ability to work extended hours, weekends, and offsite as needed

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:
Pay range:
Level I: $100,000.00 - $115,000.00/per year
Level II: $110,000.00 - $135,000.00/per year
Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience.
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 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. You will also receive access to comprehensive medical, vision, and dental coverage, access to a 401(k) retirement plan, short and long-term disability insurance, life insurance, paid parental leave, and various other discounts and perks.
