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.
SR. PROCESS ENGINEER, INDUSTRIAL WATER TREATMENT (STARLINK)
SpaceX is developing a low-latency, broadband internet system to meet the needs of consumers across the globe. Enabled by a constellation of low Earth orbit satellites, Starlink will provide fast, reliable internet to populations with little or no connectivity, including those in rural communities and places where existing services are too expensive or unreliable. We are looking for talented, creative, and driven engineers to drive tools and processes, from initial concept development to full-scale production. You will drive the relationship between engineering, development, and production teams and will interact regularly with senior leadership during critical design phases. The success of Starlink depends on the quality, reliability, cost, manufacturability, throughput, security, and user experience of the products that you deliver.
As a Sr. Process Engineer on the Starlink manufacturing program, you will take ownership for activating, qualifying, optimizing, and ensuring the consistency of operations for an ultrapure process water plant supporting our printed circuit board, silicon packaging, and solar cell manufacturing lines. This position is responsible for the development, implementation, and operationalization of equipment, facilities, tooling, and manufacturing process technologies necessary for high-volume production. Your work will form the backbone for millions of next-generation devices used all over the world. For homes, schools, businesses, vehicles, planes, or boats, this team plays an instrumental role in ensuring high-speed connectivity is available to all who need it.

  • Identify and champion continuous improvement projects
  • Develop project plans, budgets, and cost/benefit analysis for implementation of new processes or machines
  • Monitor and communicate area status and risks

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
  • Bachelor's degree in an engineering, math, or science discipline
  • 5+ years of experience in a manufacturing environment or with fluids/mechanical/electromechanical design and analysis (internship or project team experience is applicable)

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
  • 7+ years hands-on project experience in wastewater treatment
  • Experience with process parameters and engineering units for temperature, pressure, flow, and power
  • Ability to read and understand process PFDs, P&IDs, 2D and 3D CAD drawings, construction drawings, and BOMs
  • Experience with mechanical equipment and systems requiring the isolation of the malfunction, disassembly of industrial machinery, and repair/replacement of bearings, gears, structural components
  • Experience with lock out tag out, job hazard analysis, and hot work permitting
  • Experience applying lean manufacturing principles
  • Experience taking products from research and development into production

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
  • Able to work all shifts and available for weekends as needed
