Summer Post Office Jobs in Bothell, WA (NOW HIRING)

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.
NEW GRADUATE ENGINEER, SILICON ENGINEERING
Are you an engineering student graduating in fall or this upcoming spring/summer that is looking for full-time employment after graduation? We are looking for engineers to help us develop next generation silicon for SpaceX. The team is hiring engineers from pre-silicon through post-silicon across many disciplines in RF/Analog IC, RTL design, design verification, physical design, DFT, validation and more using state-of-the-art tools and methodologies. The ideal candidate will be a hands-on self-starter who can execute the steps required to fully design and verify complex designs.
Full-time employment is available working on our Starlink program in Palo Alto (CA), Irvine (CA), or Redmond (WA).
RESPONSIBILITIES:

• ASIC/FPGA Design & Verification
• Participate in all phases of ASIC/FPGA design and verification flows
• Contribute towards design architecture, RTL implementation and/or verification, and emulation
• Bring-up and validate ASICs and FPGAs in the lab (write embedded software using C/C++ and/or Python)
• Hands-on self-starter who can execute the steps required to fully verify a complex digital design
• RF/Analog IC Design
• Simulate and model RFIC systems at high level and work with system architects, modem/DSP and ASIC engineers to partition functions between hardware and software domains
• Derive specifications for the RFIC subsystems and circuits
• Develop RF/microwave circuits in state-of-the-art SiGe or CMOS processes
• Perform IC floor planning and layout
• Digital Signal Processing
• Develop RTL designs using SystemVerilog, with emphasis on DSP and digital communication system blocks (frontend, physical layer, link layer, error correction, etc.)
• Verify DSP blocks against fixed-point MATLAB model, work in collaboration with systems engineers
• Physical Design
• Perform synthesis and physical implementation steps (synthesis, floor planning, place and route, timing/noise analysis, physical verification, electromigration, voltage drop, logic equivalency and other signoff checks)
• Develop/improve physical design methodologies and automation scripts for various implementation steps
• Participate in silicon tapeouts in advanced technology nodes for future Starlink SOCs

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

• Graduating with a bachelor's degree, master's degree or PhD in 2026 or 2027
• Bachelor's degree in an engineering discipline, mathematics or physics
• Experience working with ASIC, SOC, FPGA, RFIC, or MMIC

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

• Understanding of computer architecture
• Experience in one or more of the following areas:
• Analog or digital CMOS integrated circuit design and/or physical design
• SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL or C/C++
• Scripting languages, e.g. Python for automation
• Object-oriented programming
• Simulation tools such as ADS, Spectre, HFSS or Momentum
• RTL design, chip bring-up, verification, and/or post-silicon validation experience
• Digital signal processing

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

• Ability to work extended hours and weekends as necessary to meet critical project milestones

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:
Pay Range:
Level 1: $125,000.00 - $165,000.00
Level 2: $145,000.00 - $200,000.00
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. You may also accrue 3 weeks of paid vacation and will be eligible for 10 or more paid holidays per year. Employees in Washington State accrue paid sick time in compliance with state and federal law. Company shuttles are offered to employees for roundtrip travel from select Seattle locations to the SpaceX Redmond office Monday to Friday.
