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.
INJECTION MOLDING TECHNICIAN (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 millions of users worldwide.

As a Process Technician, you will be responsible for maintaining daily production uptime of fully automated injection molding machines, including all subsequent post-mold operations. This position also involves the proper documentation of process settings through setup sheets and maintenance of process books and their contents. Other tasks relevant to the process technician include overseeing analyses, participating in work instruction development projects, and training others as necessary. Work area will be on the manufacturing floor running plastic injection molding machines, fixing the machines, setting up/calibrating the machines, operating the machines, and documenting as required. This is a hands-on production job that includes meeting goals for production, quality, inventory of both parts and raw material, and personnel aspects.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Install, commission, and validate intelligent equipment to support injection molding applications

  • Update special equipment service manuals including BOMs, drawings, and wiring schematics
  • Recommended needed processes, technical expertise, and tooling for optimization of production runs
  • Work closely with product design engineering teams to define requirements
  • Diagnose equipment failures, collect data to identify root causes, and develop sustainable solutions

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Experience in independently troubleshooting advanced electrical circuits, electronic systems, motors & starters, electrically operated equipment, and making successful repairs and modifications
  • Proficient in Microsoft Excel, Office, and Word
  • Able to interpret geometrical tolerances on part drawings
  • Electrical wiring experience and some knowledge of how PLCs, sensors, and other electrical components are wired and work

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
