Electric Propulsion Engineer, Mechanical (Starshield)

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.

ELECTRIC PROPULSION ENGINEER, MECHANICAL (STARSHIELD)

Starshield leverages SpaceX's Starlink technology and launch capability to support national security efforts. While Starlink is designed for consumer and commercial use, Starshield is designed for government use, with an initial focus on earth observation, communications, and hosted payloads.

SpaceX is hiring an Electric Propulsion Engineer to join a collaborative engineering team working on design, analysis, build, and test of flight-qualified satellite electric propulsion systems for in-space constellations. In this role you will contribute end-to-end hardware ownership—from design through production support and qualification—for propulsion systems that must meet demanding flight reliability requirements through iterative design, test, and refinement.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Design, analyze, test, and provide operational support for high-volume production spacecraft electric propulsion hardware <span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":true,"134233118":true,"20134198
