Electrical Engineer, Hardware Reliability (Starlink)

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.

ELECTRICAL ENGINEER, HARDWARE RELIABILITY (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. We design, build, test, and operate all parts of the system – thousands of satellites, consumer receivers that allow users to connect within minutes of unboxing, and the software that brings it all together. We’ve only begun to scratch the surface of Starlink’s potential global impact and are looking for best-in-class engineers to help maximize Starlink’s utility for communities and businesses around the globe.

As an electrical engineer on the Starlink hardware reliability team, you'll sit at the intersection of electrical, firmware, RF, and manufacturing engineering. You will be responsible for hardware failure analysis, root cause, and driving for design and process changes to improve hardware reliability across our various devices. Your focus will be on product launches and field returns. The team works on a wide range of technical disciplines including high-speed digital communication, RF systems, power electronics, PCBA manufacturing, cabling, connectors, and test boards for electrical piece part failure analysis.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Own qualification and test of new electrical designs and SMT manufacturing lines for high volume production

• Perform hands-on debugging to drive to root cause and corrective action of failed phased-ar
