Quality Engineer, Silicon Technology (Starlink) at SpaceX
Bastrop, TX
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.
QUALITY ENGINEER, SILICON TECHNOLOGY (STARLINK)
SpaceX is leveraging its 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 4M+ 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. As we continue to upgrade and expand the constellation, we're looking for best-in-class engineers to join the team.
In true SpaceX fashion, Starlink is taking the next step in vertical integration by bringing integrated circuit packaging and assembly in-house for development and manufacturing. We are looking for hands-on and dynamic quality engineers with expertise in semiconductors, packaging assembly processes, and testing. You will assume full ownership of quality packaging assembly materials, processes, and products as we strive to make Starlink more affordable to those who need it most.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Own quality for in-house packaging assembly lines including for incoming goods, within assembly line processes, and outgoing finish products
Lead failure analysis investigations, root cause analysis, corrective actions, and reporting for chip packaging assembly and test failures
Cross-functional interface between external suppliers, engineering, operations, and stakeholders in identifying and establishing quality metrics to meet yield and reliability targets
Drive and implement changes to improve the quality and reliability of assembly processes and test environments
Responsible for isolating excursions and immediately driving containment actions to minimize operational and customer product impact
Identify, create and review specifications for incoming supplies & materials to ensure they meet product requirements
Own quality metrics, ongoing reliability reporting, risk assessment activities, and reliability improvement plans
Implement quality and reliability improvements for next generation SpaceX chip packaging products
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, materials science, physics, or other applied engineering discipline
1+ years of professional experience in quality and/or semiconductor assembly and packaging (internship experience applicable)
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
Advanced technical degree
3+ years industry experience in microelectronics packaging quality and/or reliability
Familiar with failure mode and effects analysis FMEA and 8D reporting
Hands-on packaging, PCBA, failure analysis, reliability and/or testing
COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:
Pay Range:
Quality Engineer/Level I: $100,000.00 - $120,000.00/per year
Quality Engineer/Level II: $115,000.00 - $135,000.00/per year
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, stock options, 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 & long-term disability insurance, life insurance, paid parental leave, and various other discounts and perks. You may also accrue 3 weeks of paid vacation & will be eligible for 10 or more paid holidays per year. Exempt employees are eligible for 5 days of sick leave per year.

Technical Recruiter, Legal and Government Affairs at SpaceX
Washington, DC
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.
TECHNICAL RECRUITER, LEGAL AND GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS (WASHINGTON D.C.)
RESPONSIBILITIES:
As a SpaceX recruiter, you will run a full desk with a variety of duties and responsibilities focused on the sourcing, screening, interviewing, and onboarding of top talent candidates to fill mission critical positions (pun intended). In many cases, you are candidates' first encounter with SpaceX and it is your job to represent the company with professionalism, pride, and enthusiasm. We work in teams and focus on collaboration yet require a high degree of autonomy. So, while you are not expected to simply go it alone, you are expected to show initiative, take responsibility, and run with tasks to completion.
Your day-to-day routine will change often as hiring priorities shift, but there is a basic set of activities you can expect to run with daily, including, but not limited to:
Meet with your client groups to discuss headcount, new requisitions, hiring strategy, and/or interview feedback - you truly act as a partner to your clients and not merely as an order taker
Screen candidates who apply to requisitions - as the SpaceX name brand grows, our job postings continue to fill up with stellar candidates
Source candidates - often the best candidates are the ones not actively looking
Discuss candidates you have screened with your client groups and recommend top candidates for interviews
Give tours to candidates before their onsite
Attend interviews alongside your client groups to act as another set of eyes and ears in evaluating candidates
Once candidates are approved for hire, you will begin the offer process including initiating background checks, negotiating offer packages and extending offer letters
Some days you will have multiple candidates coming onsite for interviews and you will spend that time giving tours and coordinating the candidate experience. Other days, you will need to fill your candidate pipeline and will spend the majority of the day screening/sourcing candidates. No day is the same here and the pace moves fast, but ultimately your job is to effectively attract, organize, and manage the flow of the country's most talented individuals.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
Bachelor's degree and 1+ years of recruiting experience; or associate degree and 2+ years of experience; or 3+ years of professional experience as a recruiter in lieu of a degree

Full life cycle recruiting experience, from sourcing to closing
Comfort with reviewing, evaluating and reporting on recruiting data
Ability to distinguish between the top 50% and the top 5% of talent within their respective fields
Demonstrated expertise in non-standard recruiting methods: cold calling candidates and companies, organizing and executing ad hoc networking events, identifying industry experts and finding unique methods to engage with them, creating unique targeted sourcing campaigns, etc.
Comfortable interfacing directly with hiring managers including director and VP level technical leaders
Ability to build strong relationships with both hiring managers and candidates
Ability to accurately present but not oversell candidates to client groups; influence decisions by acting as the subject matter expert on talent but avoid dictating client decisions
Ability to multi-task and operate with little direction while still being an active team member
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
Available to work extended hours and weekends as needed
This position is based in Washington D.C., and requires being onsite full-time - hybrid and remote work will not be considered
