Job Description

Product Compliance Engineer (Starlink) at SpaceX

Hawthorne, CA, United States

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.

PRODUCT COMPLIANCE ENGINEER (STARLINK)

Starlink believes in providing fast, reliable internet to serve populations with little or no connectivity. We design, build, and launch the world's largest constellation of satellites, enabling us to operate a global internet network unbounded by traditional ground infrastructure limitations. Starlink is now delivering initial beta service and accepting pre-orders both domestically and internationally, and will continue expansion to near global coverage of the populated world in 2022.

Product Compliance Engineers will play a critical role as SpaceX strives to deliver internet to those that need it most. They will drive regulatory efforts, impact internal design decisions, and obtain the product certification needed in order to sell and ship millions of consumer-facing devices. These devices - including Starlink dishes, Wi-Fi routers, power supply, and accessories, etc. - are designed and manufactured completely in-house by SpaceX. Engineers on the team will be hands-on, regularly interact with multiple technical disciplines, and ultimately ensure that Starlink is a global success.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Guide electro-mechanical product development towards meeting all regulatory requirements

• Coordinate across electrical, mechanical, and antenna disciplines to solve design challenges

• Develop qualification and certification test plans and oversee their execution (including third-party product requirements testing)

• Obtain applicable production certifications for Starlink products so we can deliver service to millions of users worldwide

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

• Bachelor's degree in an engineering, math, or physics discipline

• 1+ years of experience in mechanical or electrical product design (internship or extracurricular experience is applicable)

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

• 1+ years of experience in Product Compliance, Safety, EMC, RF Engineering, or Environmental Compliance

• 1+ years of experience managing product technical requirements, scope, schedule, or cost

• Demonstrated ability to work in a highly cross-functional role

• Outstanding project management skills

• Excellent communication skills both written and verbal

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

• Must be available to work longer hours as needed

ITAR REQUIREMENTS:

• To conform to U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) you must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
