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…
As an OS/Platform Software Engineer on SpaceX's Starlink program, you maintain and develop low-level platform software for Linux-based satellites and ground systems, from bootloaders to device drivers and secure boot. Core technologies include Linux, Buildroot, u-boot, C/C++, Python/Rust, ARM embedded systems, and spacecraft networking.
Designs, implements, and maintains high-availability networks for SpaceX launch and production operations, including mission data centers and site networks. Works with Cisco/Arista/Juniper switches, fiber optics, SD-WAN, and automation tools while providing on-call support during launch campaigns.
The OT Systems Engineer supports SpaceX's mission IT team by designing, deploying, and maintaining operational technology and industrial control systems for launch, manufacturing, and commodities generation. The role blends OT expertise with IT skills like virtualization, VDI, GitOps, and edge compute to build secure, high-availability ICS environments across multiple sites.
Principal Network Engineer for Starlink Ground Network at SpaceX, responsible for managing and expanding global network interconnections, POPs, and optimizing performance/reliability of the satellite broadband system. Requires deep expertise in enterprise/cloud-scale networking, Layer-1 transport, routing protocols (BGP/OSPF/IS-IS), Linux, automation (Python/bash), and network monitoring; involves
Designs and automates RF test infrastructure and capabilities for SpaceX's Starshield satellite communications systems, using Python, C++, and lab equipment such as VNAs and spectrum analyzers while collaborating with hardware and DSP teams.
Lead the Wi-Fi software roadmap for Starlink consumer products at SpaceX, debugging kernel-level performance, improving mesh networking, and building CI/deployment tools while mentoring engineers. Core stack includes C/C++, embedded networking, IEEE 802.11, Linux networking internals, and Go/Python.
Site Reliability Engineer building and scaling mission-critical platforms for SpaceX vehicle software delivery, testing, and operations across Falcon 9, Starship, Dragon, and Starlink. Uses Python, Linux, containers, IaC, and observability tools to deploy, operate, and optimize infrastructure as code.
Designs full-chip physical layout for custom RF and analog ICs at SpaceX, partnering with circuit designers on floor planning, power/ground distribution, DRC/ERC/LVS checks, and tape-out to foundries. Core technologies: advanced-node RF/analog layout (to 5nm), EDA tools, Linux, and Perl/Python/shell scripting.
Designs physical layouts for custom RF and analog integrated circuits for SpaceX's Starlink silicon projects, handling floor planning, DRC/LVS checks, tape-out, and collaboration with cross-disciplinary IC design teams using EDA tools and Linux.
