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.
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…
A PCB Designer on SpaceX’s Avionics Hardware Development team creates printed circuit board layouts from schematics for Falcon and Dragon spacecraft, collaborating with electrical and mechanical engineers on placement, routing, DFM, and documentation using tools like Altium or KiCad.
A PCB Designer at SpaceX creates multilayer PCB layouts (2-20+ layers) for Starlink in-house board designs, including radio phased arrays and solar power converters. They partner with hardware engineers on placement, routing, signal/power integrity, and fabrication documentation using ECAD tools.
Designs and lays out printed circuit boards for SpaceX's Starlink satellites and user terminals, partnering with hardware engineers on component placement, routing (digital, analog, RF, power), library creation, and fabrication documentation using ECAD tools such as Mentor Xpedition and Altium Designer.
Designs and lays out multilayer PCBs (2–20+ layers) for SpaceX's Starlink hardware, partnering with hardware engineers on component placement, high-speed/RF/power routing, design reviews, and fabrication documentation using tools such as Xpedition, Allegro, Altium, or KiCad.
Designs printed circuit board layouts for SpaceX’s Starshield hardware, collaborating with hardware engineers on component placement, routing, and documentation for radio, power, and satellite systems using tools like Mentor Xpedition and Altium.
PCB Designer on SpaceX's Starship team who creates multilayer PCB layouts, places components, routes high-speed digital/analog/RF and power circuits, runs SI/PI simulations, and produces fabrication deliverables while collaborating with hardware engineers using Altium and Xpedition.
Designs and implements next-generation ASICs for Starlink's space and ground infrastructure, performing physical implementation (synthesis, floorplanning, place and route, timing closure, signoff) and building automation scripts while collaborating with cross-disciplinary teams. Core technologies: RTL2GDSII physical design, EDA tools, STA, CMOS/FinFET, and Python/TCL/Perl scripting.
