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.
NEW GRADUATE ENGINEER, MECHANICAL - '26/'27 (STARLINK)
Starlink believes in providing fast, reliable internet to serve populations with little or no connectivity. We design, build, launch, and operate the world's largest constellation of satellites, enabling us to operate a global internet network unbounded by traditional ground infrastructure limitations. Starlink also designs, builds, and delivers high-volume consumer hardware that allows users to connect to these satellites within minutes of unboxing, as well as our advanced gateways that we deploy regionally throughout the world.
What you'd do
- Own Starlink hardware from conceptual design through high-volume production
- Develop design criteria, collaborate on requirements, and drive system-level optimization
- Design and develop the production lines that manufacture your product, including robot end effector design, process development, control system design, automation programming, and more
- Refine the production system to create high-rate, high-yield, and reliable processes
- Identify trends and opportunities for optimizing product output, quality enhancements, and cost of manufacturability
- Troubleshoot mechanical system problems, formulate maintenance protocols, service schedules, and coordinate material procurement for machinery upkeep
- Challenge assumptions and work to find simple solutions to complex problems
What they want
- Bachelor's degree in an engineering discipline
- 1+ years of experience with mechanical/electromechanical design, analysis, testing, and/or manufacturing (internship or extracurricular experience is applicable)
- Graduating in the class of 2026 or 2027
