Lead a team of software engineers to design and maintain reliable, scalable systems that improve manufacturing quality, traceability, and reusability for SpaceX’s rocket and spacecraft programs.
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.
LEAD SOFTWARE ENGINEER (FULL STACK) - BUILD RELIABILITY
We are seeking a Lead Software Engineer to design, develop, and continuously improve software solutions ensuring our vehicles can be built and flown reliably. This involves streamlining manufacturing quality control processes, simplifying new product introduction, ensuring product traceability, as well as optimizing rocket and spacecraft reusability across the Falcon, Dragon, and Starship programs.
As a Lead Software Engineer on our Build Reliability team, you will be responsible for driving architectural direction and roadmap execution, as well as supporting the technical and personal development of the other Software Engineers on the team. Functionally, you will engage with other SpaceX engineers to discover their needs and write highly reliable software which turns them into reality. You will be responsible for the complete life-cycle of the software you create, including development, testing, and support. You are the engineer that other engineers can count on; you are technical, you attack every problem with enthusiasm; you remove hurdles.
Aerospace experience is not required to be successful here - rather we look for smart, motivated, collaborative engineers who love solving problems and want to make an impact on a super inspiring mission.
