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.
SOFTWARE ENGINEER, QUALITY (STARSHIP)
Our software team is part of the Starship Quality organization, which seeks to guide and implement the Starship program’s quality standards as it matures from a research & development program to a world-class human space flight program.
Our small, focused software team is responsible for aligning emerging and legacy ERP software and systems to enforce safety and reliability standards in the Starship program. The scope includes but is not limited to, developing software and data reporting solutions that drive the implementation of improved quality processes throughout the build and launch of Starship vehicles. We work closely with Starship Build and Flight Reliability Engineers to create new systems and update old systems to meet our quality standards.
Aerospace experience is not required to be successful here - instead, we look for smart, motivated, respectful, collaborative software engineers who love solving problems and want to make an impact on a super-inspiring mission. You will have full ownership of challenging problems, working with a team of enthusiastic engineers with diverse perspectives to design and produce solutions that enable SpaceX to move towards our goals at a rapid pace. The success of the missions at SpaceX depends on the software that you and your team produce. We are looking for engineers who treat fellow teammates with fairness, respect, and support.
