Job description

from SpaceX careers

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.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Maintain and repair all assets to ensure their proper operating condition
  • Troubleshoot, repair control devices such as PLCs, HMIs, CNC controls
  • Troubleshoot, repair and overhaul of mechanical systems like, pumps, chillers, gearboxes, etc
  • Perform work order repairs, inspections and adjustments
