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.

AUTOMATION & CONTROLS SPECIALIST, SILICON PROCESS MANUFACTURING (STARLINK)

Starlink is committed to providing fast, reliable internet to those that need it most. We design, build, and launch the world's largest and most advanced satellite constellation, that is capable of delivering high-speed internet to even the most remote locations. We also design, build, and ship the hardware that sits in the homes of our customers all around the world. And while our hardware and network are incredibly advanced, we keep the end-user experience impressively simple; our customers have internet within 10 minutes of unboxing.

In true SpaceX fashion, Starlink is taking the next step in vertical integration by bringing semiconductor integrated circuit packaging and assembly in-house for development and manufacturing. We are looking for hands-on and dynamic specialists to support our engineering team with expertise in semiconductor packaging execution, process support, equipment operation, and testing. You will assist in executing packaging processes and tasks, helping to take them from concept to mass production as we strive to make Starlink more affordable to those who need it most.
