Lead a team to design, build, test, and integrate satellites for SpaceX’s Starshield program, ensuring high-quality, rapid production of aerospace hardware.
Senior Electrical Engineer at SpaceX responsible for hardware reliability of Starlink’s satellite and ground systems, debugging PCBA failures, and improving manufacturing quality using advanced diagnostic tools.
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…
Designs and routes complex PCBs for Starlink hardware, partnering with engineers to optimize layouts for RF, power, and digital circuits using tools like Mentor Xpedition or Altium.
Build and maintain the real-time, distributed software stack for SpaceX’s Starmind satellites, which combine solar-powered AI compute with autonomous satellite operations.
Design and improve Starlink’s satellite and ground hardware, analyze failures, and implement processes to boost production quality and on-orbit reliability.
Performs structural analysis on Raptor Combustion Devices for SpaceX’s rocket engines, using FEA and physics to ensure reliability under extreme conditions like pressure, heat, and vibration. Works with cross-functional teams to validate designs, improve manufacturing, and support testing for Starship’s propulsion systems.
A Design Reliability Engineer at SpaceX ensures the reliability of reusable launch vehicles (Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy) and spacecraft (Crew & Cargo Dragon) by reviewing designs, approving hardware, developing new design criteria, and integrating with engineering teams to meet mission requirements.
Designs and layouts printed circuit boards for Starshield’s national-security hardware, collaborating with engineers on RF, power, and high-speed digital designs using tools like Mentor Xpedition or Altium.
Test and analyze hardware failures for Starlink satellites and ground stations, using tools like oscilloscopes and Python to improve reliability and manufacturing processes.
Develop and deploy automated test programs for semiconductor packaging and wafer-level testing to ensure reliability of Starlink’s in-house ICs and reduce costs.
Design and run mechanical tests for Starlink satellite hardware, building test stands and analyzing structures, mechanisms, and high-pressure systems to validate next-gen components.
The Design Criteria Engineer ensures Falcon & Dragon vehicles meet design requirements via peer reviews, criteria development, and cross-disciplinary work, using FEA tools (NASTRAN/ABAQUS/ANSYS) and scripting (Python/Matlab).
Design and layout advanced PCBs for SpaceX’s Starship avionics, partnering with hardware engineers to optimize high-speed, RF, and power electronics for spaceflight.
Designs complex multi-layer PCBs (20+ layers) for SpaceX’s Starship program, collaborating with hardware engineers to create high-performance electronics for space missions, including radio phased arrays and power converters. Focuses on signal integrity, manufacturability, and automation.
