Full job description
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.
SR. PROCESS ENGINEER, INDUSTRIAL WATER TREATMENT (STARLINK)
SpaceX is developing a low-latency, broadband internet system to meet the needs of consumers across the globe. Enabled by a constellation of low Earth orbit satellites, Starlink will provide fast, reliable internet to populations with little or no connectivity, including those in rural communities and places where existing services are too expensive or unreliable. We are looking for talented, creative, and driven engineers to drive tools and processes, from initial concept development to full-scale production. You will drive the relationship between engineering, development, and production teams and will interact regularly with senior leadership during critical design phases. The success of Starlink depends on the quality, reliability, cost, manufacturability, throughput, security, and user experience of the products that you deliver.
As a Sr. Process Engineer on the Starlink manufacturing program, you will take ownership for activating, qualifying, optimizing, and ensuring the consistency of operations for an ultrapure process water plant supporting our printed circuit board, silicon packaging, and solar cell manufacturing lines. This position is responsible for the development, implementation, and operationalization of equipment, facilities, tooling, and manufacturing process technologies necessary for high-volume production. Your work will form the backbone for millions of next-generation devices used all over the world. For homes, schools, businesses, vehicles, planes, or boats, this team plays an instrumental role in ensuring high-speed connectivity is available to all who need it.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Demonstrate extreme ownership in the construction, activation, and operation of a new commercial ultrapure process water treatment facility
Design, implement, and productionize mechanical and fluid systems that meet SpaceX and regulatory requirements
Interpret lab analysis, data streams, and operator feedback to effectively maintain safe and effective plant operations
Develop, implement, maintain, and improve operational procedures, methods, and process equipment
Form strong partnerships with internal and external counterparts, including but not limited to manufacturing operations and engineering, environment health and safety (EHS), facilities construction and maintenance teams, representatives of regulatory bodies, OEM equipment manufactures, and supplier representatives
Identify and champion continuous improvement projects
Develop project plans, budgets, and cost/benefit analysis for implementation of new processes or machines
Monitor and communicate area status and risks
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
Bachelor's degree in an engineering, math, or science discipline
5+ years of experience in a manufacturing environment or with fluids/mechanical/electromechanical design and analysis (internship or project team experience is applicable)
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
7+ years hands-on project experience in wastewater treatment
Experience with process parameters and engineering units for temperature, pressure, flow, and power
Ability to read and understand process PFDs, P&IDs, 2D and 3D CAD drawings, construction drawings, and BOMs
Experience with mechanical equipment and systems requiring the isolation of the malfunction, disassembly of industrial machinery, and repair/replacement of bearings, gears, structural components
Experience with lock out tag out, job hazard analysis, and hot work permitting
Experience applying lean manufacturing principles
Experience taking products from research and development into production
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
Able to work all shifts and available for weekends as needed
Standing for long periods of time, climbing up and down ladders, bending, grasping, sitting, pulling, pushing, stooping, and stretching may be required to perform the functions of this position
Able to lift up to 25lbs. unassisted
Able to work outside with hand tools
Able to stand, climb, walk and work with object overhead

SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches the world’s most advanced rockets and spacecraft. The company was founded in 2002 by Elon Musk to revolutionize space transportation, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary.
SpaceX has gained worldwide attention for a series of historic milestones. It is the only private company ever to return a spacecraft from low-Earth orbit, which it first accomplished in December 2010. The company made history again in May 2012 when its Dragon spacecraft attached to the International Space Station, exchanged cargo payloads, and returned safely to Earth — a technically challenging feat previously accomplished only by governments. Since then Dragon has delivered cargo to and from the space station multiple times, providing regular cargo resupply missions for NASA.
