Track manufacturing system key metrics around rate, cost, and quality
Influence facilities development, floor layout, headcount requirements, and material flow definition through multiple phases of product ramp
Identify tooling and hardware requirements, design and implement them into production processes. Rapidly iterate improvements based on shop floor feedback and production defect data analysis
Identify automation opportunities and evaluate return on investment for each
Work with in-house resources and vendors as necessary to develop manufacturing solutions and implement on the production line
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
Bachelor's degree in an engineering discipline
1+ years of experience in a manufacturing environment via professional work experience, project/research-based student experience, or a combination of both
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
Demonstrated experience working in a highly adaptive and iterative environment
Proven excellence in a high-volume commercial or automotive manufacturing environment
Experience transitioning products from design to manufacturing and scaling to high volume as part of a cross-functional team
Experience with machine vision or automated optical inspection
Experience with DOE, gage R&R, and process qualifications
Ability to design tooling for high-volume manufacturing
Demonstrated experience implementing automation into production processes
Experience integrating mechanical and electrical assemblies with both manual and automated processes
Ability to develop and maintain high-performing suppliers and contract manufacturers
Experience with AutoCAD, NX and Teamcenter
Experience working with and defining requirements for ERP, MRP, and MES systems
Experience with fluid or gas handling systems.
Knowledge and experience with testing of pressurized systems.
Experience with instrumentation and data acquisition.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

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.
