Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
You will own signal and power integrity throughout the hardware lifecycle, from silicon architecture and PCB design to troubleshooting and qualification. You will also define best practices, simulation workflows, and test methodologies for the Starlink satellite payload team.
Candidates must have a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or physics with at least 5 years of industry experience. Proficiency in 3D EM simulation tools and high-speed digital design is required, along with U.S. person status for ITAR compliance.
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.
SpaceX is leveraging its experience in building rockets and spacecraft to deploy Starlink, the world’s most advanced broadband internet system. Starlink is the world’s largest satellite constellation and is providing fast, reliable internet to millions of users worldwide. We design, build, test, and operate all parts of the system – thousands of satellites, consumer receivers that allow users to connect within minutes of unboxing, and the software that brings it all together. We’ve only begun to scratch the surface of Starlink’s potential global impact. As we continue to upgrade and expand the constellation, we’re looking for best-in-class engineers to join the team.
As a Signal and Power Integrity Engineer on Starlink’s Payload Engineering team, you’ll have SI and PI ownership throughout the entire life-cycle of the portfolio of hardware that enables this connectivity, and sits at the intersection of electrical, mechanical, thermal analysis, software, and antenna/RF engineering. Early in any given product’s design cycle, your work will include everything from IP evaluation in the silicon architecture stage, package performance evaluation, stackup material selection and characterization, channel and PDN architecture, and PCB layout oversight. Once hardware is in hand, you will drive troubleshooting, characterization, qualification, and general debug across all phases of the product’s life.
As a subject matter expert on SI and PI, you will define the design, analysis, and verification processes and tools that the Starlink team uses when developing hardware. You will have wide latitude to determine how best to tackle these problems and be expected to spread the associated knowledge and techniques to engineers across the Starlink program.

Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience.
Base salary is just one part of your total rewards package at SpaceX. You may also be eligible for long-term incentives, in the form of company stock or long-term cash awards, as well as potential discretionary bonuses and the ability to purchase additional stock at a discount through an Employee Stock Purchase Plan. You will also receive access to comprehensive medical, vision, and dental coverage, access to a 401(k) retirement plan, short and long-term disability insurance, life insurance, paid parental leave, and various other discounts and perks. You may also accrue 3 weeks of paid vacation and will be eligible for 10 or more paid holidays per year. Employees accrue paid sick leave pursuant to Company policy which satisfies or exceeds the accrual, carryover, and use requirements of the law.
SpaceX is an Equal Opportunity Employer; employment with SpaceX is governed on the basis of merit, competence and qualifications and will not be influenced in any manner by race, color, religion, gender, national origin/ethnicity, veteran status, disability status, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, mental or physical disability or any other legally protected status.

SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches the world’s most advanced rockets and spacecraft
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. For more information, visit www.spacex.com.
