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.

SOFTWARE ENGINEER, FLIGHT SOFTWARE (STARLINK)

As an engineer on the Starlink flight software team, you will design, develop and test software that is used to control SpaceX flight and ground systems. You will be responsible for both components that fly on robotic vehicles in space, and the ground systems that orchestrate the world’s largest satellite constellation. You will engage with other SpaceX software and hardware engineers to discover the needs of the mission and code highly reliable software that turns the mission into a reality. You will be responsible for the complete life cycle of the software you create, from development to testing to operation during a continuous mission. 

Aerospace experience is not required to be successful here – rather, we look for smart, motivated, collaborative engineers who love solving problems and want to make an impact on an ambitious and inspiring mission. 

RESPONSIBILITIES: 

  • Develop highly reliable autonomous software systems, and the full suite of testing needed to ensure their resilience, fault tolerance, and correctness 
  • Design software for both vehicles flying in space, and the ground systems that support them 
  • Build prototypes and analyze system metrics to prove out key design concepts and quantify technical constraints 
  • Own all aspects of software development, including design, testing, release, and flight operations 
  • Provide strong technical leadership, focus on continuous improvement 

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS: 

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, math, or STEM discipline OR 2+ years of experience in software development 
  • Development experience in C/C++, Python, or other similar programming languages 

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE: 

Interested candidates who meet the basic qualifications should consider applying. The following preferred skills and experience are helpful for this role, but candidates with only some of them are able to be successful on our team. Learning on the job is critical success at SpaceX, and a core part of the excitement of working on a flight software team. 

  • Strong software design and development skills 
  • Experience designing fault tolerant, distributed, or real-time systems 
  • Cross-context test design skills, ranging from simple unit tests through to integrated hardware-in-the-loop regression and exploratory tests 
  • Thorough knowledge of computer architecture and networks 
  • Knowledge of physics, math, and electronics 
  • Strong skills in debugging, performance optimization, and performance testing 
  • Familiarity with Linux programming 
  • Ability to work effectively in a dynamic environment with changing needs and requirements 
  • Ability to work independently or in a team, take initiative, and communicate effectively in a solution-oriented manner 

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS: 

  • Willing to work extended hours and weekends when needed 

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:    
    
Pay range:    
Software Engineer/Level I: $122,500.00 - $145,000.00/per year    
Software Engineer/Level II: $140,000.00 - $170,000.00/per year
