Employer job description
From SpaceX's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
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.
MACHINE MAINTENANCE ENGINEER, TOOL AND DIE
One of the most ambitious missions that SpaceX has undertaken to date, the Starlink satellite constellation, is our solution to providing reliable internet to the entire world. We are looking for a Machine Maintenance Engineer for the Bastrop Tool and Die shop. This department produces dies (also known as tools or molds) used in injection molding, high pressure die casting, and stamping. Those dies are the building blocks that enable in-house high-volume production for user terminal components.
The Maintenance Engineer is the primary technical resource for maintenance technicians on planned and unplanned repairs, modifications, and upgrades of Tool and Die machine tools and shop equipment. This role takes end-to-end ownership of equipment improvement projects from concept through design and implementation. The job is to maximize CNC, EDM, grinder, crane, and related equipment availability so die build rate is not set by a down machine.
The success of Starlink depends on the quality, reliability, cost, manufacturability, and throughput of the products that you deliver. This role will be an ideal next career step if you seek a fast-paced/dynamic environment, thrive on solving difficult problems where resolutions have high impact, and love the challenge of building something from scratch.
