About this role

Mechanical Engineer, Tower/Launch and Test Starbase, TX 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. MECHANICAL ENGINEER, TOWER/LAUNCH AND TEST SpaceX is committed to developing revolutionary space technology, with the ultimate goal of enabling people to live on other planets. As a mechanical and/or fluids engineer on the starship launch pad and test site, you will support the development of SpaceX's Starship Tower, Launch Mount, and test stands, part of a fully reusable transportation system designed to launch both crew and cargo to Earth orbit, the Moon, Mars, and beyond. Engineers in this role are responsible for hardware development from initial system architecting through the design, analysis, manufacturing, integration, activation, and operational phases. Mechanical engineers design welded structures, large-scale mechanisms, electromechanical & fluid power actuation systems, and fluid systems, including hydraulic and cryogenic. These systems are involved with performing proof and static fire testing of individual Starship stages , stacking the vehicle on the launch pad, loading propellant before launch, releasing fluid and structural connections at T-0, catching both stages when they return to the launch site, and configuring the vehicles to a safe state post-catch so they can be rapidly reflown. The Starship program is focused on rapid iteration and improvement, which enables engineers to continuously innovate and advance technology
