Electromechanical Technician (Starshield) - 2nd Shift

Lead hands-on production of Starshield electromechanical assemblies for orbit-ready hardware

Location: Hawthorne, California

Compensation: $22 - 35 USD / hour

About The Role

ELECTROMECHANICAL TECHNICIAN (STARSHIELD) - 2ND SHIFT

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.

Starshield leverages SpaceX's Starlink technology and launch capability to support national security efforts. While Starlink is designed for consumer and commercial use, Starshield is designed for government use, with an initial focus on three areas: Earth observation, communications, and hosted payloads. Designed to meet diverse mission requirements, Starshield satellites are capable of integrating a wide variety of payloads, offering unique versatility to users. With the proven ability to iterate rapidly, SpaceX's unique full-stack approach in developing end-to-end systems, from launch vehicles to user terminals, enables the deployment of capabilities at scale with unprecedented speed. Starshield's proliferated low-Earth orbit architecture provides inherent resiliency and constant connectivity to on-orbit assets, while SpaceX's proven rapid launch capability provides expedient and economical access to space.

As an Electromechanical Technician on the Starshield team, you will build high-reliability electromechanical assemblies that go on orbit.
