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 making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars.
SpaceXSI is building Super Intelligence to help humanity understand the universe. Our teams are building the full Super Intelligence stack: from our Colossus supercomputers, to Grok models, to our suite of applications, including Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X. We're creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next.

ABOUT THE ROLE:
  • You will work on the most critical product or technical challenge at any given time.
  • You will get clarity on your first project before an offer.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
  • You believe truth-seeking AI is the most important and challenging problem.
  • You take pride in your work and thrive in meritocratic environments.
  • You are an exceptional software engineer.

$180,000 - $440,000 USD
