Join a pioneering company that is shaping the future of space exploration as a Supplier Quality Engineer. In this dynamic role, you'll ensure suppliers meet stringent technical and production requirements while driving improvements across the supply chain. Your expertise will be crucial in conducting audits, analyzing quality data, and collaborating with diverse teams to enhance processes. With a focus on avionics, you'll play a vital part in supporting SpaceX's mission to enable human life on Mars. If you're ready to tackle challenges in a fast-paced environment and contribute to groundbreaking projects, this opportunity is for you.
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.
The supply chain team is responsible for the sourcing, planning, procurement, warehousing, and transportation of all raw materials and components needed to build our revolutionary spacecraft and launch vehicles. Our mission is to get the right part in the right place at the right time, every time.
The supply chain reliability, surveillance team is chartered with global quality surveillance of the supply base, reducing supply chain risk through assessing and monitoring suppliers, and proactively driving needed supplier improvements.
As a supplier quality engineer, you would ensure suppliers are assessed to determine if they continue to meet SpaceX technical and production requirements. You would review performance, identify gaps and opportunities around the processes used to manage supplier audits, corrective/preventive actions, and supply chain steering committee reviews. You would be responsible to identify and prioritize opportunities for improvement, and work with team members to lead the resulting projects to completion. As supplier surveillance activities deal with suppliers that support all areas of SpaceX, you would build an extensive network within design engineering, build reliability, production, and supply chain management, and a deep understanding of SpaceX systems and processes. This experience would enable you to become a critical voice in the development of group and company strategy.
