Mechanical Engineer, Satellite Harnessing (Starlink)
Redmond, WA
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 ofenabling human life on Mars.
At SpaceX we're leveraging our experience in building rockets and spacecraft to deploy Starlink, the world's most advanced broadband internet system.
Starlink is the world's largest satellite constellation and is providing quick, reliable internet to millions of users worldwide.
We design, build, test, and operate all parts of the system – thousands of satellites, consumer receivers that allow users to connect within minutes of unboxing, and the software that brings it all together.
We've only begun to scratch the surface of Starlink's potential global impact are looking for best-in-class engineers to help maximize Starlink's utility for communities and businesses around the globe.
As an Avionics Design Engineer on the Starlink team, you will own harness design from concept and component selection, through to production, qualification, and system integration.




This exciting multidisciplinary role will give you unparalleled exposure to the overall high-level product/vehicle you work on.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Develop the electro-mechanical design of wire harnesses within our family of Starlink vehicles
Develop harness design solutions within a 3D NX CAD environment, and manage technical trade studies to meet stakeholder objectives as well as adhere to internal design standards and requirements
Generate electrical schematics to support both flight and qualification designs
Own vehicle-level harnessing mechanical assemblies and drive to closure all systems integration trades related to those assemblies
Perform analysis and physical testing (both mechanical and electrical) of harnessing with respect to thermal, loads, vibration and shock to ensure full qualification for flight
Document and communicate the design, analysis and testing results thoroughly and clearly via design reviews
Create and release on schedule, appropriate harnessing manufacturing documentation and drawings
Interface with harness production and integration teams to ensure final harness designs can be produced and installed on schedule in accordance with overall project goals
