Original 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 enabling human life on Mars.

MANAGER, SUPPLIER DEVELOPMENT ENGINEERING (STARSHIP)

This Manager will own the supplier development engineering function for the Starship program - building and leading a team of engineers responsible for proactively eliminating reliability risks, engineering a scalable supply chain, developing a technically excellent vendor base, and standing up reliable processes upstream to prevent downstream burden.

This is a senior technical leadership role that requires proactive involvement and influence in aligning design, manufacturing, and supply chain requirements to ensure part conformance and process stability at Starship flight rate. We are looking for a candidate who can set and execute a multi-year supply chain reliability vision, grow and develop managers and individual contributors, identify and resolve systemic risk, and manage senior stakeholders across the Starship program. This role has a unique opportunity to drive program-wide initiatives alongside other Starship leaders, develop creative solutions to drive down cost across the supply base, and lead a high-performing organization to success.

The candidate will develop and lead complex, multi-disciplinary organizations and projects and will be required to dive into ambiguous challenges with a bias towards action. This role requires someone who can create and execute a strategic organizational vision enabling Starship supply chain operations to scale with a high degree of excellence. The candidate will define high-level goals with alignment from cross-functional leadership, cascade those goals through managers and teams, and drive the organization to rapid execution.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Work cross-functionally with other supply chain verticals, engineering leadership, and production management to proactively identify improvement opportunities, implement agile processes, and drive strategic risk mitigation that improves Starship vehicle and engine reliability
Partner autonomously with engineering and supply chain leadership to drive alignment on design requirements, technical improvements, and simplification of reliable supply chain processes
Define strategic and tactical goals for the supplier development engineering organization and lead initiatives around those goals to ensure production and engineering stakeholder expectations are met
Lead supply chain engineering teams to ensure alignment across cost, quality, and delivery goals, with a bias towards continuous improvement as the Starship program plan changes
Develop standards and expectations to ensure at-rate delivery from suppliers, with strong alignment to leaders in the supply base
Ensure end-to-end delivery execution from when the part leaves the supplier’s facility to when it arrives at its specified production area
Facilitate change management on behalf of supply chain, and ensure on-time introduction of conforming parts at rate to support design and production changes
Identify opportunities for insourcing or outsourcing part manufacturing in order to support rate (drive make vs. buy)
Represent supplier development engineering in Starship program forums; ensure supply chain has a seat at the table and alignment with Starship program priorities by establishing trust with senior stakeholders
Drive and motivate managers and teams to ensure all deliverables and expectations are met and executed, with quick decision-making
Develop reporting procedures and systems to inform and align on reliability progress, help needed, and opportunities for improvement
Identify and implement process, system, or training improvement projects with tangible results, and effectively delegate execution across the organization
Track and review established KPIs with managers and teams, and adjust initiatives as needed to drive progress
Develop and champion cross-functional technical cost-reduction efforts and projects in collaboration with sourcing leadership
Work autonomously and proactively to resolve a wide variety of potentially ambiguous issues in creative, resourceful ways
Ensure the organization has both a high-level and granular understanding of quality risk across the Starship program, and drive collaboration to broadly reduce quality risk
Own the supplier development engineering roadmap for Starship flight hardware, including structures, propulsion, avionics, fluids, and related commodities as assigned
Build, lead, and scale a world-class supplier development engineering organization, including people managers and individual contributors
Conduct weekly 1:1s with direct reports (including managers) and collaborate on personal development plans for each member
Coach managers on hiring, performance management, and developing their teams; hold the leadership bench accountable to results and culture
Interview and hire candidates for Supply Chain with a strong eye for talent
Develop a succession plan with leads and managers and effectively manage attrition to ensure business continuity, while growing and developing individual contributors into future leaders
Embody and radiate best practices in team collaboration, respect, transparency, and team problem solving with a high sense of integrity
