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.

SR. AEROSPACE SOFTWARE ENGINEER (STARFALL)

As a Sr. Software Engineer on the Starfall Engineering organization, you will design and implement software and firmware for the next generation of avionics systems at SpaceX. You will be responsible for ensuring your system behaves as expected and troubleshoot when necessary. You will have a direct impact on our ability to launch SpaceX systems frequently, safely, and reliably.

Aerospace experience is not required to be successful here - we want our engineers to bring fresh ideas from all areas. We look for engineers who love solving problems and seek to make an impact on an inspiring mission. As we expand this team, we're looking for versatile, motivated, and collaborative engineers. Our team is involved in designing the vehicle systems at every phase of development. Our software engineers are responsible for the life cycle of the software they create, including development, testing, and operational support.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Design and deliver high-quality software and firmware for common processors and micro-controllers
Support launch operations
Collaborate with peers and customers
Bring up and validate devices that communicate-to and fly-in space
Analyze test results and bugs which require in-depth investigations
Hands-on integration and troubleshooting of flight hardware/software systems
Work in a dynamic environment with changing needs, requirements, and challenges

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

Bachelor’s degree in computer science, data science, engineering, math, physics, or scientific discipline; OR 2+ years of professional experience in writing software in lieu of a degree
5+ years of experience in software development with C++ or C languages

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

Development experience with microcontrollers
Strong software engineering fundamentals in C++
Solid fundamental knowledge of computer architecture and networks
Familiarity with NXP microcontrollers
Commitment to high standard of software development, including adherence to software process and best practices
Linux and bash shell scripting
Understanding of verification methodologies
Excellent communication & documentation skills, and ability to collaborate in multidisciplinary environments

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

Must be available to work extended hours and weekends when needed to meet critical deadlines

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:

Pay Range:

$165,000.00 - $230,000.00/per year

Your actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience.

Base salary is just one part of your total rewards package at SpaceX. You may also be eligible for long-term incentives, in the form of company stock or long-term cash awards, as well as potential discretionary bonuses and the ability to purchase additional stock at a discount through an Employee Stock Purchase Plan. You will also receive access to comprehensive medical, vision, and dental coverage, access to a 401(k) retirement plan, short and long-term disability insurance, life insurance, paid parental leave, and various other discounts and perks. You may also accrue 3 weeks of paid vacation and will be eligible for 10 or more paid holidays per year. Employees accrue paid sick leave pursuant to Company policy which satisfies or exceeds the accrual, carryover, and use requirements of the law.
