About SpaceX

SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches advanced rockets and spacecraft. The company was founded in 2002 to revolutionize space technology, with the ultimate goal of enabling people to live on other planets. Backed by Kleiner Perkins, a16z and Founders Fund.

About the role

The Vehicle Analysis Tooling team builds the applications that production, test, and flight depend on. You will own the full path: platforms that ingest and process high-volume engineering data, such as telemetry, sensor data, or video; the tools and interfaces engineers use to review that analysis and act on it; and the infrastructure those applications run on. These systems rarely sit in one specialty. Depth in data, video, or applied models is enough to start. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, mathematics, physics, or another scientific discipline, or 8+ years of professional software experience in lieu of a degree
  • 5+ years of software development experience
  • 3+ years of experience building and operating production applications or data systems, including full-stack development
  • 3+ yearsexperience building production Python systems, including data processing, services, or user-facing application code
  • 1+ leading technical work, including design reviews, project direction, and the quality of the code the team ships
More about this role

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.

These systems rarely sit in one specialty. Depth in data, video, or applied models is enough to start. Learning the rest quickly enough to ship it is part of the job.

  • Lead the design, implementation, and maintenance of full-stack applications and platforms used across production, test, and flight, including data processing that turns telemetry, sensor data, or video into analysis engineers can use and that feeds model inference.
  • Work directly with vehicle, propulsion, test, manufacturing, and inspection engineers on their most important...
