SOFTWARE ENGINEER (STARSHIELD)

Starshield leverages SpaceX’s Starlink technology and launch capability to support national security efforts.While Starlink is designed for consumer and commercial use, Starshield is designed for government use, with an initial focus on earth observation, communications, and hosted payloads.

TheStarshieldsoftware team is building highly reliable in-space mesh networks, designing secure systems to guarantee access to space, designing next-gen communication and sensing software, and more. 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. We build tools that enable us to work more efficiently, and that help us build software systems that are secure, reliable, and autonomous. Our software engineers are responsible for the life cycle of the software they create, including development, testing, and operational support.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Create highly reliable software systems that control hundreds of satellites in low earth orbit

Leverage software design to improve satellite constellation performance, security, and availability to meet the needs of a wide range of users

See your software through from start to finish: from figuring out the core needs to prototyping, developing, and testing; to on-orbit rollout and beyond

Work with interdisciplinary teams to brainstorm, design, and build the next generation of satellite capabilities, from cutting-edge sensors and inter-satellite lasers to space-based cloud compute

There are several roles within the Starshield software team with different focus areas. Applicants will interview for specific focus areas based on hiring needs and qualifications. Specific role responsibilities may include:

Write high quality Linux-based C++ software for common processors and micro controllers (e.g. ARM, PowerPC, x86, etc.)

Implement networking technologies to direct data across a variety of satellites, ground operations centers, and users

Build automated ground-based software systems that integrate smart data processing with command and control of the satellites

Develop models and simulations for flight-like vehicle software testing, network performance analysis, or research & development projects

Develop tools that allow for test execution across multiple environments: virtualized hardware, real hardware-in-the-loop, and even vehicle-in-the-loop testing

Invent new systems that enable more frequent and reliable software deployment, test execution, and data analysis as part of a continuous integration and release system

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, math, or a STEM discipline; OR 2+years of professional experience insoftware development in lieu of a degree

Development experience in C, C++, or Python or full stack software development experience

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

Developed and deployed software that has been used real-world applications and projects

Solid fundamental knowledge of computer architecture and networks

Strong skills in debugging, performance optimization and unit testing

Ability to work effectivelyand creativelyin a dynamic environment with changing needs and requirements

Ability to work independently and in a team, take initiative, and communicate effectively

Ability to obtain and maintain a Top Secret or Top Secret SCI clearance

Some preferred skills and experience depend on the specific team within flight software and may include:

Experience with networking protocols (TCP, UDP,etc)

Experience developing in the Linux kernel

Experience in C++ for high performance systems

Experience with image data processing and machine learning

Strong background in math and physics

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

Note that an active clearance may provide the opportunity for you to work on sensitive SpaceX missions; if so, you will be subject to pre-employment drug and random drug and alcohol testing

Must be willing to work extended hours and weekends as needed

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:

Pay Range:

Software Engineer/Level I: $120,000.00 - $145,000.00/per year

Software Engineer/Level II: $140,000.00 - $170,000.00/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, stock options, 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 & long-term disability insurance, life insurance, paid parental leave, and various other discounts and perks.
