Propulsion Engineer (Falcon Components)

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.

PROPULSION ENGINEER (FALCON COMPONENTS)

Hardware with moving parts is the most likely to fail. As a propulsion components engineer, you will be ultimately responsible for the success or failure of state-of-the-art electromechanical, pneumatic, and hydraulic valves and actuators that drive critical capabilities across every aspect of the Falcon vehicle (engine throttling, thrust vectoring, tank pressurization, etc.). This role is the real deal—a key enabler for ensuring continued success for SpaceX and Falcon. Component failure means likely loss of vehicle, loss of mission, and possibly loss of life. Success means extending humanity’s reach to the Moon, Mars, and beyond. Our components con...
