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. BUILD SPECIALIST, AUTOMATION CONTROLS (STARSHIP LAUNCH PAD) The Starship Tower Launch Mount team is looking for controls build specialists to help make the next generation of launch pads a reality.

This role will be focused on bridging the gap between detailed design and activations – that is, developing planning for installing conveyances and pulling cables, building up a healthy supply chain of commonly used parts, assisting in the field as needed, and feeding back lessons learned from the build to the design team.
