About this role
SpaceX's Executive IT Support Specialist role centers on delivering high-level technical support directly to the company's leadership team at the McGregor, Texas facility. You'll own the full lifecycle of executive IT issues—from hardware and software troubleshooting to network challenges—while coordinating with corporate IT, applications, and security teams to implement enterprise solutions. Beyond desk support, you'll design and deploy technologies for both office and residential use, manage audiovisual and conference setups for high-visibility meetings, and maintain systems that keep executives productive across multiple platforms and devices.
Success in this position demands more than technical depth. You need at least three years of enterprise IT support experience with a minimum of one year focused on executive-level clients, strong communication skills suited to a visible role, and the judgment to make independent decisions under pressure. The ideal candidate knows Microsoft and Google ecosystems well, understands video conferencing hardware and software, and stays current with emerging technologies. Equally important: you must be self-directed, organized, and willing to prioritize executive requests above all else—including working extended hours and weekends when needed.
This is a fully onsite role with no remote flexibility, and you must be a U.S. citizen, permanent resident, refugee, or asylee due to ITAR compliance requirements. The position requires the ability to lift 30 pounds unassisted.
