About this role
SpaceX's Starlink production operation in Redmond needs a Production Coordinator to manage the flow of parts and assemblies through manufacturing, keeping components moving on schedule from receiving through final production. You'd track inventory across multiple work centers, coordinate off-site processing, and work directly with planning, procurement, engineering, and production teams to maintain accurate system data and resolve discrepancies that could disrupt schedules. The role blends hands-on logistics—physically moving and protecting parts according to specifications—with data analysis and reporting, requiring you to develop metrics, update tracking systems, and communicate weekly status updates to leadership.
This is a contract position suited to someone with at least a year of manufacturing or administrative experience who is comfortable with both the physical demands of the job (standing eight hours, lifting up to 25 lbs) and the administrative side. Experience with MRP/ERP systems, inventory management, or aerospace and electronics manufacturing is valued. You'll work either first shift (5 AM–3 PM) or second shift (3 PM–1 AM), Monday through Friday, with flexibility for overtime and weekends. The role pays $22–$25 per hour depending on qualifications and experience level, with access to SpaceX's benefits package including health coverage, 401(k), paid time off, and company shuttles from Seattle locations. U.S. citizenship or permanent residency is required due to ITAR regulations.
