Overview

SpaceX is hiring a Software Engineer for their Special Programs team to design and develop software solutions for flight systems. You'll work with technologies like Java and Python to create high-performance applications. This role requires a strong background in software engineering and problem-solving skills.

Job Description

Who you are

You are a motivated software engineer with a strong foundation in programming languages such as Java and Python. You have experience in designing and developing software solutions, particularly in high-performance applications. You thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy tackling complex challenges that require innovative thinking. You understand the importance of software best practices and are committed to delivering high-quality code. You are adaptable and can work effectively across various engineering groups to achieve project goals. You are eager to contribute to critical software that supports future mission successes at SpaceX.

Desirable

Experience with automated testing frameworks and methodologies is a plus. Familiarity with aerospace systems or simulation technologies would be beneficial but is not required. A background in full-stack development is also advantageous, as you will be involved in managing automated testing of vehicle subsystems.

What you'll do

In this role, you will design and implement automated testing for hardware in the loop (HITL) and hardware out of the loop (HOOTL) software. Your work will ensure that deliverables meet target design criteria and operate within technical constraints. You will develop full-stack solutions to manage automated testing of vehicle subsystems, leveraging simulation and flight data. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to build a high-assurance system that accelerates the development and demonstration of cutting-edge software and hardware. Your contributions will be critical to the success of SpaceX's flight systems, and you will have the opportunity to take ownership of new features in a scalable application.

What we offer

At SpaceX, you will be part of a mission-driven team that is dedicated to making space exploration a reality. We offer competitive compensation and benefits, along with opportunities for professional growth and development. You will work in a dynamic environment where your contributions directly impact the future of space travel. Join us in our mission to enable human life on Mars and be part of a team that is pushing the boundaries of technology and innovation.
