Join to apply for the Principal IC Packaging Test Engineer, Silicon Technology (Starlink) role at SpaceX

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.
PRINCIPAL IC PACKAGING TEST ENGINEER, SILICON TECHNOLOGY (STARLINK)
SpaceX is leveraging its experience in building rockets and spacecraft to deploy Starlink, the world’s most advanced broadband internet system. Starlink is the world’s largest satellite constellation and is providing fast, reliable internet to 4M+ users worldwide. We design, build, test, and operate all parts of the system – thousands of satellites, consumer receivers that allow users to connect within minutes of unboxing, and the software that brings it all together. We’ve only begun to scratch the surface of Starlink’s potential global impact. As we continue to upgrade and expand the constellation, we’re looking for best-in-class engineers to join the team.
In true SpaceX fashion, Starlink is taking the next step in vertical integration by bringing integrated circuit packaging and assembly in-house for development and manufacturing. We are looking for talented hands-on and dynamic test engineers with expertise in semiconductor packaging and wafer test. You will work closely with test equipment manufacturers and in-house chip & system designers to develop and release production test solutions. You will assume full ownership of packaged component and wafer test as we strive to make Starlink more affordable to those that need it most.
