The Starship Avionics Mechanical Integration and Durability team is responsible for designing a Starship avionics system that is optimized for high reliability at a low mass and cost. Our charter is to develop highly producible mechanical designs and packaging solutions that protect our electronics from the harsh mechanical and thermal environments of launch vehicle operations.  RESPONSIBILITIES: Design packaging solutions for electro-mechanical assemblies Thermal, structural, and tolerance analysis for electro-mechanical assemblies using both hand calculations and finite element analysis Participate in initial mechanical design, 3D modeling, creation of production drawings and maintenance of design data Failure analysis of components as it relates to thermal, loads, vibration and shock Interface with machine shops and production teams to ensure final designs can be produced in accordance with overall project goals Own the hardware delivery timeline and success through inception, d...

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. As a mechanical engineer on the Life Cycle team, you will have a unique opportunity to be the bridge between design and production. You will be equally anchored in both disciplines with the ability to spearhead change throughout a product’s life cycle. You will be expected to support and troubleshoot electro-mechanical assemblies, design fixtures/tools, and identify opportunities for improvement in the product design. You will have the opportunity work on and improve the wide variety of avionics devices that enable SpaceX vehicles to be the safest and most reliable access to space. You will put your engineering knowledge to the test by performing real-time troubleshooting as the product goes through production...
