EQUIPMENT RELIABILITY ENGINEER (STARLINK)

At SpaceX we’re leveraging our 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 9M+ 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 and are looking for best-in-class engineers to help maximize Starlink’s utility for communities and businesses around the world.

The primary role of the Equipment Reliability Engineer is to identify and manage asset reliability risks that could adversely affect factory or business operations. As production develops and increases rate, the Equipment Reliability Engineer's primary goal is to achieve maximum asset and system up-time by implementing and executing plans to minimize production losses, unpredictable asset behavior, and unusually high costs for system maintainability. In addition, the Equipment Reliability Engineer acts as the accountable engineering resource in driving the design, build, and installation stages of new and modified assets as well as provides technical support to maintenance management, technicians, and production personnel to prevent and mitigate operational issues of critical equipment.

• Prepare asset documentation package for review of system mechanical design, controls, and software
• Develop engineering solutions to repetitive failures and equipment-specific problems that adversely affect plant operations including capacity, quality, cost, or regulatory compliance issues
• Work with production to perform analyses of assets including asset utilization rate, overall equipment effectiveness, remaining useful life, operational restrictions, and other parameters that define the operating condition, reliability, and costs of assets
• Provide technical support to production, maintenance management, and technical personnel
• Manage production requests for asset improvement, control functions, and data collection
• Apply value analysis to repair/replace, repair/redesign, and make/buy decisions
