SpaceX mechanical, structures and thermal engineering jobs in space

129, counted on the SpaceX careers site at SpaceJobs.Now's latest read, spread over Texas (69), California (37), Washington (18) and Florida (9). The full SpaceX openings list sorts every role by discipline.

Where a SpaceX posting gives a range, its row below shows it, but too few of these roles do for a typical figure yet. Mechanical salaries across employers are measured over every company.

They cluster in Hawthorne, CA (36), Bastrop, TX (35), Starbase, TX (31), Redmond, WA (15) and Cape Canaveral, FL (9). A role posted at more than one site is counted at each of them.

A mechanical or aerospace engineering degree; CAD (NX, CATIA, SolidWorks) and FEA analysis for most roles. The posting itself sets the bar (degree, years, clearance or citizenship), so read it first.

SpaceJobs.Now reads the SpaceX careers site every night; a role drops off once SpaceX takes it down. Open any role for the complete description, and the Apply step hands you to SpaceX's own form. No real space employer charges a fee to be hired, so treat any request for money as a scam.
