Space Jobs for Welders in Florida

Today, Blue Origin (12 roles), SpaceX (7 roles), Relativity Space (3 roles). The table above lists every employer with a role open in Florida.

Most are in Space Coast (12), Cape Canaveral (10), as the postings name their sites. A role that names several sites counts at each.

The roles here that state pay post a median $62k/yr, with typical pay from $57.6k–$67.6k/yr; 11.8% of Florida's postings state their pay at all, which our research on where space jobs are compares state by state. For reference, the 17,510 welders, cutters, solderers and brazers working in Florida, in any industry, earn a median $50.6k/yr (BLS, May 2025, the public record).

Of the 447 space postings in Florida whose text we read, 86.4% are limited to US citizens or US persons and 4.3% name a security clearance, by our research on who can apply, which compares every state. Each posting states its own rule, often citing export control under ITAR or the EAR.

We read each employer's own job board every hour. A role is listed here when it is a US role and its own location line names a place in Florida, by the same reading as our research on where space jobs are, and its title names the profession by the same rule as the page for welders; remote roles that name no state are on the remote jobs page.
