SpaceX is looking to build a smarter, more automated, and more resilient global infrastructure system for Starlink's ground network through software and data, aiming to make deploying and maintaining this infrastructure fast, predictable, and reliable.
Requirements
- Experience in Python or SQL
- Experience with inventory systems, logistics workflows, and/or supply chain tooling
- Proficient in C, C++, or Angular
- Basic understanding of Kubernetes concepts, including pods, services, deployments, and namespaces
- Prior success in delivering strong data visualizations using tools such as PowerBI, Grafana, Metabase or other real-time metrics systems
- Experience building backend services using APIs (Celery, FastAPI, Django, or similar frameworks) and system-to-system data exchange in logistics and supply chain environments
- Proven track record developing custom forecasting tools and planning logic
Responsibilities
- Develop and automate systems to optimize antenna, optical hardware, and critical spare part flow through inventory and logistics accounting for inventory stock levels, telemetry data, and predictive failure models
- Build and maintain forecasting engines to predict hardware demand from deployment planning, team and program targets
- Architect backend services, APIs, and workflows to integrate planning, logistics, and inventory systems (Warpdrive ERP/MRP, 3rd party logistics service provider’s APIs)
- Automate supply chain processes, including inventory syncs, order creation, kitting, shipment validation, and spares replenishment
- Refactor and scale data ingestion and delivery systems to handle increased deployment volume and geographic expansion
- Create tools and dashboards to track real-time metrics on shipments, inventory, deployment timelines, and reliability
- Develop and monitor performance metrics for build, deployment, and ongoing maintenance/reliability of the Ground Network hardware fleet (antennas, network/optical devices
Other
- Own end-to-end workflow deployment and optimization of Starlink Ground Network processes
- Identify and resolve inefficiencies in material flow and logistics, developing standardized processes and key performance indicators
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to translate engineering needs into system requirements and drive adoption
- Support emergency deployments and incident response by managing critical operational and data workflows
- Must be able to work extended hours or weekends to meet deployment deadlines
