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.TEST TECHNICIAN, ENVIRONMENTAL TEST (STARLINK) - 2ND SHIFTWe're seeking an experienced test specialist with a strong affinity toward multidisciplinary testing, design development, and problem-solving.
