About Sr. International Infrastructure Engineer (Starlink)

  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.

  SR. INTERNATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE ENGINEER (STARLINK)

  Starlink is the world’s largest satellite constellation and is providing fast, reliable internet to 2M+ users worldwide.
