Hey HN! I'm Anthony, one of the hiring managers for software at SpaceX. Feel free to drop me a message if you're interested in learning more about what we're doing (there are many more software roles than just the ones listed here).

I'd love to speak to full stack engineers in particular!

Howdy,

I'm Steve. I work for SpaceX, and I'm the hiring manager for the 'Senior Full Stack Software Engineer (Application Software): https://grnh.se/1f5a69532us' position. I've been here for 4.5 years and I think what we do is neat.

This is an exciting time to be working in this organization. We just launched Starlink Beta; we have engineers writing software to help produce Starlinks (the dish), control our network, and manage customer accounts. At the same time, we have engineers writing software to help produce Starships, Dragon capsules, and refurbished Falcon 9 first stages. The projects we take on to aid these programs are challenging and rewarding.

If you have any questions about the role, our organization, or working at SpaceX, ask away. I'll do my best to respond promptly.

Best, Steve


Hi Steve, Nice to meet you! I am a Graduate student in Computer Science, I was wondering if there's a job posting thats more suited for entry level software developers. I found this posting and was wondering if I will be eligible to apply:https://boards.greenhouse.io/spacex/jobs/4943030002?gh_jid=4... Also, I am an F1 student so had the doubt whether SpaceX considers foreign students to Sponsor an H1B or not. Regards, Rishabh.


Howdy, I'm Steve too ;)

Thanks for the insights ... I have to say that list is one of the coolest "job boards" I've ever seen. Rocket (Computer) Science! There are a couple I'd apply to but I'm in a position where I have to work remotely for at least the near term.


That's understandable given the current state of things. If and when you are able to relocate, please don't hesitate to apply.


Hey SpaceX Steve!

I actually sent in an application last week for one of the roles listed. Totally agree it's a great time, you folks have a lot of of very cool things going on.

I do have two related questions. Just based on the listings I took a look at last week and what's here now, the engineering orgs at least seem relatively flat. Would you say that's true or is it just whats on the roster? Second question is if 'Senior' means anyting specific at SpaceX or is it just intended to communicate expectations around experience/skills?

Thanks!


If by flat you mean that we don't have a bunch of bureaucratic hierarchy, that's true. We have Engineer 1, 2, and Senior on the individual contributor line, and Lead, Manager, Sr. Manager, Director, and Sr. Director on the personnel management line. It could probably be simplified further without losing scope of responsibility information. Right now we have about 50 individual contributors and 11 personnel managers. Keeping a ratio of 5 individual contributors or less per manager makes it possible to have real career development conversations regularly.

Senior Engineer carries high expectations around scope, impact, and autonomy. In other words, Seniors have a lot of responsibility, are expected to move mountains regularly, and operate with relatively little direction.


You covered it perfectly, thank you!


> and I think what we do is neat.

Congrats, Steve.
