À propos du poste

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. MANUFACTURING ENGINEER, TOOL & DIE MACHINING – 2ND SHIFT SpaceX is developing a low latency, broadband internet system to meet the needs of consumers across the globe.
