Software Engineer (Dynamics)

SpaceX is seeking a Software Engineer to join their Starship Dynamics team, focusing on dynamic and vibration analyses for the revolutionary Starship vehicle. This role combines software engineering with aerospace engineering, where you'll develop critical tools and automation systems that directly impact vehicle development. The position involves creating software that interfaces with structural dynamics, flight data processing, trajectory design, and engine dynamics analyses.

As a Software Engineer on the Dynamics team, you'll be at the forefront of SpaceX's mission to enable human life on Mars. You'll work with cutting-edge technology, developing robust and scalable software solutions that support the rapid development and testing of the Starship vehicle. This role offers a unique opportunity to blend software development skills with aerospace engineering principles, making it perfect for candidates who are passionate about both programming and space exploration.

The ideal candidate should have a strong foundation in software development, particularly in Python and SQL, combined with an understanding of physics or engineering-based simulation. You'll be working in a fast-paced environment where your code will directly influence the development of humanity's first fully reusable spacecraft designed for Mars missions.

This position offers the chance to work at SpaceX's Starbase facility in Texas, where you'll be close to the action and able to see the direct impact of your work on Starship's development and testing. You'll collaborate with various engineering teams, requiring excellent communication skills and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team. The role provides an exceptional opportunity to contribute to SpaceX's mission of making life multiplanetary while working with some of the most advanced spacecraft technology in the world.
