RF & Wireless Compliance Engineer (Starlink)

SpaceX

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.

RF & WIRELESS COMPLIANCE ENGINEER (STARLINK)

SpaceX is leveraging its experience building rockets and spacecraft to deploy Starlink, the world’s most advanced broadband internet system. Starlink is the world’s largest satellite constellation that provides fast, reliable internet to millions of users worldwide. We design, build, manufacture, and operate all parts of the system including thousands of satellites and millions of customer kits. Our customers currently include teachers in the most remote parts of the Amazon, researchers in Antarctica, digital nomads who travel via RV, emergency responders, commercial airlines, cruise lines, and residential users who live in more rural or developing areas. While users can get online within minutes almost anywhere in the world, we’ve only begun to scratch the surface of Starlink’s potential. We are looking for best-in-class engineers to help maximize Starlink’s utility for individuals, communities, and businesses.

Product Compliance Engineers will play a critical role as SpaceX strives to deliver internet to those that need it most. They will drive regulatory efforts, impact internal design decisions, and obtain the product certifications needed to sell and ship millions of consumer-facing devices. These devices - including Starlink dishes, Wi-Fi routers, power supply, accessories, etc. – are designed and manufactured completely in-house by SpaceX. We are hiring an RF/Wireless Compliance Engineer focused on regulatory certification of Starlink’s radio products and systems.

  • Work directly with RF hardware and firmware teams to implement design changes required for certification

  • Prepare and maintain technical files and certification applications

  • Support global market access for wireless features, including new frequency bands and power levels

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, other STEM discipline

  • 1+ years of experience in RF/wireless regulatory compliance and certification (internship experience is applicable)

  • Experience running RF compliance test campaigns

  • Ability to read and interpret radio standards and translate them into actionable design requirements
