Production Supervisor, Injection Molding - Night Shift (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. PRODUCTION SUPERVISOR, INJECTION MOLDING - NIGHT SHIFT (STARLINK) SpaceX is developing a low latency, broadband internet system to meet the needs of consumers across the globe. Enabled by a constellation of low Earth orbit satellites, Starlink will provide fast, reliable internet to populations with little or no connectivity, including those in rural communities and places where existing services are too expensive or unreliable. We are looking for organized, creative, and driven supervisors to spearhead the production of millions of consumer‑facing electronic devices called user terminals that we will ship to customers’ homes around the world. As a Starlink Production Supervisor, you will manage large teams of technicians and assemblers while working closely with manufacturing and design engineers, ultimately driving the transition from initial prototyping to full‑scale production.
