About the role

SpaceX in Redmond, WA seeks an RF Silicon Software Engineer (RFIC Engineering) to drive low-level software for Starlink silicon. You will work across hardware and embedded software with a multidisciplinary team and own critical early-stage software that powers RF chips and drive hardware-in-the-loop testing. The role requires a degree in engineering or physics and 1+ years in C, C++, or Python, with a strong focus on RF, timing, throughput, and reliability.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
