About the role

SpaceX in Bastrop, TX is seeking a Senior Operations Engineer to own the blades and vanes foundry buildout, from design through ramp‑up. You will drive lean factory layouts, coordinate cross‑functional teams, and lead complex projects to deliver capacity with minimal cost. Qualifications include a engineering degree and 5+ years in industrial/operations or construction engineering, plus hands‑on leadership and data‑driven decision making. Expect extended hours and travel as needed.

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.
