Development Technician (PCBA) - 2nd Shift (Starlink)

<div class="content-intro"><p>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&nbsp;enabling human life on Mars.</p></div><p><strong>DEVELOPMENT TECHNICIAN (PCBA) - 2nd Shift</strong></p> <p><span data-contrast="auto">This role serves as the bridge between production execution and engineering development for&nbsp;the&nbsp;Starlink PCBA&nbsp;team.
