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.

As an Industrial Designer on the Starlink team, you’ll help shape the future of global connectivity by designing exceptional consumer products, services, and experiences that delight users worldwide. You’ll be hands-on at the intersection of design, manufacturing, and innovation, tackling complex technical challenges, optimizing production processes, and crafting compelling product stories that bring our vision to life.

You’ll champion the full design process: sketching, building digital and physical models, developing bold design themes, and driving seamless integration from concept all the way through to production.
