Screen Printing Equipment Engineer, Solar Cells (Starlink)

Starlink believes in providing fast, reliable internet to those that need it most. We design, build, and launch the world's largest and most advanced satellite constellation that is capable of delivering high-speed internet to even the most remote locations. 

As a Screen Printing Equipment Engineer, you will own the screen printing and related metallization equipment used to manufacture silicon heterojunction solar cells at massive scale. You will work closely with our existing Metallization/Screen Printing Process Engineering team to ensure world-class equipment performance, reliability, and uptime. While the process team focuses on paste properties, contact formation, and cell efficiency, you will be the hardware owner responsible for tool availability, stability, and scaling to support our ambitious goals. 

Your work will form the backbone of the Starlink network (photons of sunlight in is directly proportional to photons of data out to customers!) and help provide internet to tens of millions of customers all around the world. You will spearhead state of the art production equipment for an internal solar cell production line, providing high efficiency and high-quality solar cells for both our latest generation Starlink satellites and for Starship missions to the Moon and Mars.
