Role summary

This role supports the design, documentation, and coordination of outside plant (OSP) fiber optic infrastructure. The engineer will produce construction drawings, route maps, and as-built records using AutoCAD and GIS tools. Responsibilities include preparing OSP fiber design drawings, conduit layouts, splice diagrams, and permitting packages, as well as creating and maintaining GIS-based route maps and asset inventories. The role also involves assisting with field surveys, BOM development, and coordinating with various teams to ensure compliance with company standards and industry guidelines. A degree or equivalent experience in a related field, working knowledge of AutoCAD and GIS software, and a basic understanding of OSP fiber optic concepts are required.

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 making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars.SpaceXSI is building Super Intelligence to help humanity understand the universe. Our teams are building the full Super Intelligence stack: from our Colossus supercomputers, to Grok models, to our suite of applications, including Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X. We're creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next.
