# Manager, Supplier Development Engineering

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. MANAGER, SUPPLIER DEVELOPMENT ENGINEERING This manager will lead Supplier Development Engineering for Starship pads and launch sites and for Falcon/Dragon flight hardware, including the non-flight hardware those programs depend on. The role owns the engineering organization that removes reliability risk before it reaches the launch site or the vehicle, builds a supply chain that scales with flight rate, and develops a vendor base that sustains process stability and part conformance. The work sits at the intersection of design, manufacturing, and supply chain. Success depends on early technical influence: locking requirements that suppliers can build to, stabilizing supplier processes for quality, throughput, and delivery, and keeping downstream operations free of escaped risk and undue delay. The manager will set a clear reliability vision, align it with cross-functional leadership, and turn that vision in
