SpaceX Manufacturing Specialist at SpaceX responsible for owning production rooms and multiple process types in Starlink silicon assembly. Drives continuous improvement and trains technicians.
Responsibilities
Own a production room that runs multiple process types. Move across those processes and hold every one of them to the same standard.
Own output, yield, safety, and 5S on your shift. When performance is off, contain the issue and stay with it until the corrective action is in place.
Troubleshoot from first principles. Distinguish actual process behavior from alarm indications, present the supporting evidence, and identify the root cause.
Take on a new process in the room. Learn its constraints, recipe rules, and failure modes, then run it and train technicians to the same standard.
Drive continuous improvement. Identify the limiter, change the process with engineering, document the change in the work instruction, and measure the effect on throughput or first-pass yield.
Train technicians until they can run the process independently. Qualify them only to a standard you would defend.
Keep the room safe and in 5S, and hold that standard on every shift.
