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. WIRELESS INTEGRATION & VALIDATION ENGINEER (STARLINK MOBILE) The Starlink Mobile network will expand Starlink's vision by providing ubiquitous connectivity and seamless access to text, voice, and data for phones and devices across the globe. The Starlink Mobile network leverages the infrastructure we've built for Starlink and provides cellular service through an additional constellation of satellites. As a wireless integration and validation engineer in the Starlink Mobile program, your focus will be on validating cellular radio access network (RAN) features, supporting interoperability and performance testing, and improving developer efficiency across the cellular protocol stack. You will collaborate with software developers to design, build, and validate new RAN features and then analyze the performance as they roll out across the network. You will develop integration and interoperability test cases to ensure the next generation of cellular devices work seamlessly across the Direct to Cell network.
