Fire Protection Engineer (Starlink)

FIRE PROTECTION ENGINEER (STARLINK)Starlink is the world's first and largest satellite constellation using a low Earth orbit to deliver broadband internet capable of supporting streaming, online gaming, video calls and more. We design, build, test, and operate all parts of the system – thousands of satellites, consumer antennae that allow users to connect within minutes of unboxing, and the software that brings it all together. We've only begun to scratch the surface of Starlink's potential global impact, and we are looking for world-class engineers to ensure that our facilities can meet the needs of the production and engineering teams. The Fire Protection Engineer provides engineering design support and subject matter expertise in fire protection, life safety, building and fire codes, fire hazard and risk assessment, fire and smoke spread, fire detection, alarm and sprinkler system design, industrial fire hazards, fire investigation support, and other facilities engineering expertise.RESPONSIBILITIESSupport engineering design, analysis, calculations, and specifications for facility fire and life safety systemsDevelop building and fire code compliance documents and fire life safety designs for SpaceX facilitiesDevelop AM&M (Alternate Means & Methods) to local AHJ to help with performance-based design criteria to meet the intent of the codePerform hazardous material analysis for code compliance purposes, such as chemical classification, chemical maximum allowable quantity analysis, chemical inventory management, and related system design supportSupport facility construction teams to develop field solutionsSupport commissioning activities during pre-test and AHJ testing phases for launch site facility buildsConduct fire/life safety code reviews and analysesPrepare and present technical reports and presentationsReview and comment on shop drawing design packages developed by contractorsBASIC QUALIFICATIONSBachelor's degree in an engineering discipline1+ years of experience in the design and construction of fire protection systems and/or fire protection consulting (Internship and college competitions teams count)Working knowledge of Building & Fire Codes and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Codes & StandardsPREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCEBachelor's or Master's Degree in fire protection engineeringProfessional Engineer License (P.E., passed the Principles of Engineering exam)NICET certification in relevant fire protection programsAbility to lead project design teamsKnowledgeable in OSHA complianceFire & Smoke software modeling capabilitiesConstruction Administration experienceProficient in Autodesk RevitADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTSWilling to work extended hours as needed to meet project timelinesWilling to travel 25% for specific project needsCOMPENSATION AND BENEFITSPay range:Fire Protection Engineer/Level I: $95,000.00 - $115,000.00 per yearFire Protection Engineer/Level II: $110,000.00 - $130,000.00 per yearYour actual level and base salary will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on the following considerations: job-related knowledge and skills, education, and experience.Base salary is just one part of your total rewards package at SpaceX.
