*The Department

*Enterprise Information Systems (EIS) - Our EIS Software Team has been
tasked with developing a custom suite of internal applications critical to
the design and production of our Falcon Rockets and Dragon Spacecraft.  This
system will be capable of tracking every component on our vehicles from the
smallest circuit board that controls the spacecraft to the raw copper that
will eventually line our rocket engines.  It has to capture this
information, extrapolate key data and generate reports that we can leverage
to improve our designs.

*The Job

*We’re looking for software architects who like to write code.  We require
engineers who love to learn.  Be prepared to attend various technology
conferences in search of new ideas and new ways of doing things.  We’ll
provide you with a week of your own every 5-weeks to explore these ideas
without interruption (20% time).

What else?  Agile development methodologies, lunch-n-learn sessions, free
frozen yogurt, stock options and the opportunity to help advance space
technologies further than they’ve ever gone before.
