What the posting says

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 making life multiplanetary and expanding consciousness to the stars.

SpaceXSI is building Super Intelligence to understand the universe and help expand humanity’s knowledge and capabilities. We work across the full Super Intelligence stack: compute (Colossus supercomputers), models (Grok), and applications (Grok Bot, Grok Build, Grok Imagine, Grok Voice, and X). We're creating a powerful flywheel where more compute trains better models, better models power more useful products, and what we learn from people using those products shapes what we build next.

ABOUT THE ROLE:

We are seeking a skilled Analytics Engineer to build and maintain robust data systems that enable high-impact quantitative analysis and business decision-making. This role combines strong software engineering practices with expertise in large-scale data processing and advanced analytical methods to deliver reliable, scalable solutions across the organization. This is an opportunity to work on mission-critical systems that power quantitative decision-making at global scale.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Design, implement, and optimize end-to-end data pipelines for processing high-volume datasets using tools such as Spark, Kafka, Flink, etc.

Develop quantitative models and statistical frameworks to support experimentation, forecasting, and performance measurement.

Build and maintain data infrastructure that ensures data quality, consistency, and accessibility for analytical workflows.

Collaborate with product engineering, product, and operations teams to translate business requirements into production-grade data systems and insights.

Conduct A/B tests, causal analysis, and performance evaluations to drive measurable improvements in key metrics.

Implement monitoring, alerting, and automation for data systems to support real-time decision support.

Mentor team members on best practices for scalable data engineering and quantitative problem-solving.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

4+ years of experience building production data pipelines and infrastructure at scale.

Strong proficiency in Python, SQL, and distributed computing frameworks (e.g., Spark, Flink, Hadoop).

Demonstrated expertise in statistical methods, predictive modeling, hypothesis testing, and experimental design.

Solid understanding of cloud services for data storage, processing, and orchestration.

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Statistics, Applied Mathematics, or related quantitative field.

Excellent problem-solving skills with a focus on delivering business impact through reliable systems

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

Prior work in consumer technology, or social media domains.

Experience with real-time streaming systems and low-latency data processing.

Contributions to open-source data tools or publications on large-scale analytics systems.

Track record of reducing operational costs or improving system efficiency through data optimizations.

Have the ability to bridge engineering excellence with rigorous analytical approaches.

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS:

$180,000 - $440,000 USD

Base salary is just one part of our total rewards package at SpaceXSI, which also includes equity, comprehensive medical, vision, and dental coverage, access to a 401(k) retirement plan, short & long-term disability insurance, life insurance, and various other discounts and perks.
