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 help humanity understand the universe. Our teams are building the full Super Intelligence stack: from our Colossus supercomputers, to Grok models, to our suite of applications, including 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.
SUPPORT OPERATIONS SYSTEMS LEAD
We're hiring a Support Operations Systems Lead to help own the systems, workflows, and operating rhythms that keep User Operations running reliably at scale. This is a hands-on technical support operations role for someone who can move fluidly between live triage of our projects, backlog management of internal requests, systems health, stakeholder communication, and end-to-end program ownership. You'll work across ticketing workflows, routing logic, queue health, labeling taxonomy, escalation paths, workforce signals, and internal tooling requests. The ideal person is more technical than a traditional operations lead, more hands-on than a traditional TPM, and less software-engineering-heavy than a dedicated SWE.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Own day-to-day operations for core support systems, including ticketing workflows, routing, queues, labels, taxonomy, escalations, and related tooling; triage urgent operational issues as they arise, especially when system behavior, workforce distribution, queue health, or SLA risk looks off
Manage intake, prioritization, and follow-through for systems requests from support managers, TSEs, operations leads, engineering, product, and other internal teams
Help maintain the team's roadmap by distinguishing one-off fixes from broader system improvements, surfacing recurring pain points, and pushing back on low-leverage work
Drive smaller technical and operational programs end-to-end, being responsible for discovery, scoping and execution, rollout, documentation and success metrics
Partner with engineering, data, IT, and support leaders to debug issues, validate changes, improve monitoring, and prevent repeat failures
Use SpaceXSI and AI-native workflows to reduce manual toil, investigate issues, summarize signals, draft documentation, test changes, and improve how the team operates
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
Experience in support operations, systems operations, technical program management, or a similarly cross-functional technical systems role
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
Experience working with operational systems such as ticketing platforms, routing workflows, queue configuration, labels/taxonomies, dashboards, Slack workflows, and internal tools
Technical skills to investigate system issues, read configuration or code, and partner effectively with engineers
Excellent at triage and prioritization: when several things are broken or ambiguous, you can quickly determine what is urgent, what needs investigation, what needs escalation, and what should become a longer-term fix
Able to own work end to end: clarify the problem, align stakeholders, sequence the work, communicate tradeoffs, launch safely, and measure whether the change worked
Comfortable pushing back thoughtfully and can tell stakeholders "not yet," "not this way," or "this should be part of a broader fix" while maintaining trust
Energized by a role that blends firefighting with systems-building, and you have a strong bias toward action, clarity, and continuous improvement
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
Remote role (United States)

Own pricing and costing systems, import logistics, inventory and 3PL operations, supplier coordination, and trade accounts, building scalable workflows that support profitability and customer service.
Manage external partnerships supporting vulnerable customers, using data, specialist expertise and lived experience to improve customer journeys, products and services while ensuring strong governance and community engagement.
Own resourcing across Professional and Managed Services, balancing demand, capacity and commercial priorities while resolving booking conflicts and helping teams make informed delivery decisions.
Own cross-functional operations across people and tooling, compliance, product launches, and team priorities, improving how the company and its partners operate while keeping standards high.
Transfer and manage referral, case, and review information across internal systems and client portals, maintaining accurate documentation, timely workflow updates, data integrity, and compliance.
