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.
ABOUT THE ROLE:
We’re seeking an experienced Facilities Operations Project Manager with a strong engineering background to lead mission-critical facilities work across our Southaven and Memphis sites. As a key on-site leader on the facilities operations team, you’ll bring technical credibility, engineering expertise, and steady project leadership to fast-paced, high-impact work in live, technically advanced facilities. You’ll own vendor and internal relationships, drive site improvement and activation projects from scope through handover, and keep operating systems reliable without taking the campus offline.
You will own the project portfolio that sits between those two: retrofits, upgrades, activations, vendor-led maintenance projects, and the facilities work that has to land cleanly into an operating plant. You’ll coordinate closely with facilities supervisors, technicians, construction, engineering, and commissioning, and report to facilities operations leadership.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Act as the facilities operations project representative for the Southaven and Memphis sites, managing relationships with contractors, vendors, partners, and internal stakeholders.
- Oversee end-to-end execution of facilities operations projects, from scoping and planning through installation, commissioning, and handover into day-to-day operations.
- Develop, plan, and execute site improvement, retrofit, and activation projects in accordance with overall business objectives and strategy, including mechanical/HVAC, electrical, compressed air, plumbing, and related campus systems.
- Coordinate multiple vendors and trade partners, ensuring seamless communication between field teams, facilities supervisors, technicians, engineering disciplines, and technical stakeholders.
- Proactively identify and mitigate risks to ensure high-quality delivery, safety, schedule adherence, and operational readiness on a live campus.
