Lead Technician (Power Generation) - Memphis

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: As a Supervisor on the power generation team, you will lead the technicians who operate, maintain, and repair on-site generation that powers SpaceXSI's high-density AI supercomputing facilities. You will oversee plant technicians, process technicians, and electrical technicians as one operations and maintenance team — covering gas turbine packages, balance-of-plant, process/fluid systems, and plant electrical systems through 34.5 kV. You will operate with autonomy to solve diverse and complex problems, manage multiple workstreams at once, and work in a dynamic, fast-paced plant environment. This role directly impacts reliability, safety, and uptime at the Southaven and Memphis sites. You will keep generation online, keep maintenance disciplined and cost-effective, and build a technician team that can respond to trips, outages, and commissioning without losing the day-to-day plant. RESPONSIBILITIES: Lead a team of plant technicians, process technicians, and electrical technicians responsible for inspections, testing, operations, maintenance, and repair of power generation systems, including gas turbines and generators, balance-of-plant, fuel gas and process/fluid

ABOUT THE ROLE: We are looking for a Manager of Engineering to own the design, build-out, commissioning, and continuous improvement of automation, controls, and electrical systems at SpaceXSI's power generation facility in Southaven. This plant is critical infrastructure for SpaceXSI's AI supercomputers: it must deliver high-reliability power and supporting utilities at scale, with the uptime and response expected of a mission-critical compute campus. If it has a gas or steam turbine control system, a switchgear lineup, a plant electrical distribution network, a SCADA/DCS point, a control loop, or a supporting utility/process system (water, wastewater, fuel gas, HVAC, cooling) that must run reliably, this team designs it, specifies it, commissions it, and keeps it running. As a Manager, you will lead a team of engineers in a high-reliability, fast-paced environment. This is a hands-on technical leadership role — you will review P&IDs, challenge control philosophies, dive into DCS/PLC architecture, electrical protection schemes, and commissioning details, not just manage a roadmap. You will scale both the team and the systems as generation capacity and AI compute load g
