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 enabling human life on Mars.

Sr. Manager, Starlink Enterprise Accounts (Aviation)

Starlink, our revolutionary satellite constellation, is delivering low-latency broadband internet around the world. As a leader on the Starlink Enterprise Accounts team, you will be leading and building a new team to work with Starlink enterprise customers. You and the team will be responsible for the project management of enterprise contracts to rapidly drive realization of revenue, working closely with counterparts on Starlink cross-functionally. A key challenge will be driving a culture that both maximizes customer happiness and minimizes the input required by the team.

The Enterprise Account Management team will serve as the point of contact for customers from contract signature through successful activation, ensuring all contract terms are fulfilled while identifying new opportunities to generate business with enterprise customers. Prior to contract signature, the team will have a key role in ensuring that the commitments we make are ones we can successfully execute.

In the past year, the Starlink team has signed deals with multiple airlines and aviation providers and we are looking for a leader to drive and grow that business. Our customers will be using high-speed internet in ways and places not previously available including streaming videos, participating in video calls, sending large files via email, and performing other high-data-rate activities in-flight. Additionally, the team has designed the service to be available as soon as passengers walk on the plane no more waiting for take-off for internet. Successful deployment of Starlink to aviation commercial, business, and government customers will require close collaboration and careful project management.

Our ideal candidate is a self-starter with proven experience in aviation customer success and has a passion for making customers deliriously happy, building excellent teams, and managing complex cross-functional projects.
