SR. SATELLITE POLICY MANAGER, APAC (STARLINK)

SpaceX is leveraging our experience in building rockets and spacecraft to deploy Starlink, the world's most advanced broadband internet system. Starlink is the world's largest satellite constellation that provides fast, reliable internet to millions of users worldwide. We design, build, test, and operate all parts of the system – thousands of satellites, consumer receivers that allow users to connect within minutes of unboxing, and the software that brings it all together. Our customers currently include teachers in the most remote parts of the Amazon, researchers in Antarctica, digital nomads who travel via RV, emergency responders, commercial airlines, cruise lines, and residential users who live in more rural or developing areas. We've only begun to scratch the surface of Starlink's potential global impact and are looking for best-in-class engineers to help maximize Starlink's utility for communities and businesses around the globe.

Telecommunication is a heavily regulated business and this position will lead SpaceX's regulatory and policy strategy to ensure these regulations enable and protect the provision of this ground-breaking service.

  • Draft pleadings, letters, and other advocacy pieces to promote SpaceX's policy positions
  • Research and advise the Starlink team regarding other relevant policy issues
  • Advocate to optimize prospective satellite and telecoms regulatory frameworks and policy environments in alignment with SpaceX business objectives
  • Provide strategic regulatory advice and advocacy support to business development efforts, which may include:
    • Opportunities for regional/national partnerships
    • Global satellite expansion plans in support of the business strategy for new satellite market requirements and new service offerings initiatives

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Bachelor's degree
  • Professional fluency in Japanese
  • 10+ years of experience working with government agencies and policies
