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.

CONSTRUCTION SUPERINTENDENT, MECHANICAL - NIGHT SHIFT

You will oversee mechanical contractors and crews building the advanced mechanical infrastructure for SpaceXSI's Memphis Data Center — including large-scale HVAC and cooling systems, chilled water plants, condenser water systems, process piping, pumps, CRAC/CRAH units, cooling towers, and fire protection systems. If you thrive on hands-on leadership, complex industrial mechanical construction, and contributing to high-impact AI infrastructure, join us to help deliver one of the most advanced and efficient data centers in the world. If you are a hands-on mechanical construction leader who excels in high-stakes, mission-critical environments and is ready to own the night shift on groundbreaking AI infrastructure, we encourage you to apply.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Oversee and coordinate mechanical installations during night shift hours, including chilled water piping, condenser systems, HVAC equipment, cooling towers, pumps, heat exchangers, ductwork, CRAC/CRAH units, and fire suppression systems for SpaceXSI data centers
Manage and schedule mechanical contractors, subcontractors, and on-site crews to deliver project milestones on time and to SpaceXSI's exacting quality and reliability standards
Ensure all contractors adhere to mechanical scope, delivering high-integrity cooling and process systems critical to data center uptime, efficiency, and thermal management
Monitor daily night-shift progress of mechanical construction, maintaining detailed logs, red-line drawings, and as-built documentation for all mechanical infrastructure
Develop and enforce aggressive construction schedules while keeping the project on time and within budget
Champion and enforce SpaceXSI's safety program, building a zero-incident culture across all teams working around heavy mechanical equipment, pressurized systems, and elevated work during night operations
Lead, train, and supervise foremen and mechanical crews, fostering teamwork and accountability in a high-stakes mission-critical environment
Proactively resolve on-site challenges — material delays, technical conflicts, sequencing issues, and coordination with electrical/civil trades — with a strong focus on mechanical system reliability and code compliance
Conduct regular night-shift site inspections to verify compliance with local regulations, mechanical codes, safety protocols, and SpaceXSI's stringent quality standards
Prepare and present clear progress reports, mechanical construction metrics, and risk updates to senior leadership
