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.
STARLINK COMMUNICATIONS MANAGER (CUSTOMER KNOWLEDGE)
Starlink Consumer Communications is hiring a Communications Manager to own published customer truth: Help Center, specs, quick-start guides, Shop copy, and the increasing number of product and service-launch scrubs that keep those channels accurate.
This person owns whether Help Center is accurate, easy to find, and useful. They set the roadmap (what we add, fix, and retire), modernize how content is published, and use analytics so Help Center drives setup, accessory purchases, professional and self-install, and orders—not only answers questions.

- Modernize how Help Center publishes, using Grok for routine drafts and updates, with this role approving what goes live

- Own Shop-adjacent copy customers act on (including shipping timelines and similar facts)
- Place purchase, accessory, and install links in Help Center and attribute orders, accessory sales, and install completions that start from those pages
- Own Help Center analytics (visits, time on page, drop-off, conversion by country) and use that to decide what to write or fix next, including photos, video, kit swap, setup, and plan explainers
- Partner with Consumer Insights on surveys: what people didn’t understand, which pages failed, what to fix next
- Partner with Customer Experience so public pages and support guidance match
- Partner with Localization and use data (analytics, tickets, conversion by country) to make the case for country-specific pages
- Work with the team that owns search so Help Center pages are findable and accurate in search

- Experience putting product, accessory, or install links in help content and measuring the orders or completions that follow
- Experience partnering with localization, support, legal, product, and operations
- Subscription, consumer-hardware, or telecommunications experience

SpaceX Insights
What We Do
SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches the world’s most advanced rockets and spacecraft. The company was founded in 2002 by Elon Musk to revolutionize space transportation, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary. SpaceX has gained worldwide attention for a series of historic milestones. It is the only private company ever to return a spacecraft from low-Earth orbit, which it first accomplished in December 2010. The company made history again in May 2012 when its Dragon spacecraft attached to the International Space Station, exchanged cargo payloads, and returned safely to Earth — a technically challenging feat previously accomplished only by governments. Since then Dragon has delivered cargo to and from the space station multiple times, providing regular cargo resupply missions for NASA.
