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. IT SYSTEMS ADMINISTRATOR, IT APPLICATIONS
As a Senior IT Systems Administrator, you will serve as a key technical leader and Subject Matter Expert for our collaborative platforms—especially the full Atlassian suite (Jira Software, Jira Service Management, Confluence, and more)—while architecting and maintaining critical integrations that connect SaaS tools, CRM, ERP, billing systems, and internal applications.
You will design, build, and support RESTful APIs, GraphQL endpoints, and webhooks with a strong focus on security, reliability, data transformation, and real-time synchronization. You’ll identify automation opportunities, implement monitoring and alerting, create clear documentation, and partner directly with stakeholders to deliver solutions that improve efficiency across the organization. You’ll also lead upgrades of Atlassian applications in large, clustered Linux environments, manage complex workflows and schemes, and help mentor others while working in a fast-paced, high-impact setting.
This is a hands-on senior role for someone who combines deep technical expertise in integrations and Atlassian administration with strong customer-facing and problem-solving skills. If you want to shape the systems that enable ambitious teams to move faster and more reliably, we want you to apply!
