NASA
- SpaceX and NASA JPL Growing up, I fantasized about working at NASA. Now that it is a real possibility, I feel dejected because the TC there and at SpaceX is so low. In a few years, when I have had enough saved away, I think I might make a jump for the experience and so that I don’t have my childhood fantasy remain unf
- NASA JPL Might be a long shot since I’ve never seen anyone with the NASA company tag...but has anyone had experience working or interviewing for a position at the JPL? What was the work-life-balance like? What was the workflow process like? Could you get things done or was the coding process very procedural
- NASA contractors I am looking actively for a job at NASA, after my internship there a few years ago I learned most of the employees are working for contractors and not as federal GS employees. Anyone have insight on what contractors hire at Johnson Space Center Texas ? I know Jacobs Engineering is one of them.
- NASA moral dilemma I work at the NASA Jet propulsion Lab. JPL is technically on a NASA site but is owned by Caltech, so it gets some benefits to being sort of government but also sort of a contractor... Well, it turns out this works nicely for their business model. They receive 90% of public money for NASA HQ to miti
- What about NASA? Thinking of applying for NASA, but are they prestigious? Or are they just another entity of the government? I heard they pay pretty low too.
- Why isn’t NASA in tier 1 with FAANG How come NASA/SpaceX stuff isn’t discussed here? There’s plenty of talk about FAANG and even 2/3 tier private companies. But I feel NASA is same or even higher tier than FAANG? They are primarily a tech company. Arguably the most interesting tech. Similar for SpaceX. I know many of y’all are on H1
- NASA JPL Opps Trying to break into aerospace from ad tech/infrastructure development - heard amazing things about NASA's JPL too. Any idea how to break into the space, or recruitment firms to talk to?
- NASA Ames software dev? Anyone know how difficult it is be hired as a software dev at NASA Ames? Probably as a contractor? Any recommendations on how to get such a job? I'm thinking about trying it out for a year or two... I know I have to get a 50% paycut but I'm ok with it.

- What motivates software engineers to choose NASA over FAANG NASA has brilliant software engineers who work on ridiculously difficult problems, but I wonder what motivates these engineers!! NASA pays shit in comparison to FAANG, and those engineers could easily make 3-5x more money working on trying to get underaged girls addicted to instagram, but they choo

I have 7 YOE, 3 in a C++/Objective C/Swift, and 4 in full stack with js and python backends. not sure if thats enough exp to work on “embedded” or actual instruments/devices. I’m not asking t

I’ve been at 2 NASA centers as a contractor: JPL- 80k now Langley- 55k (no bonus, no annual raises, bare bones benefits) 9 YOE Bachelors in Project Management It’s definitely time for a change, as I’m finding it hard to make a living with such a l
- Low Pay at NASA, Boeing, Lockheed Martin It amazes me how less scientists and engineers get paid at companies developing cutting edge technology like NASA, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon etc. If my estimate is right, they start at around 70K and plateau at 140K or something, 10-15 years later. It doesn’t just sit right with me. What a
- NASA HRBP - seeking advice and referrals I'm currently an HR Business Partner with NASA looking to transition back into the private sector.

First of all, this would be an offer with a subcontractor of a contractor at NASA. While I was expecting a pay cut (they offered less than half of what I am making), they also

This is the latest move Bezos has made after months of cr
- vote NASA R&D Robotics vs Tech Firm Manufacturing Automation I work in Robotics today (29yo - TC $122k - 6YOE) like my job a ton. But it's time to shake things up. I have 2 offers and am moving forward with one. Either NASA R&D Robotics to build working prototypes of robots designed for future missions ($144k TC). Other job is for a Tech Firm with a cool robo
- Is it true SpaceX and NASA dont pay well I've been passionate about space my whole life and got my bachelor's in Aerospace Engineering because of it. Decided to leave that career and start in SWE and am currently an AI/ML Engineer with a masters in CS and ML. I think working on a space project with AI would be a dream but I hear that the W
- What are the JPL (NASA in Los Angeles) ranges for software engineers? I've heard JPL salary might be very low, but looking for a number or range to get a better feel. I'm aiming for something that would be similar to an L5 position, or about 6-12 years of experience. On Glassdoor, it suggests $159k average, which isn't bad at all for the Los Angeles area, but heavily

- If NASA ever found evidence of alien life, would they ever tell us? I have a feeling that despite all the research being divulged by NASA, if aliens were ever recorded or found, they would not tell us. And if anyone would try to whistleblower, they would look crazy. Would the military or worse step in and take over NASA if they did find life on Saturn, Jupiter, Mars

- How can you say SpaceX and NASA is great, but Space Force is a horrible idea? I am not a trump supporter, but am confused by my fellow engineers. I get that Space Force involves weapons, but you can’t have that without solving a lot of the same hard engineering problems. If you think that tech created at NASA hasn’t been applied in the military you are crazy. What am I mis
