I know that only US Citizens and Green Card holders can work for SpaceX. I know that I might not be guy who flies to Mars in the first batch but I definitely want to add mine 2¢. (mostly around intuitive user interfaces) An alternative is to open subsidiary in the UK / EU...

Unfortunately just opening a subsidiary in another country doesn't help, one of the 'features' of ITAR is that it is extraterritorial, so even if you open a subsidiary in another country all the ITAR provisions apply in that country, as well as all the export controls of that country. It's tons of fun even working for a Canadian company.

I had extremely negative experience with HR from Skyscanner. After getting the process started from mailing on the mentioned email address, it took 3 reschedules to get 1st call setup because of random reasons. And, after first call and initial writeup submission, I haven't heard back from HR after month either way. Considering such unprofessional handling, I'd recommend against them.

Hi SITZ, can you send me an email with your details? I'd love to to chase this up on your behalf. We've had a large volume of applicants on the run up to Christmas.

I also had a pretty negative experience with their HR about 1 year ago(it was actually me backing out from the process at a very early stage as they were unable to provide me with answers of what I considered simple concrete questions). Since then though, I've met some fun & knowledgeable people working there and it doesn't seem like bad company to join.

Thanks for the feedback - if you have any more questions or are thinking of applying, I'm a principal engineer and would be more than happy to chat about life here

We're a small team of engineers, designers, and product builders that were brought in to help fix Healthcare.gov in the winter of 2013. Our revamped application is used by millions, converts 35% better, and halves the completion time.

It turns out there’s a lot more to reimagine within government services, which is why we’re partnering with both the Department of Veterans Affairs and Medicare. With the VA, we are working to modernize their appeals system, making millions of veteran’s lives better through the process. Today, the average appeal takes 5 years to process; we can fix this. For Medicare, we are designing and building the architecture for Medicare's historic transition towards value-based care.

It’s surprising how much can be done by a small group of empathetic people with a Silicon Valley mindset, deep technical experience, working closely with dedicated civil servants in government. We’ve started Nava as a public benefit corporation to radically improve how our government serves its people, and we believe that the services our government provides should be clear and reliable. If you feel the same way, we'd love to hear from you at jobs@navahq.com
