I would be very interested in applying for something as cool as working for Space-X. I have experience in aerospace, software development, aerodynamics, cryogenics, embedded hardware development, and non-IP embedded network engineering.
I would be. But.. Mcgregor, Texas? And are these jobs even real, or are they just ones that exist in the mind of PR-wonk? I'd have to relocate, learn a new language or two. I do not speak Texan, which might be a bit of a deal breaker. Would the benefits out weigh the costs?
If you can get enough 'normal' people to live in a smallish area, you can carve out a small niche of humanity from the giant wasteland of Texas. It works for Austin, Richardson (near Dallas) and, to a lesser extent, the region near the Johnson Manned Space Flight Center south of Houston.
Besides, Texas has some real advantages. Guns, Country Music, err, and a couple more, just drawing a blank at the moment.
