Unfortunately, they are not well able to talk about their work or be contacts for SpaceX to outsiders, and nor will you if you get hired. The Falcon 9 carries several USRP-based radios and the flight-computer OS is Linux - their own distribution. Other Open Source software is heavily used by SpaceX. The mission control systems are built on LabView (proprietary). I got a factory floor tour and saw several interesting space things they had on hand.
