Meet Elon Musk's youngest employee
The technology billionaire, Elon Musk, has just hired newly graduated 14-year-old prodigy, Kairan Quazi, as a software engineer at his SpaceX firm. He just finished his studies California’s Santa Clara University as the youngest graduate in the school's 172-year history.
SpaceX will not be violating child labour laws by employing Quazi as he meets the minimum legal age to work under federal and Washington state law. Newsday talked to Kairan Quazi about his lightning-fast trajectory:
