SpaceX has a focus on rockets, so anything critical to that is first line. But being a systems admin isn't that, even if it is important. They don't have SREs, or people who work on languages or ML. Traditional rocket dynamics predominates. (Worryingly, they don't seem to have any formal methods / MC / validation jobs either, which is a bit of a red flag, cf Ariane failures. Human factors also seems a bit lite.)
In contrast Google is focused on the things CS/EE love, and mech eng/physics takes a back seat. Just far more roles available.
