Job Details
Application close date:
Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis until the requisition is closed.
At Blue Origin, we envision millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth. We're working to develop reusable, safe, and low-cost space vehicles and systems within a culture of safety, collaboration, and inclusion. Join our diverse team of problem solvers as we add new chapters to the history of spaceflight!
This role is part of the Lunar Permanence business unit, which develops Blue Origin's multiple Blue Moon lander product lines. To further Blue Origin's mission of having millions of people living and working in space, we are building sustainable infrastructure for our transport of crew and cargo from Earth to the lunar surface.
We are a diverse team of collaborators, doers, and problem-solvers who are relentlessly committed to a culture of safety. This position will directly impact the history of space exploration and will require your commitment and detailed attention towards safe and repeatable space flight. Join us in lowering the cost of access to space and enabling Blue Origin's vision of millions of people living and working in space to benefit Earth. This position will be in the Lunar Permanence Business unit at Blue Origin.
As a Lunar Vehicle Configuration Engineer, you are responsible for overall vehicle configuration and associated trades, vehicle CAD, mass properties, vehicle configuration analyses (like dynamic clearance, sensitive surface, contact etc.), vehicle level engineering drawings and cross-subsystem interfaces. You will also work on deploying new configuration approaches and adoption of tools, along with developing and maintaining the vehicle configuration baseline. You will also be responsible for defining program level guidance on engineering release and addressing design for manufacturing concerns across the program. You will work to integrate the vehicle configuration approaches with configuration initiatives across the Lunar business unit and Blue Origin.
We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact safe human space flight. Passion for our mission and vision is required!
