Blue Origin
Aerospace Systems Engineer II - Lunar Permanence
Blue Origin, Merritt Island, Florida, us, 32954
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.
This role is part of the Lunar Permanence business unit, which develops Blue Origin’s Blue Moon landers and related products. We are building sustainable infrastructure for our transport of crew and cargo from Earth to the lunar surface.
We are looking for an aerospace systems engineer to help craft the gas system for the Lunar Transporter spacecraft. Work will include the complete life cycle of the gas sub-system from definition, interfaces, conceptual design, detailed design, component development, assembly, verification, and operations.
A successful candidate will understand fluid systems, systems engineering practices, fluid dynamics, and compressible flow for space vehicles.
Responsibilities
Work at significant technical depth on complex subsystems with some oversight as part of the Transporter Gas Sub-System
Support the development and execution of component and subsystem tests
Coordinate plans for subsystem verification test and analysis
Review and approve engineering changes from a system safety and reliability perspective
Understand and apply systems engineering fundamentals across the development cycle of systems
Integrate between fluids and propulsion subsystem and overall system level vehicle design, analysis, software, and operations
Ensure timely updates and communication of system level architecture diagrams, schematics
Perform Failure Modes and Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA)
Tackle the broad range of gas and thruster design engineer tasks
Minimum Qualifications
B.S. in Aerospace, Mechanical, Physics, Systems Engineering or related technical subject area
3+ years of proven experience in fluids, propulsion, or aerospace systems
Experience with fluid/gas components
Experience with systems engineering principles
Ability to assess mission-specific risks as a result of the status of hazard controls
Develop and maintain safety documentation
Ability to work effectively and collaboratively in a fast-paced, dynamic work environment
Familiarity with agile planning
Excellent verbal, written, and graphical communications skills
Desired Qualifications
Experience driving the development and validation of system requirements to ensure safety considerations are appropriately addressed
Experience assessing fluids and propulsion hazards and their causes to develop system safety constraints and control strategies
Experience supporting early trade studies to drive design-for-system safety and reliability into the fluids and propulsion architecture
Experience performing reliability analysis to identify design weaknesses and inform design improvements
Experience reviewing and approving engineering changes from a system safety and reliability perspective
Experience performing system safety and/or reliability analyses on satellites or human-rated in-space systems
Experience performing compliance assessment of system safety processes and products against external standards
Experience with certification of human-rated space systems
