Blue Origin

Washington, US · Full-time · $88,284 – $134,834

About this role

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 supports the development and operations of New Glenn, a single-configuration, heavy-lift orbital launch vehicle with a fully reusable first stage designed to be human-capable.

You will work across subsystems and support coordinated solutions to achieve our vision of “millions of people living and working in space,” applying system engineering practices predicated on your technical skills. Support the development of system engineering processes for the program and ensure consistent implementations across the program. Serve in a system integration capacity working with multi-discipline teams to arrive at technical system solutions.

Support requirements definition, validation, and verification of requirements at all levels using tools like DOORS Next Gen, system lifecycle configuration management tools, and other functional analysis toolsets. Understand and support requirements analysis and traceability, functional analysis, systems analysis, safety analysis, technical performance monitoring, verification planning and closure, and test plan development. Ensure the alignment and consistent implementation of New Glenn system engineering practices from system to lower-level program tiers.

Participate in gated reviews and develop health metrics to support insight into program health and tracking to major achievements. Passion for our mission and vision is required. Join problem solvers providing near-term value, solving novel problems, learning about exciting topics, and completing challenging activities.
