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. The role is part of the In-Space Systems business unit, focused on space infrastructure and increasing mobility on-orbit.

As part of the Blue Ring Spacecraft Systems Engineering team, you will apply broad multi-disciplinary engineering knowledge to ensure spacecraft satisfies customer needs through rigorous systems engineering practices. You will assist in defining and verifying system requirements, interfaces, architecture, and con ops. You will work with program interfaces including AI&T, Mission Systems, Launch Vehicle, Payloads, and Mission Operations.

The position requires strong collaboration within the SSE team and across the entire program. In this fast-paced and dynamic environment, you will contribute to innovative solutions. You will demonstrate personal leadership, technical competence, judgment, and commitment to the highest technical standards.

Join our team of problem solvers to help shape requirements, system designs, and operations to meet program needs. Develop verification methods and support integration activities on the floor. Advance spaceflight through satellite systems for space mobility.
