Shire Jobs

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! 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 role is part of the New Shepard program. New Shepard is a reusable suborbital rocket system designed to take astronauts and research payloads past the Karman line - the internationally recognized boundary of space. Through operational reusability, New Shepard supports our mission of lowering the cost of access to space. As part of a hardworking team of diverse specialists, technicians, and engineers you will tackle existing material problems for various spaceflight systems and share in the team's impact on all aspects of New Shepard. You will review production drawings for large complex assemblies, develop processes, select materials, and define design requirements. We work closely with Quality, Design, Structures, Thermal, Integration, and Manufacturing to optimize designs and processes. Your broad experience in materials & processes for metallics (e.g. forging, casting, forming, extrusion, plating, corrosion, coating, brazing, anodization, welding, passivation), composites, and non-metallics (e.g. o-rings, seals, lubricants) will be impactful to the team as we refine processes and engineering designs. Specific to this role we are seeking an M&P engineer that has significant experience designing, building, and repairing large-scale composite aerospace structures. This will include qualification, development, and improvement of process specifications of composite hardware. Our best team members are flexible in constantly evolving environments, detail oriented, and passionate. We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and dedication to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight! Passion for our mission and vision is required! Special Mentions: Relocation provided. Travel expected up to 50% of the time for approximately the first year then 5% of the time after the first year. Shifts available: 1st shift Responsibilities include but are not limited to: Develop new and robust manufacturing processes and transition into production. Create test plans, specifications, and other documentation for the development of flight hardware. Support activities to implement new processes and hardware, including tooling and equipment reviews. Provide technical and design for manufacturability guidance to ensure producibility of new hardware. Qualify internal and external processes. Review documentation to ensure compliance to hardware requirements internally and at external suppliers. Work with multi-functional teams that are responsible for selecting materials, manufacturing processes, and suppliers to produce aerospace hardware. Assist in addressing and dispositioning nonconformances. Find opportunities for improvements to quality, cost, and schedule. Coach, mentor, and technically assist other engineers.
