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! This role is part of the Safety, Quality, and Mission Assurance team. This team is focused on monitoring and assessing processes that guide Blue Origin's design, manufacturing, and operations, ensuring system safety engineering, environmental health, and safety, product integrity, and continuous improvement processes. As part of a hard working team of diverse engineers with unique backgrounds you will be responsible for the development and management of system safety engineering processes and products for the design of crewed space vehicles. You must have a passion for human spaceflight, safety and mission assurance, a commitment to the fundamentals of system safety engineering, and a strong capacity to work collaboratively on complex and interesting new problems. As a System Safety Engineer at Blue Origin, you will work with systems engineering teams to identify hazards, controls, and verify compliance with safety and reliability requirements. You will assess space system architectures for fault tolerance, reliability, and safety by means of hazard analysis, fault tree analysis, failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA/FMECA). Experience with human rated space systems is desired. You will help engineers identify areas of opportunity for design improvements, minimize risk, and increase the probability of mission success. If you enjoy being challenged, working on multiple aspects of large systems, and using all the tools in your belt to tackle real problems limiting access to human spaceflight, come join us! We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and dedication to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight.
