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.

As part of a diverse and hardworking team of engineers you will develop ground support equipment, jigs, and access platforms used to successfully launch, recover, and refurbish the New Glenn launch vehicle. You will share in the team’s impact on all aspects of the successful launch vehicle, payload, recovery, and 1st stage refurbishment processing during mission operations.

For some large and sophisticated systems, you will coordinate with and oversee suppliers' execution of contracts including tool delivery and commissioning. As a detail-oriented engineer, you will prepare and maintain the documentation required for building, servicing, and using the tools you introduce, and ensure that configuration management is established.
