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 supports the development and operations of New Glenn, a single-configuration, heavy-liftorbital launch vehicle capable ofroutinelycarrying people and payloads to low-Earth orbit, geostationary transfer orbit, cislunar,and beyond.Its first stage is fully reusable, and the vehicle was designedfrom the beginningto be human-capable.
As part of a small team, you will work on launch vehicles, space vehicles, and launch facility systems for the New Glenn Program. We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership, and commitment to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required!
You will work across subsystems and support integrated solutions to achieve our vision of \"millions of people living and working in space\" Utilize system engineering practices across disciplines predicated to a high degree on your technical skills, support the development of system engineering processes for the program, ensure consistent implementations across the program, and serve in a system integration capacity working with multi-discipline teams to arrive at technical system solutions. You will also support the development, allocation, and verification of requirements at all levels of the program using tools like DOORS Next Gen, system lifecycle configuration management tools, and other functional analysis toolsets.
Additionally, this role requires understanding and supporting requirements analysis and traceability, functional analysis, systems analysis, safety analysis, technical performance monitoring, and developing strategies and approaches for specialty engineering (operability, reliability, maintainability, supportability), and system product life cycle processes. You will also support the alignment and consistent implementation of New Glenn system engineering practices for system to lower-level program tiers as well as across program systems. You will also help develop health metrics to support insight into program health and track major milestones. You will also participate in gated reviews. You should be able to understand and document system behaviors with architecture.
Responsibilities:
The Operational Integrator is responsible for ensuring the launch vehicle, ground equipment, and personnel are ready for operation for all phases of the New Glenn Stage 1 mission including pre-launch, boost, landing, and recovery. OIs are responsible for the following deliverables for their assigned scope: Engineering Operational Requirements (EORs), Maintenance Requirements (MRs), Launch Commit Criteria, Required Equipment List (REL), and alerts. OIs also provide operational guidance to support the following products: Timeline databook, Catastrophic Command Evaluation, Health Reporting, and Loss of COMM\'s behavior.
Author operations documents that define product testing requirements, operations lifecycle, maintenance requirements, and critical performance/requirements interfaces across the system
Serve as primary subsystem engineering/technical POC for systems engineering and systems safety artifacts.
Provide operational feedback to subsystem designers and support operational analysis.
Lead design integration trade studies considering vehicle operations through all phases of the mission including pre-launch, boost, landing, and recovery.
Provide program support to the chief engineer office for delegated engineering change requests, design review actions, performance metrics/assessment, and technical risk management.
Document and manage critical performance, operational requirements, and r
