    Propulsion Engineer III - Seattle, United States - Blue Origin

    Default job background
    Description
    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 Blue Origin Engines business unit, where our focus is the design, development, manufacturing and testing of engines and propulsion systems.

    Built for multiple uses, our family of engines is powering the next generation of rockets for commercial, civil, national security and human spaceflight.

    In this position you will work directly with a small team, Engines Flight Support. EFS is a service center that supports our customer as they integrate, fly, and reuse Blue Origin's engines.

    It will be your responsibility to support senior engineers and advise our customers, both internal and external, as they integrate our engines into the flight vehicle, verify the installation, and certify the installation for flight.

    Leading up to day-of-launch you will be part of a team that reports engine status at Mission and Flight Readiness Reviews and help to write, review, and execute launch procedures.

    You will provide engineering support in launch/mission control during flight, analyze flight data, participate in engine subsystem data reviews, and provide feedback on flight data results to the customer base, designers, and component owners for implementation into future engine upgrades.

    In the scope of this role you will be expected to complete the certification process to sit on flight console representing the BE-3PM Engine.

    There is an expectation that after certification you will continue to support the team for at least a year beyond your certification date.

    To support post-flight engine refurbishment activities, you will assess hardware health and evaluate engine readiness for flight.

    As part of this role, you will also support development of the specification that are used for engine integration into the flight vehicles, development of flight level ConOps, and be a general voice for the Engines group at the launch site.

    If required, you will also support anomaly investigations, and assist functional managers in interviewing and hiring new talent.

    This position will directly impact the history of space exploration and will require your dedication, commitment, and detailed attention towards safe and repeatable spaceflight.

    Aside from direct launch and flight support, you will serve as Engines point of contact for the vehicle customer, lead problem solving efforts, and assist in dispositioning non-conformances including on-site supervision of off-nominal field maintenance when required.

    As subject matter expert in launch vehicle and flight operations you will help establish standards to streamline the engine integration and checkout process to minimize schedule impacts and identify, communicate, and mitigate risks.

    We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight.

    Passion for our mission and vision is required

    Qualifications:
    Minimum of a B.S. degree in aerospace/mechanical engineering or physics
    At least 5+ years experience in propulsion development, test, or launch/flight operations.
    Strong understanding and ability to apply engineering fundamentals including thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and structures
    Experience with propulsion launch vehicle or engine test operations, from engine integration through mission operations
    Experience in test or flight data analysis
    Experience with instrumentation such as pressure transducers, thermocouples, and accelerometers
    Knowledge of cryogenic propellants (liquid hydrogen, liquefied natural gas and liquid oxygen)
    Knowledge of engine components such as pumps, valves, regulators, actuators and other high pressure and cryogenic fluid system components
    Ability to identify and handle risks in a complex dynamic system
    Knowledge of system engineering practices
    Desire to work in a collaborative, fast paced, and multifaceted environment
    Strong written and verbal communication skills
    Willingness to travel to support flight and test activities
    Ability to earn trust, maintain positive and professional relationships, and strengthen our culture of inclusion
    Must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.
    Advanced degree in aerospace/mechanical engineering or physics
    Experience with liquid rocket engine testing
