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, passionate, and accomplished team of experts, you will oversee component fabrication, assembly, and testing of flight batteries for various spaceflight systems. If you share our passions and vision, thrive in a dynamic startup environment, excel on integrated cross-functional teams, are experienced and skilled in several relevant technologies (even if perhaps not in the aerospace industry), continuously seek out opportunities to learn and improve, enjoy occasional travel, and do not allow title or job description to limit the depth or breadth of your contributions, then we would love to hear from you. This position will directly impact the history of space exploration and will require your dedicated commitment and detailed attention towards safe and repeatable spaceflight. Develop proof of concept processes, controls, and inline testing for battery manufacturing. Specify production equipment and tooling, work with suppliers on equipment bring up, training, and process controls. Develop manufacturing work instructions and documentation for fabrication and production assemblies. Work from concept through volume production on multiple battery designs. Assist in verification activities as required, including end of line testing and qualification. Closely manage quality, build sequence, and schedule of hardware throughout the entire manufacturing process. Perform engineering drawing review and provide final approval for manufacturing. Define and support repair and rework activities. Perform root cause analyses when non-conformances and escapes are identified and deploy corrective actions. Design proper material handling and packaging to protect hardware throughout the build and test process. Manage hardware configuration and maintain pedigree throughout the entire build and test process. Extreme customer focus combined with strong verbal and written communication. Qualifications: Bachelor of Science in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Industrial, or Aerospace Engineering (other relevant fields may apply) from an accredited university. Minimum 5 years of direct manufacturing and manufacturing engineering experience. Hardware manufacturing experience with battery systems, cell modules, and cell welding. Advanced knowledge of manufacturing methodologies in application to Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), modeling, drawing, change management, Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), and Design for Manufacturability (DFM). Expert in leading advanced build process development projects, technical relationship management with vendors, hardware focused project management and cost analysis, and tool development support. Experience in being able to understand and apply engineering fundamentals across the development cycle of systems including requirements, design, analysis, fabrication, assembly, integration, verification, and test. Experienced on how to address Root Cause and Corrective Action (RCCA) of nonconformance (NC) including design and producibility improvements. A demonstrated ability to work cooperatively with teams of diverse skills across large geographic distances. Strong written, personal, technical, and software skills (CAD, Scheduling, I
