Job Summary

We are seeking a highly skilled Additive Manufacturing Specialist III to join our team at Blue Origin. As a key member of our manufacturing team, you will be responsible for translating engineering intent into additively manufactured metallic flight hardware.

Your primary focus will be on educating engineers and designers on design for additive manufacturing, creating print models, and owning the manufacturing process. You will work closely with operators, quality technicians, and engineering counterparts to support the processing of complex rocket engine and rocket components.

In this role, you will use data to drive process improvements, relay design improvements to engineering, and serve as a direct feedback loop between design and fabrication.

Responsibilities:
  • Own the development of Additively Manufactured (AM) components from concept to production using Laser Powder Bed (LPB) printing.
  • Work to define and deliver production print models using state-of-the-art software tools, configuration-controlled processes, and design for AM.
  • Demonstrate machine-specific workflows and software packages to improve additive designs.
  • Participate in company process definition, documentation, and improvement teams for manufacturing processes, business processes, production planning, lessons learned, and other standards/processes as needed.
  • Develop manufacturing work instructions to clearly define the full process from print to delivery.
  • Closely manage cost, quality, build sequence, and schedule of hardware throughout the entire manufacturing process.
  • Perform root cause analyses when non-conformances and escapes are identified and deploy corrective actions.
Qualifications:
  • High school diploma/GED with at least 3 years of experience in manufacturing or engineering.
  • 3+ years of experience working in metallic additive manufacturing and design.
  • Solid understanding of design for additive manufacturing and support strategies.
  • Ability to earn trust, maintain positive and professional relationships, and contribute to a 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.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Aerospace and rocket engine development experiences.
  • Strong solid understanding of engineering concepts and design for manufacturing.
  • Hands-on experience with CAD design (Creo), support design (Magics), and simulation packages (MSC, ANSYS).
  • Proven experience developing and printing LPB hardware.
  • Experience with generating work instructions to build complex assemblies.
  • Experience creating, developing, and maturing processes to production readiness level.
Benefits:
  • Medical, dental, vision, basic and supplemental life insurance, paid parental leave, short and long-term disability, 401(k) with a company match of up to 5%, and an Education Support Program.
  • Paid Time Off: Up to four (4) weeks per year based on weekly scheduled hours, and up to 14 company-paid holidays.
  • Discretionary bonus: Bonuses are designed to reward individual contributions as well as allow employees to share in company results.
