Application Period Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis until the requisition is closed. Overview 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. This role is part of Advanced Concepts and Enterprise Engineering (ACE), supporting Blue Origin’s mission of millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth. The team fosters innovation and drives engineering workflows of the future, shared solutions and standards, simplicity and lower costs, and manufacturable design. We are looking for level II‑V applicants with technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to join our team and positively impact safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required. If you’re excited by providing near‑term value, solving novel problems, learning about interesting topics, and completing challenging activities, please apply As part of a hardworking team of engineers, you’ll work to generate and communicate structural loads to support the development of new vehicles, rocket engines, and test/launch facilities. You will impact these systems by providing high quality engineering support by developing and anchoring system and component loads. You will need to be proficient at cross‑discipline interactions to ensure proper loads model assumptions to ensure correct generation of desired outputs. Proficiency in loads analysis, to include physics‑based hand calculations, finite element methods, static and dynamic structural analysis, and forcing function development is needed. Experience with simulation, mathematical modeling, data analysis, and technical writing and presentation preferred.
