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 team of problem solvers as we add new chapters to the history of spaceflight! 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.

This is a unique role, which will span Materials and Process Engineering and focus on aspects of thermal processing, joining/brazing technologies, and coating processes. This role will directly impact design and manufacturability of rocket engine hardware, ultimately contributing to lowering the cost of access to space.
