Systems Engineer III - Glenn

Application close date:

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!

You will work across subsystems and support integrated solutions to achieve our vision of "millions of people living and working in space" and apply system engineering practices across subject areas predicated to a high degree on your technical skills. You will support the development of system engineering processes for the program, ensure consistent implementations across the program, and serve in a system integration capacity working with multi-discipline teams to arrive at technical system solutions.

You will support requirements definition, validation, and verification of requirements at all levels of the program using tools like DOORS Next Gen, system lifecycle configuration management tools, and other functional analysis toolsets.

Additionally, this role requires understanding and supporting requirements analysis and traceability, functional analysis, systems analysis, safety analysis, technical performance monitoring, verification planning and closure, test plan development, and change management. You will ensure the alignment and consistent implementation of New Glenn system engineering practices from system to lower-level program tiers. You will also participate in gated reviews, develop health metrics to support insight into program health and tracking to major milestones.

Passion for our mission and vision is required! If you're passionate about providing near-term value, solving novel problems, learning about interesting topics, and completing challenging activities, please apply!
