We are a diverse team of collaborators, doers, and problem-solvers who are relentlessly committed to a culture of safety. This position will directly impact the history of human space exploration and will require your commitment and detailed attention to ensure safe and repeatable space flight. Join us in lowering the cost of access to space and enabling Blue Origin’s vision of millions of people living and working in space to benefit Earth.

As part of a diverse, passionate and accomplished team of experts, you will perform inspections involving multiple NDT methods for various spaceflight systems. You will share in the team’s impact on all aspects of assuring part integrity, quality and life span. Responsibilities for this position include part specific technique development for digital radiography and computed tomography-based inspections, involve performing volumetric reconstructions to identify off nominal conditions, failure analysis, metrology and modeling.

Functional knowledge of the operation of computed tomography and digital radiography equipment, the physics of radiation and radiography, and volumetric modeling software are required for this position.

We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required!
