Launch Ops Manufacturing Engineers; Levels II, III, Sr​/All Shifts

At Blue Origin, we envision millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth. We are 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!

• Support the industrialization of new products in areas such as solar arrays, integration and test, avionics, and structures.
• Contribute to design for manufacturability (DFM), design for assembly (DFA), design for test (DFT) to build reliable vehicles for space exploration.
• Translate engineering requirements into robust, repeatable manufacturing processes that support Blue Origin's mission.
• Collaborate closely with design engineering, quality assurance, supply chain, and production teams to accelerate building a road to space.
• Develop and maintain manufacturing documentation, including work instructions, process flow diagrams, tool designs, and inspection plans.
• Evaluate and implement new manufacturing technologies and methods (e.g., composites, precision machining, additive manufacturing, advanced assembly).
• Support root cause analysis of process or product non-conformances; develop and implement corrective actions that enhance reliability and performance.
• Ensure all work aligns with applicable quality and safety standards (AS9100, ISO 9001), supporting a safe and sustainable future in space.
• Participate in process FMEAs, risk assessments, and validation of new production lines and equipment.
• Identify and complete opportunities for efficiency gains and cost reduction, optimizing our ability to achieve our mission at scale.
• Gain expertise in at least one key specialty area (solar arrays, integration and test, build flow/sequencing, avionics, structures, etc.), with the desire to deepen expertise and broaden impact.

As a Launch Ops Manufacturing Engineer, you'll help drive the rate and reliability of New Glenn's critical launch infrastructure — including our massive Transporter/Erector, LC36 Launch Pad, Mobile Test Stand, and specialized test facilities. This team doesn’t just maintain hardware; we continuously reinvent it to enable a stepchange in launch cadence and reliability.

You’ll bring (and grow) technical depth in one or more of: cryogenics, pneumatics, hydraulics, mechanical systems and large structures, electronics and transducers, PLCs, and/or software. Your curiosity and ability to quickly learn across disciplines will be your superpower as you become a true subject‑matter expert on your systems and use that insight to drive meaningful innovation.

Safety excellence is our foundation. You’ll apply safety‑by‑design thinking to complex, high‑energy systems while pushing reliability higher and operations faster, helping transform New Glenn infrastructure to support dozens of launches per year. Engineers who thrive here pair strong technical judgment with bold ideas—and feel a real jolt of excitement seeing their designs help launch one of the world's most powerful rockets into orbit.
