As a project engineer, you will share in the team’s impact on all aspects of spacecraft integration by collaborating with cross-disciplinary engineers, technicians, customers, Blue Origin teammates, Lunar Lander National Team partners, and facility operators across the USA.

You will support overall subsystem execution as team moves into design release, starts build, and delivers finished spacecraft to the launch pad.

This individual will be required to support design release planning and organization, supply chain integration, and collaboration across all subsystems to inform decision making for design trades in order to support overall timely build and program execution.

Special Mentions Relocation provided Travel expected up to 5 days per quarter.

• Support design release planning and organization, supply chain integration, and collaboration across all vehicle subsystems to inform decision making for design trades to support overall timely build execution.
• Act as the voice of the program for Transfer Stage in discussions with supply chain to help get parts delivered, develop sourcing strategies, maneuver around or through barriers, and mitigate shortages to support build schedule and meet customer deadlines.
• Act as a bridge between engineering and operations by owning program demand integration through MRP demand, owning BOM metrics, addressing demand signals with material planning / supply chain and engineering, and maintaining S&OP demand.
• Support design release by reviewing requirements to streamline program strategic execution while achieving mission success.
• Track and manage engineering release dates to support production readiness and reduce execution risk.
• Develop engineering-driven procurement packages, provide technical guidance for vendor/supplier selection, and maintain insight for key suppliers and critical hardware.
