Systems Engineer III – Lunar Human Landing System

• Define Blue Origin’s Human Landing System, a lunar lander carrying astronauts to the Moon’s surface and returning them safely to Orion
• Own requirements decomposition, allocation, and traceability for a complex, cross-cutting system area
• Set the technical plan for proving the assigned scope
• Own verification requirements, methods, procedures, evidence, and closure
• Use system safety work to drive system changes and disposition variances/deviations using a risk-based standard
• Perform root-cause analysis and corrective action on major-scope technical issues
• Serve as systems-engineering point of contact for design IPTs
• Represent the assigned area at engineering and program reviews
• Drive requirements and verification-and-validation tool and process improvements
• Coordinate across sites and partners

• B.S. in aerospace, systems, or a related engineering field; an advanced degree may substitute for a portion of the experience requirement
• 5–8 years of experience solving systems-level engineering problems, with demonstrated work in requirements, verification, or system safety
• Demonstrated ownership of a complex, cross-cutting technical area with minimal oversight
• Working knowledge of interface management (ICDs/IRDs), requirements traceability and verification, and variance/deviation processes
• Ability to set a technical plan and drive it to closure across design IPTs without direct authority
• Proficiency with SE tooling (Jama, DOORS, Cameo, Windchill) and tool-driven workflows
• Must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident/current Green Card holder, or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum
• Technical assessment required during interviews
• Travel expected up to 25% of the time

Demonstrates expertise in systems-level engineering, particularly in requirements decomposition, verification, and system safety for complex aerospace projects. Proficient in managing technical plans and driving cross-functional collaboration across design teams.
