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! This role supports the development and operations of New Glenn, a single-configuration, heavy-lift orbital launch vehicle capable of routinely carrying people and payloads to low-Earth orbit, geostationary transfer orbit, cislunar, and beyond.

Its first stage is fully reusable, and the vehicle was designed from the beginning to be human-capable.

This role supports the development and operations of New Glenn in support of building a sustainable infrastructure for our transport of crew and cargo from Earth to the Lunar surface.

As part of a small, passionate, and accomplished team of experts, you will lead technical teams to develop and integrate SLD mission-unique hardware onto New Glenn. We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact our relationship with NASA as part of the Human Landing System (HLS) Sustaining Lunar Development (SLD) program and enable integration and launch of their payloads.
