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 is part of Advanced Concepts and Enterprise Engineering (ACE), supporting Blue Origin’s mission of millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth.

The team fosters innovation and drives engineering workflows of the future, shared solutions and standards, simplicity and lower costs, and manufacturable  this role you will own heat rejection systems for power system products and serve as POC for thermal design and analysis. Responsibilities include generating conceptual designs for heat rejection systems and performing design trades to inform product definition, performing system and component level thermal analysis to verify product requirements, evaluating and selecting appropriate analysis tools to find a balance between model fidelity and delivery timeline, presenting analysis results to stakeholders and providing input to program schedule.

This role requires high level of ownership, comfort with ambiguity and an ability to find a path forward. We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment.
