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 diverse team of problem solvers as we add new chapters to the history of spaceflight!
This role is part of the Lunar Permanence business unit, which develops Blue Origin’s multiple Blue Moon lander product lines. To further Blue Origin's mission of having millions of people living and working in space, we are building sustainable infrastructure for our transport of crew and cargo from Earth to the lunar surface.
As part of a diverse and hardworking team of engineers and designers, you will serve as the Requirements and Verification Lead across the Cargo Delivery Element (CDE) and its interfacing spacecraft, reporting directly to the CDE Senior Manager. You will work to define vehicle and module-level requirements in support of the Sustaining Lunar Development (SLD) program life-cycle to ensure a successful verification, validation, and certification campaign of the CDE. The generation and ownership of program specification documentation and other systems engineering artifacts will be part of your everyday role. This work also includes shaping of requirements and interface definitions as they apply to other SLD elements that have a stake in the CDE and its mission architecture. You will lead in the verification and validation planning and processes, including overseeing those products delivered by the supporting National Team partners, to certify the CDE. You will be expected to direct and coordinate these requirements with program systems engineering and external element teams. You will support the CDE team, including both systems engineers and systems integrators, to implement such processes and strategies, that will provide Lunar Permanence lander vehicles with Cargo Accommodations products to enable unprecedented crew and mass to surface capabilities.
As a Requirements & Verification Lead, you will work directly with NASA and our National Team Partners and Human-class Cargo providers as part of the Human Landing System (HLS) SLD program. You will play a key role in developing the Lunar Permanence system that will return humans to the Moon and extend human presence permanently beyond the bounds of Earth.
We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required!
