Student Veterans of America Jobs

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 Blue Origin Operations, which is comprised of Integrated Supply Chain, Facilities, and Security. This includes Manufacturing and Supply Chain support across all Blue Origin facilities. As part of a small, passionate, and accomplished team of experts, you will be responsible for thrust chamber fabrication processes for rocket engines. As a Thrust Chamber Fabrication Manufacturing Engineer, you will translate engineering intent, drawings, and configurations into fully functional hardware ready for test, qualification, and flight. Throughout the manufacturing process, you will also identify, develop, and deploy methods to improve fabrication quality, reduce cost, and optimize build sequence and schedules. As an integral member of the team, you will conduct DFMA and PFMEA studies to strengthen the feedback loop between design, build, and test in order to accelerate the pace of rocket engine development. We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and dedication to quality to positively impact safe spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required! Special Mentions: Relocation provided Travel expected up to 20% of the time Shift available: Day shift Monday- Friday Responsibilities include but are not limited to: Identify, define, develop, implement, and optimize new or existing thrust chamber manufacturing processes (fabrication, inspection, cleaning, assembly, integration, and test) Conduct fabrication DFMA and PFMEA studies to strengthen the feedback loop between design, build, and test Provide data to drive decisions from DFM and PFMEA studies as well as historical actuals Translate engineering intent, drawings, and configurations into fully functional hardware Drive inputs to the selection of material and design Define how to prepare hardware for manufacturing, test, qualification, and flight Identify, develop, and deploy new fabrication manufacturing methods (or refine existing) to improve quality, reduce cost, and optimize build schedule Develop thrust chamber fabrication manufacturing work instructions to clearly define the following manufacturing process: receiving inspection, fabrication, assembly, test, integration, and refurbishment Closely manage cost, quality, build sequence, and schedule of hardware throughout the entire manufacturing process Perform engineering drawing review and provide final approval for manufacturing Develop fabrication process control measures and evaluation through statistical analysis Define and support fabrication repair and rework activities Design, procure, install, and integrate custom manufacturing equipment Connect with external suppliers and manufacturing partners to ensure that hardware and equipment is manufactured, processed, packaged, and delivered accurately, on time, and on budget Perform capacity analysis and evaluate staffing requirements Perform root cause analyses when non-conformances and escapes are identified and deploy corrective actions Manage hardware configuration and maintain pedigree throughout the entire build and test process Minimum Qualifications: Passion for our mission: Millions of people living and working in space! Bachelor of Science in Mechanical, Manufacturing, or Aerospace Engineering (other relevant fields may apply) from an accredited university 3+ years of experience with thrust chamber fabrication, combustion device fabrication, manufacturing, or manufacturing engineering Expert in engineering fundamentals for mechanical design an
