Lead New Glenn range safety compliance activities for ground operations, maintaining regulatory compliance products and coordinating with US Space Force partners. Plan and deliver complex technical products across multiple subject areas, communicate results, manage resources, and support large-scale aerospace program operations. The role requires working knowledge of SSCMAN 91-710, strong product ownership, project management skills, and effective cross-functional collaboration.

Lead mission systems engineering for Blue Origin’s Blue Ring and Mars Telecommunications Network. Define and maintain requirements, verification and validation plans, interfaces, and ground and mission operations architectures. Collaborate across spacecraft, software, operations, and payload teams; conduct integration, testing, performance analysis, and mission readiness activities. Ensure compliance with NASA and CCSDS standards while supporting deep-space, delay-tolerant operations and lifecycle development from requirements through deployment and operations.

Develop and own digital, analog, and mixed-signal avionics circuit boards across the full product lifecycle, including requirements, design, simulation, schematic capture, layout, prototyping, testing, verification, and production release. Support avionics architecture studies, component selection, risk and failure analyses, reliability assessments, troubleshooting, and root-cause investigations. Contribute to safety, mission assurance, technology development, and process improvements while communicating technical status and risks. The role involves hands-on collaboration and approximately 10% travel.

Design, develop, test, and integrate distributed software for global ground station operations. Build APIs, dashboards, workflow automation, monitoring, and secure interfaces for telemetry, tracking, command, and payload data systems. Conduct post-mission analytics, integrate third-party stations and customer systems, and collaborate with software, networking, and RF/DSP engineering teams to deliver reliable mission-critical infrastructure.

Conduct thermal and fluids analysis for Blue Origin’s MK1 lunar lander throughout design, build, test, and integration. Develop and validate thermo-fluid models using component and vehicle test data, perform system-level trade studies, analyze results, document findings in Windchill, and present recommendations to engineering and business stakeholders. The role focuses on cryogenic, gaseous, two-phase, propulsion, and spacecraft fluid systems.

Designs and develops fluid and propulsion system hardware for Blue Origin’s lunar lander, including cryogenic tubing, fittings, mounts, valves, heaters, and instrumentation. Owns CAD models and engineering artifacts throughout the product lifecycle, leads design-for-manufacturability activities, coordinates suppliers and manufacturing, performs structural and FEA analysis, interprets P&IDs, and supports fabrication, assembly, verification, testing, and operations.

Lead technical project management for RF component development supporting Blue Origin lunar vehicles. Manage technical, cost, schedule, risk, procurement, supplier coordination, product roadmaps, program reviews, and operating metrics. Partner with engineering teams, leadership, NASA, external customers, vendors, and suppliers to deliver qualified flight hardware. Support Agile planning, earned-value and baseline management, and continuous process improvement across RF Systems integrated product teams.

Leads the technical baseline and lifecycle development of reusable embedded motor controllers for lunar spacecraft mechanisms. Responsibilities include defining architectures and interfaces, developing fault-tolerant control strategies, coordinating cross-functional teams, performing hardware bring-up and troubleshooting, reviewing electronics designs, and planning verification, qualification, environmental, and acceptance testing. The role requires hands-on control systems expertise across hardware, firmware, sensors, actuators, and avionics interfaces, along with technical leadership in safety-critical aerospace environments.
