Job description

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 Blue Origin corporate functions, providing centralized support across Blue Origin business unit teams, functions, and locations.

We are a diverse team of collaborators, doers, and problem-solvers who are relentlessly committed to the pursuit of safe and repeatable spaceflight. As part of a hardworking team of diverse specialists, technicians, engineers, and program managers, you will support the development of our space vehicles and help enable Blue Origin's vision of millions of people living and working in space to benefit Earth.

The New Glenn Finance team is a high-performance group, and we are looking for a Financial Analyst II with strong analytical depth to support planning, forecasting, and decision support. You will turn operational and financial data into clear insights, identify the drivers behind performance, and help leaders understand what is changing, why it matters, and what action to take.

You are a hands-on problem solver who is comfortable working from source data through the final leadership narrative. You build transparent models, reconcile discrepancies, test assumptions, and create repeatable analyses rather than one-time answers. You use Excel, SQL, BI tools, and controlled AI workflows to extend your reach while maintaining the accuracy expected in a financial environment.

Passion for our mission and vision is required. Ability to work full-time on-site is required, and relocation assistance will be provided.
