Fluid Systems Engineer II — Spaceflight Systems

Blue Origin; Denver (CO); On-site; USD 91,000 - 127,000; Full time

Job summary

Blue Origin is seeking an engineer to design fluid system hardware for the New Glenn program. You will develop fluid components, subsystems and documentation, while collaborating with cross-functional teams to meet performance and schedule targets.

You will perform FEA and fluid modeling, create CAD/ P&ID artifacts, and work with manufacturing to ensure quality and manufacturability of flight hardware. A strong background in propulsion fluids and aerospace experience is required.

Qualifications

• B.S. degree in Mechanical, Aerospace, or related field.
• 2+ years in aerospace propulsion or fluid systems.
• Experience with 3D CAD programs (Creo preferred).
• Experience with FEA tools (ANSYS preferred).
• Experience with REFPROP, SINDA/FLUINT and Thermal Desktop or similar.
• Experience with analysis/calculations of flow through components or systems.
• Must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (Green Card) or asylum status.

Responsibilities

• Design fluid component hardware to meet cost, performance, and schedule constraints with guidance from senior engineers.
• Design and route fluid subsystems (pressurization, pneumatics, coolant, propellant utilization).
• Work with fluid components (solenoid valves, valves, regulators, vessels, instrumentation).
• Perform FEA and fluid system modeling and analysis.
• Create CAD models, P&ID, part drawings, assemblies, interfaces, and documentation.
