Job summary

Blue Origin seeks an MK1 Vehicle Thermal and Fluids Integrator within the Vehicle Systems Engineering team on Merritt Island, FL. You will own the integrated thermal and fluid systems requirements, interfaces, and test scope across design to verification, ensuring margins and mission success.

You will define ICDs, manage the leak budget, and lead design parameter decisions, test scope, and anomaly investigations for flight hardware.

Qualifications

• B.S. degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related field.
• 5+ years of systems engineering experience with a focus on thermal and fluid systems for spacecraft.
• Strong understanding of integrated thermal and fluid spacecraft systems including active and passive thermal control systems.

Responsibilities

• Own and maintain integrated vehicle-level thermal and fluid system requirements and lead their verification and validation.
• Define and manage integrated thermal and fluid interface control documents (ICD) across vehicle subsystems.
• Own and maintain the vehicle leak budget, ensuring all contributions are tracked, dispositioned, and within acceptable limits.
• Serve as the vehicle level component temperature limits owner, ensuring all hardware operates within defined thermal margins across all mission phases.
• Define proof and leak test scope and success criteria for pressurized fluid systems across the vehicle.
• Own or support vehicle test scope for integrated vehicle tests involving thermal and fluid systems, including thermal vacuum testing and tanking tests.
• Define test objectives and success criteria in test matrices, traced to requirements and budgets.
• Review test procedures involving pressurized cryogenic and non-cryogenic fluid systems and support test execution.
• Review and interpret test data to assess performance and health at system and component level.
