Descripción de la vacante

Blue Origin is seeking an engineering analyst to perform structural, thermal, and fluids analyses for tooling and lander hardware. You will partner with design and manufacturing to validate tooling, assess non-conformances, and steer toward lighter, safer designs.

You will produce clear analysis reports, support CAD trades, and help develop advanced analysis methods across disciplines, contributing to a culture of safety and collaboration.

Formación

• BS in Mechanical/Manufacturing/Aerospace Engineering from an accredited university.
• Understanding of materials, thermodynamics, kinematics and manufacturing processes.
• Proficiency with an FEA package (e.g., Ansys, Abaqus, Nastran/Femap) and strong hand‑calc skills.
• Thermal and fluids fundamentals: conduction, convection, radiation and pipe flow.
• Ability to write a clear, defensible analysis report.

Responsabilidades

• Structural and mechanical analysis: hand calcs and FEA for strength, stiffness, fatigue, and margins on tooling and lander hardware.
• Design and verify lifting/handling fixtures to ASME BTH-1 / B30.20; define proof tests.
• Thermal analysis: steady-state and transient models for hardware installs and fixtures.
• Fluids and ECLSS analysis: pressure drop and flow; support hardware/test rigs.
• Define load cases and safety factors; communicate results clearly.
• Prepare analysis reports; peer review colleagues' work; correlate models to test data.
• Influence design early by CAD collaboration and quick trades for lighter, safer designs.
• Provide non-conformance disposition support and develop repair analyses.
• Develop state-of-the-art analysis techniques in emerging fields.
