Job summary

Blue Origin LLC is seeking a Systems Engineer to own requirements decomposition, verification, and safety for a cross-cutting area of the lunar system.

The ideal candidate has 5–8 years in systems engineering, experience with ICDs/IRDs, and proficiency in Jama, DOORS, Cameo, and Windchill. U.S.

Qualifications

• B.S. in aerospace, systems, or a related engineering field; an advanced degree may substitute for a portion of the experience requirement
• 5–8 years of experience solving systems-level engineering problems, with demonstrated work in requirements, verification, or system safety
• Demonstrated ownership of a complex, cross-cutting technical area with minimal oversight
• Working knowledge of interface management (ICDs/IRDs), requirements traceability and verification, and variance/deviation processes
• Ability to set a technical plan for a scope and drive it to closure across design IPTs without direct authority
• Proficiency with SE tooling (Jama, DOORS, Cameo, Windchill) and a track record of working in tool-driven workflows
• Must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.

Responsibilities

• Own requirements decomposition, allocation, and traceability for a complex, cross-cutting area of the system with minimal oversight
• Own the verification approach and its closure for your area — verification requirements, methods, procedures, and the evidence that requirements are met
• Leverage system safety work for your scope to drive real change in the system and disposition variances/deviations against a clear, risk-based standard
• Perform root-cause analysis and corrective action on major-scope technical issues
• Serve as the systems-engineering point of contact for your area to design IPTs, and represent it at engineering and program reviews
• Drive tool and process improvements — remove manual steps from the requirements and V&V workflow and raise the team's standard for how the work gets done
