Blue Origin; Washington; Vor Ort; USD 120.000 - 160.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Blue Origin seeks an experienced Pumps Manufacturing Engineer to industrialize pump designs from development to production readiness at our Seattle site.

You will develop detailed work instructions, process flows, tooling specs, and inspection plans, ensuring manufacturing feasibility, cost, and quality. The role involves collaboration with design engineering, quality, and supply chain, and requires second-shift availability.

Qualifikationen

• Bachelor-level engineering degree required.
• 8+ years of experience in manufacturing or process engineering, preferably with rotating equipment or fluid systems.
• 5+ years of experience creating detailed work instructions and manufacturing documentation.
• Experience with precision manufacturing processes (machining, assembly, testing).
• U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (Green Card) or eligible immigrant status.
• Ability to work second shift and flexibility to move shifts; extended hours as needed.

Aufgaben

• Lead industrialization of pump designs from development through production readiness, creating manufacturing processes for pump components, assemblies, and testing procedures.
• Develop detailed work instructions, process flows, tooling specifications, and inspection plans for pump fabrication and assembly operations.
• Collaborate with design engineering to optimize pump designs for manufacturing feasibility, cost, and quality during design reviews (PDR, CDR, PRR).
• Provide technical troubleshooting and process optimization support to production teams, including root cause analysis and corrective action implementation for pump manufacturing issues.
• Design and specify manufacturing tooling, fixtures, and assembly equipment for pump production operations.
• Conduct process FMEAs, risk assessments, and validation activities for new pump manufacturing lines and equipment.
• Identify and implement opportunities for cost reduction, efficiency gains, and quality enhancements in pump manufacturing processes.
• Evaluate and deploy new manufacturing technologies (precision machining, additive manufacturing, automated assembly) for pump production applications.
• Ensure all pump manufacturing processes meet aerospace quality standards (AS9100) and Blue Origin requirements.
• Work closely with design engineering, quality, supply chain, and production teams to support pump production schedules and resolve manufacturing challenges.
