At Blue Origin, we envision millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth. We're working to develop reusable, safe, and low-cost space vehicles and systems within a culture of safety, collaboration, and inclusion. Join our diverse team of problem solvers as we add new chapters to the history of spaceflight!We are a team with wide-ranging skillsets that value safety, problem-solving and diversity. This position will directly impact the history of space exploration and will require your commitment and detailed attention towards safe and repeatable lunar habitation and infrastructure development, and exploration. Join us in lowering the cost of access to space and enabling Blue Origin's vision of millions of people living and working in space to benefit Earth.As part of a passionate and hardworking team, you will contribute to the design, build, and test of radioisotope power and heat source systems in support of lunar and space exploration and infrastructure development. You will be the Responsible Engineer for Blue's integration of Stirling engines and help lead Blue's development of future Stirling engines and related systems.We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact this and future development programs.Responsibilities:Plan, manage, and conduct all activities related to the integration of Stirling engines for externally contracted efforts.Coordinate with external Stirling engine suppliers to optimize the integration and test of their engine into radio-isotope power systems (RPS)Partner with the controller and avionics lead in the development and test of the Stirling control systemModel or support modeling of these RPS systems and their thermodynamic and structural propertiesSupport other RPS subsystems with interfaces and feedbackSupport the formulation manager and the program technical leader to identify and track program and technical risk, develop and maintain schedule, resource allocation, and budget for your responsibilitiesWork with the broader team to plan and manage Core Formulation Sprint support to the RPS programs as neededWork with the Director of Space Nuclear Power and Propulsion to formulate future Blue Origin Stirling engine development effortsQualifications:B.S. degree in aerospace or mechanical engineering10+ years of experience with Stirling energy conversion and/or space systems including conceptual design, design, build, and testExperience in Stirling engines and similar systemsDemonstrated effective communication skills with program and executive leadership.Demonstrated experience in Stirling engines including conceptualization, design iteration, requirements derivation and verification, build and testDemonstrated experience in thermodynamic modeling and analysis and mechanical system design, analysis, build, and testDemonstrated experience in engineering management and task planning,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.Desired:M.S. or PhD in aerospace or mechanical engineering15+ years of experience with Stirling space systems including conceptual design, design, build, and testExperience in radioisotope power systemsUnderstanding of spacecraft system and subsystem functions, and their interfacesExperience with Agile development processes and MS ProjectInclusivity StatementDon't meet all desired requirements?
