Industrial Engineer - New Glenn Manufacturing
At Blue Origin, we're not just building rockets - we're shaping the future of space exploration. Our New Glenn launch vehicle is poised to revolutionize access to space, and we need your expertise to make it happen.
Why we need you
As an Industrial Engineer for New Glenn Manufacturing, you are the key to transforming our visionary designs into a robust, efficient production reality.
Your insights and innovations will directly impact the history of space exploration, ensuring we can reliably and repeatedly send humans and payloads beyond Earth's atmosphere.
Without your expertise in lean manufacturing, process optimization, and production systems design, we risk inefficiencies that could delay our mission to make space accessible for millions.
Your ability to streamline our manufacturing processes is crucial to lowering the cost of spaceflight and bringing Blue Origin's vision to life.
Here's what you'll be doing
You'll be at the forefront of space manufacturing, applying cutting-edge industrial engineering principles to one of the most exciting projects in human history.
Your day-to-day will involve :
- Leading manufacturing improvement projects, from ergonomics to capacity planning
- Conducting time-motion studies and data analysis to optimize our production processes
- Designing and implementing lean manufacturing techniques across our New Glenn production line
- Collaborating with a diverse team of engineers and operators to solve complex manufacturing challenges
- Creating and maintaining production standards that ensure the safety and quality of our spacecraft
You need these qualifications
- You have a BS in Industrial, Manufacturing, or Mechanical Engineering
- You bring 4+ years of hands-on experience in manufacturing environments
- You're an expert in factory flow modeling and process simulations
- You've successfully led continuous improvement and value stream mapping initiatives
- You have a proven track record of data-driven decision making and analytics
- You're authorized to work in the US for any employer
It would be nice if
- You have experience in aerospace or manned spaceflight production
- You hold certifications such as Six Sigma Black Belt or PMP
- You've been involved in transitioning products from development to full-scale production
- You have a passion for space exploration and Blue Origin's mission
This role is based at our manufacturing facility, working Monday - Friday from 8am - 5pm ET. Join us in making history as an Industrial Engineer for New Glenn Manufacturing!
