Manufacturing Engineer II - Rocket Engine Combustion Devices (B Shift) - Huntsville Alabama
Company: Blue Origin Location: Huntsville, Alabama
Posted On: 04/26/2024
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 diverse team of collaborators, doers, and problem-solvers who are relentlessly committed to a culture of safety. This position will directly impact the history of space exploration and will require your commitment and detailed attention towards safe and repeatable space flight. 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 diverse and hardworking team of experts, you will be responsible for developing new fabrication processes for rocket engine injectors, pre-burners, and combustion devices. As a Combustion Devices Manufacturing Engineer, you will translate engineering intent, drawings, and configurations into fully functional hardware ready for test, qualification, and flight. Throughout the manufacturing process, you will also identify, develop, and deploy methods to improve fabrication quality, reduce cost, and optimize build sequence and schedules. As an integral member of the team, you will conduct DFMA and PFMEA studies to strengthen the feedback loop between design, build, and test and accelerate the pace of rocket engine development. This position will directly impact the history of space exploration and will require your dedicated commitment and detailed attention towards safe and repeatable human spaceflight.Responsibilities: - Identify, define, develop, implement, and optimize new or existing combustion manufacturing processes (fabrication, inspection, cleaning, assembly, integration, and test)
- Conduct fabrication DFMA and PFMEA studies to strengthen the feedback loop between design, build, and test
- Provide data to drive decisions from DFM and PFMEA studies as well as historical actuals
- Translate engineering intent, drawings, and configurations into fully functional hardware
- Drive inputs to the selection of material and design
- Define how to prepare hardware for manufacturing, test, qualification, and flight
- Identify, develop, and deploy new fabrication manufacturing methods (or refine existing) to improve quality, reduce cost, and optimize build schedule
- Develop combustion fabrication manufacturing work instructions to clearly define the following manufacturing process: receiving inspection, fabrication, assembly, test, integration, and refurbishment
- Closely manage cost, quality, build sequence, and schedule of hardware throughout the entire manufacturing process
- Perform engineering drawing review and provide final approval for manufacturing
- Develop fabrication process control measures and evaluation through statistical analysis
- Define and support fabrication repair and rework activities
- Design, procure, install, and integrate custom manufacturing equipment
- Interface with external suppliers and manufacturing partners to ensure that hardware and equipment is manufactured, processed, packaged, and delivered properly, on time, and on budget
- Perform capacity analysis and evaluate staffing requirements
- Perform root cause analyses when non-conformances and escapes are identified and deploy corrective actions
- Manage hardware configuration and maintain pedigree throughout the entire build and test processDesired:
