Safety and Reliability Subsystem Lead

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!
This role is part of the Lunar Permanence business unit, which develops Blue Origin's multiple Blue Moon lander product lines. To further Blue Origin's mission of having millions of people living and working in space, we are building sustainable infrastructure for our transport of crew and cargo from Earth to the lunar surface.
As part of a diverse and hardworking team of specialists, engineers, and designers, you will support systems engineering for crew and life support systems. As the crew and life support systems

Safety and Reliability Systems Engineer

you will be expected to lead and support various roles including Functional decomposition, and studies to ensure optimization of the design, requirements management and decomposition, integration, verification and validation. Your attention to detail will be used for managing requirements development, documenting interfaces between elements and disciplines and drive design maturation.
Additionally, this role requires understanding and supporting requirements analysis and traceability, functional analysis, systems analysis, safety analysis, technical performance monitoring, developing strategies and approaches for specialty engineering (operability, reliability, maintainability, supportability) and system product life cycle processes. You will also support the alignment and consistent implementation of SLD Vehicle system engineering practices for system to lower-level program tiers as well as across program systems. You will also help develop health metrics to support insight into program health and tracking to major objectives. You will also participate in gated reviews. You should be able to understand and document system behaviors with architecture. You will play a key role in developing Blue Moon Lunar Lander (Link: ) that will return humans to the Moon and extend human presence permanently beyond the bounds of Earth.
We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required!
