Campus Pride Jobs

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 a part of Test & Flight Operations team, providing centralized support to Business Units with the focus on design, build and maintenance of the ground systems, test and launch facilities across multiple locations As part of a small, hardworking, and accomplished team, you will lead Mission Operations Infrastructure development for the Mission Operations Systems team on Blue Origin's Lunar Permanence program. You will be responsible for conceiving, developing, testing, and deploying innovative and modern ground systems that enable Earth-based operators to perform mission-critical functions in support of Blue Moon missions. These include Mission Control workstations, voice systems, and display systems; datacenters for highly reliable computational and storage resources; space-to-ground communications systems; fault-tolerant, high-capacity networks connecting mission nodes; and data interfaces and data transport between Blue Origin, customers, and partners. You will work in a fast-paced dynamic environment, contributing innovative solutions, while demonstrating personal leadership, technical competence, and attention to detail. This position will directly impact the history of space exploration and will require your dedicated commitment and detailed attention toward safe and reliable spaceflight. We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and dedication to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required! Responsibilities: Specify, design, implement, test, verify, and deploy flight operations, and safety-critical systems, ensuring the success of the overall Mission Operations Systems (hardware/software) supporting lunar mission operations. Perform trade studies to determine the architecture and capabilities of mission systems to best meet mission operations requirements, cost, and schedule Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, including engineers representing flight vehicle systems, ground software, flight control operators, and customers to define ground system and data communications requirements, architectures, and designs that enable highly effective and labor-efficient real-time spacecraft and ground system operation, systems performance assessment and inter-team communication and coordination Develop rapid prototypes to prove concepts and quantify technical risks Integrate components, create and run unit tests, validate Software-in-the-Loop and Hardware-in-the-Loop simulators, and certify systems for training and flight Coordinate with flight control software and mission system engineers to plan, develop, and lead system verification and qualification, to ensure that mission systems products meet system requirements and safety-critical standards. Lead the effort to integrate Blue Origin facilities, ground systems, and ground-space communications networks as the foundation for Blue Origin lunar missions Formulate, develop, and maintain ground-to-ground interface control documents (ICDs); contribute to space-to-ground ICDs; and define and perform verification and validation events for these interfaces. Produce technical documentation for ground data system architecture, design, verification plans, user manual, and training material. Follow development processes that meet Blue Origin and customer-required standards to ensure mission systems safety and reliability. Support frequent update cycles for pre-flight testing, mission validation exercises, and operations training events. Support mission control infrastructure op
