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 New Shepard, a reusable suborbital rocket system designed to take astronauts and research payloads past the Karman line, the internationally recognized boundary of space. Through operational reusability, New Shepard supports our mission of lowering the cost of access to space. 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 dedication and detailed attention towards safe and repeatable space flight! As a launch vehicle engineer, you will support the refurbishment cycles of the fielded flight vehicles by creating and implementing design changes, identifying and dispositioning non-conformances, supporting preflight integrated vehicle testing, and leading all aspects of preventative vehicle maintenance in the Structures subsystem lifecycle. You will support the vehicle managers in performing risk assessment before rollout of the vehicles for launch. You will also support flight operations through ops product development and as Engineering Back Room support in mission control. Following a New Shepard mission, you immediately begin getting the vehicles ready for launch again, reviewing inspection results and working with members of the maintenance team to implement repairs and upgrades to get the vehicle ready for another safe flight by diagnosing discrepancies and identify corrective actions. You will perform post-flight data reviews and tracking of all resulting anomalies. This role will coordinate with engineers and managers in Kent, WA as you work closely with engineers and technicians at Launch Site One in Van Horn, TX. These efforts will be met with challenges to increase launch cadence and reduce cost, while maintaining high engineering and safety standards. In order to accomplish the task of enabling safe and repeatable space flight, you will have to learn and understand the vehicle systems as well as the requirements that govern our standards and practices. You will collaborate across team interfaces to understand and overcome logistics, supply chain, and resource challenges to deliver mission-ready vehicles. You will implement that knowledge to write safe and executable work instructions and revise procedures to enable more efficiencies and expand capabilities. Every day, our team draws upon a wide breadth of engineering skills, along with a team of highly experienced technicians to improve our processes and the refurbishment workflow. This is a job that requires you to be a hands-on, highly collaborative and energetic individual who always welcomes a challenge. You are motivated to do or learn whatever is required to get the job done while maintaining the high standards required for safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required! This position is located in Van Horn, TX or Kent, WA - working either a rotational schedule (16 day-on and 12 day-off rotation) or regular M-F. Being at the heart of New Shepard operations, the West Texas Site offers eligible employees additional attractive financial incentives to supplement their competitive base earnings, including a living allowance and relocation assistance
