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! Come innovate at Blue!Blue Origin is a rapidly expanding company with a singular focus on fulfilling our vision of millions of people living and working in space.
The company celebrates strong collaboration, outstanding and innovative solutions, and passion for success.
Blue Origin is searching for open-minded, high-judgement, enthusiastic candidates looking to join our diverse, team-based environment.
Blue Origin's Engineering & Program Management Flight Sciences group is looking for a talented Aerodynamics Engineer, entry to mid-level, to support the New Shepard, New Glenn, Space Systems Development, Engines, and Lunar Transport Programs.
As part of a diverse and hardworking team of specialists, you will be supporting aspects of aerodynamic and aerothermodynamic design across all flight regimes for current and future spaceflight systems.
This position will require your dedication and detailed attention towards safe and repeatable spaceflight and will directly craft the future of space exploration!
Responsibilities:
Responsibilities for this role will include supporting the development of airframe and Outer Mold Line (OML) design and configuration, developing tools and tool chains to automated CFD and Wind Tunnel test analyses, developing ascent and descent aerodynamic/aero-thermal databases.
This role will require performing both internal and external fluid CFD analyses to include multi-phase, and multi-species.
This team member will also support/Conduct subsonic-to-hypersonic CFD analyses and Wind Tunnel testing, perform DSMC analyses on space vehicles/platforms, and conduct aerodynamic analyses from 1st order principles to high fidelity CFD.
Finally they will be involved in all aspects of the entire program lifecycle:
from early conceptual design and configuration through flight operations and sustaining engineering.
