The Senior Payload Systems Engineer manages payload integration, supporting customer requirements and system engineering processes for space vehicles. Responsibilities include system verification, technical advocacy, and oversight of integration activities.

The Senior Embedded Software Engineer will design and verify embedded software for avionics in Lunar vehicles, collaborate with hardware engineers, and utilize advanced tools for debugging and performance analysis.

Perform fluids and thermal analyses for lunar vehicle pumps using CFD and hand calculations; provide design recommendations, run secondary flow and thermal models, support test programs, and guide pump development from CAD to flight-qualified hardware. Lead a small fluids-analysis team and optimize pump designs for efficiency, reliability, manufacturability, mass, and leakage.

Design and lead spacecraft data and data-handling architectures for Blue Ring satellites. Develop and manage Command & Telemetry and Parameter databases, onboard storage and file management, data uplink/downlink, sequencing, and prioritization. Collaborate with flight software, systems, test, and operations teams to implement, automate, and verify scalable data solutions across a vehicle fleet.

The Principal Fluids Engineer will design and analyze fluid systems for the New Glenn launch vehicle, develop computational fluid dynamics models, and oversee junior engineers' work.

Develop and communicate structural loads and environments for spacecraft and payloads. Create and correlate finite element and Craig-Bampton models, perform vibroacoustic and dynamic analyses, support test measurement and interpretation, maintain loads data books, and collaborate across disciplines to verify designs and perform trade studies.

Analyze primary and secondary spacecraft structures for Blue Moon lunar landers, including load paths, static and dynamic strength, finite element models, loads and dynamics integration, test correlation, verification plans, and trade studies. The role supports structural design from concept through hardware release while ensuring safety, reliability, cost, and schedule objectives for human spaceflight programs.

Designs permanent magnet AC/DC motors, BLDCs, solenoids, resolvers, LVDTs, RVDTs, and related electromagnetic systems. Performs FEA simulations, optimization, material selection, electrical and mechanical design, documentation, prototyping, testing, troubleshooting, reliability analysis, and root-cause investigations. Collaborates with mechanical, manufacturing, quality, controls, program management, and customers throughout product development and production transition for high-reliability aerospace and motion-control applications.

Lead and manage a team of flight software engineers for Blue Origin's lunar landers, ensuring safety-critical, high-performance embedded flight software. Coordinate with subsystem stakeholders, NASA, and partners; guide technical decisions, mentor engineers, and report to the Flight Software Integrated Product Lead. Ensure delivery commitments are realistic and aligned with stakeholder needs to support human lunar transportation and sustained operations.

Perform orbit determination using radiometric, Doppler, and GPS data; develop and maintain navigation software; support mission operations and trajectory design across GEO, cislunar, and interplanetary missions; build and validate force and measurement models; document results and contribute in an Agile development environment.
