Strong fit if you are a hands-on manufacturing engineer with aerospace or heavy weld fabrication experience and want multi-shift, on-site tank production for Blue Origin’s lunar hardware—not remote office R&D.
As a Manufacturing Engineer (II–Sr) for Lunar tank welding, expect to own weld process development and production readiness for tank structures: define WPS/parameters, support fixtures and NDE flow, troubleshoot first-article and rate builds across multiple shifts, and close nonconformances with quality and technicians so flight hardware meets Blue Origin lunar program standards.
Prioritize: weld process engineering (GTAW/GMAW or equivalent for tanks), blueprint/GD&T, MRB/nonconformance, lean/production systems, and working with multi-shift ops. No certification resources were provided in the data set.
No—the listing is on-site in the U.S. (remote flag is off); confirm exact facility and shift.
Manufacturing engineering support for weld processes and production of tank structures tied to Blue Origin’s lunar (e.g. Blue Moon/Artemis-related) hardware.
The posting spans Manufacturing Engineer II, III, and Senior across multiple shifts; level depends on experience depth in manufacturing/weld process ownership.
