- # Design Engineer II, Structural/Mechanical GSEApplylocations: Greater Seattle Areatime type: Full timeposted on: Posted Todayjob requisition id: R67677Application close date:Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis until the requisition is closed.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 team of problem solvers as we add new chapters to the history of spaceflight! This role is part of the Blue Origin Engines business unit, where our focus is the design, development, manufacturing, and testing of engines and propulsion systems. Built for multiple uses, our family of engines is powering the next generation of rockets for commercial, civil, national security, and human spaceflight.As a member of a small, high-performing structural design team within Engines Advanced Programs, you'll join a group of problem solvers who own the entire development process from concept to commissioning. You will design, analyze, build, and commission critical equipment that enables operations, working directly with end users to understand their needs and deliver robust technical solutions.Our team is the backbone of operational infrastructure for our program. We design essential support hardware including test stands, towers, lift fixtures, pipe supports, specialized assembly tooling, transporters, maintenance platforms, and dolly systems. We routinely design and analyze steel and aluminum structures, and we deliver mechanical systems that may include hydraulic, pneumatic, or other energized subsystems.You will work the entire design cycle with some oversight — from project requirements through detailed design, structural analysis, drawing release, fabrication support, and field commissioning. You'll partner directly with engineers across multiple disciplines, technicians, and fabricators to understand needs and constraints before crafting solutions that balance safety, functionality, and manufacturability. The role demands solid hand analysis and FEA, intermediate drawing and modeling proficiency, and the ability to present technical rationale and design trade-offs to senior engineers for review and feedback.We are looking for a developing structural engineer with foundational design and analysis experience, drawing and modeling proficiency, and a genuine doer mindset — someone eager to put boots on the ground, stand behind their designs, and ensure successful implementation. If you enjoy seeing your ideas transform from CAD models to field-ready hardware, this position offers the right blend of design ownership and hands-on engineering.**Special Mentions*** Relocation provided* Travel expected up to 20% of the time* Interviews will include a technical assessment**Responsibilities include but are not limited to:*** Execute clearly-scoped design assignments end-to-end with some oversight from senior engineers* Develop 3D CAD models and 2D drawing packages to industry standards (ASME Y14.5) for components and assemblies* Perform structural and mechanical analysis using FEA software and hand calculations; document load cases, factors of safety, and margins* Contribute to system safety analyses such as Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA), Hazard and Operability Studies (HAZOP), Job Hazard Analysis (JHA), and similar* Support definition of hardware test scope and configurations, including non-destructive evaluation, proof testing, operational testing, and weld inspection* Support activation and commissioning planning; participate in field installation and commissioning activities* Coordinate with vendors and manufacturing teams during fabrication; escalate technical issues to senior engineers when appropriate* Present design work in technical reviews and incorporate feedback from senior engineers and stakeholders* Support identification and communication of project technical, cost, and schedule risks* Travel to support hardware installation, commissioning, and troubleshooting at internal facilities and external vendors**Minimum Qualifications*** B.S. degree in mechanical, civil, or aerospace engineering or related discipline from an accredited institution* 2-4 years of experience designing or analyzing structural/mechanical systems, tooling, or industrial equipment* Demonstrated ability to execute scoped design assignments end-to-end with some oversight* Working proficiency with CAD and FEA software (Creo and ANSYS preferred)* Intermediate drawing and modeling proficiency, including detail and assembly drawings with GD&T (ASME Y14.5)* Experience designing and analyzing steel or aluminum welded structures* Awareness of industry codes and standards for structural equipment and tooling (e.g., ASME B30.20/BTH-1, OSHA, AISC-360, ASCE-7, Aluminum Design Manual)* Practical knowledge of manufacturing processes (milling, turning, cutting, welding) and ability to design for fabrication* Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present technical work clearly* Willingness to travel up to 20% to support hardware installation, commissioning, and field activities* Must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.**Preferred Qualifications*** M.S. degree in mechanical, civil, or aerospace engineering* Internship, co-op, or full-time experience designing structural equipment or tooling for aerospace, propulsion, or other heavy industrial applications* Hands-on experience constructing or repairing mechanical components and systems, acquired through personal pursuits or professional experience* Hands-on experience designing and building welded steel or aluminum structures* Exposure to hydraulic or pneumatic mechanical systems* Exposure to ASME B31.3 for Process Piping* Hands-on experience operating manufacturing equipment (machining, welding, fabrication)* Proficiency in tolerance stack-up analysis* Experience with PDM/PLM version control systems### Base Pay Range for:WA applicants is $99,201.00 - $138,880.35**Other site ranges may differ****Culture Statement**Don’t meet all desired requirements?
