About the Job

Requirements

  • A Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field is required.
  • At least 5 years of experience in an industrial or manufacturing engineering role is required.
  • Demonstrated experience with factory layout design is required.
  • A strong practical understanding of Lean Manufacturing principles and experience implementing them are required.
  • Proficiency in process modeling and data analysis, including use of Excel, is required.
  • The candidate must be able to create and present data-driven business cases.
  • Applicants must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident, or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.

Responsibilities

  • Design, model, and implement factory layouts for assembly lines, integration cells, and test areas, prioritizing safety, ergonomics, and reduced wasted movement and transportation.
  • Analyze and define the end-to-end flow of material and information; create current- and future-state value stream maps to identify and eliminate bottlenecks, reduce lead times, and optimize process sequencing.
  • Develop and maintain capacity models to determine production-rate capabilities, identify equipment, labor, and floorspace constraints, and inform capital equipment and workforce planning.
  • Serve as the primary industrial engineering liaison between design engineering and production system teams; assist with Design for Manufacturability and Assembly analysis, and develop manufacturing plans, work instructions, and tooling and fixture requirements to transition designs to full-rate production.
  • Lead lean manufacturing initiatives, including Kaizen events, 5S, standard work, and material presentation strategies, to improve quality, cost, and delivery.
  • Establish, track, and report key performance indicators, including cycle time, takt time, first-pass yield, and labor hours per unit, to inform decisions.

Desired Qualifications

  • A master's degree in a relevant engineering or business field is preferred.
  • Experience in a low-mix, high-volume production system is preferred.
  • Experience with discrete-event simulation software such as FlexSim, Arena, or Simio is preferred.
  • Experience with Manufacturing Execution Systems and Enterprise Resource Planning systems is preferred.
  • Lean Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt certification is preferred.
  • Experience using 2D or 3D computer-aided design tools such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or Catia is preferred.

About the Company

Blue Origin

Builds rockets, engines and lunar spacecraft

Blue Origin builds rockets, engines and spacecraft for commercial satellite operators and government space programs. Its New Glenn orbital rocket uses a reusable first stage, while Blue Moon landers are designed to transport cargo and astronauts to the lunar surface. The company designs and manufactures liquid-fueled propulsion systems, and its New Shepard vehicle is built for short suborbital trips carrying people and research payloads. Customers pay for launch services and engines, and government development contracts fund work on systems for exploration beyond Earth orbit. Founded by Jeff Bezos in 2000, Blue Origin is headquartered in Kent, Washington.
