Application 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 TeraWave, a satellite communications network designed to deliver symmetrical data speeds of up to 6 Tbps anywhere on Earth. This network will service tens of thousands of enterprise, data center, and government users who require reliable connectivity for critical operations. The TeraWave program is developing next-generation optical telescopes for space-based laser communication terminals (lasercom) operating in medium Earth orbit (MEO). These precision optical systems enable high-throughput data relay at rates exceeding 100 Gbps - forming the backbone of future space communication architectures. Our telescopes must meet fast paced requirements for wavefront error (WFE), line-of-sight (LOS) stability, and pointing accuracy while surviving launch loads and the orbital thermal environment. We are scaling from prototype to production-rate manufacturing of flight-qualified optical telescope assemblies - and we need a Manufacturing Engineer who can own the tooling, fixtures, and ground support equipment that make that production line possible. Special Mentions: * Travel expectations: Up to 20% (supplier sites, test facilities, launch integration) As the Manufacturing Engineer - Tooling & GSE, you will be the technical owner of all production tooling, alignment fixtures, handling equipment, and ground support equipment used to assemble, integrate, align, test, and transport precision optical telescope assemblies. You will bridge the gap between design engineering and the production floor - translating optical and opto-mechanical designs into robust, repeatable, and technician-executable manufacturing processes.
