Easter Seals Jobs

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 diverse team of problem solvers as we add new chapters to the history of spaceflight! The role is part of the In-Space Systems business unit, which is focused on development, manufacturing, and operation of satellite systems to address one of the most compelling challenges in spaceflight today: space mobility. As part of a hardworking team of diverse engineers, you will be responsible for leading the engineering efforts of the Optical Module subsystem of an advanced lasercom optical communications terminal. The Optical Module consists of a telescope, gimbal, and optical bench assembly. This role requires an individual who can navigate technical complexities and guide a multi-disciplinary team through the development and large-scale production of cutting-edge free-space optical communication technologies. Special Mentions * Relocation provided * Travel expected up to 20% of the time Responsibilities include but are not limited to: Lead the development of an Optical Module subsystem, aligning with the overall system performance, integration, and project objectives. Manage the payload internal and external interfaces to ensure compatibility with host spacecraft and effective system performance in space. Collaborate with Production, Assembly, Integration, and Test teams. Define and manage technical requirements and overall Optical Module design. Conduct and supervise flight qualification approach. Play a critical role in Design for Manufacturability. Guide the design, development, assembly, performance verification, and fielding. Minimum Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Optical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or related field. 8+ years of experience in short-wave infrared optical systems engineering for space applications. Demonstrated understanding of electro-optical-mechanical payloads designed for space environments and space vehicle interfaces. Experience with the full lifecycle of aerospace optical systems, from development to flight qualification. Experience developing or managing integrated performance of optical systems including understanding of optical loss and throughput budgets, wavefront error, Structural-Thermal-Optical Performance (STOP) analysis, and precision pointing in space environments Experience with establishing manufacturing and alignment tolerances for opto-mechanical systems Developing subsystem- and component-level specifications, interfaces, and statements of work 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 Master's or Ph.D. degree in Optical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or a closely related field. Expertise in satellite laser communication system development optical payload development. Solid understanding of free-space laser communications and optical beam-pointing control. Proven leadership of technical projects involving innovative space-based optical systems. Effective communication skills to collaborate with government and commercial partners. Active Top Secret or TS/SCI Security clearance preferred.
