Manufacturing Quality Manager - A Shift
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we need to extract content for each.
Let's parse:
- Intro: "Application Close Date Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis until the requisition is closed." That's metadata; we can drop or put in short p. Not a heading.
- Then: "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 Blue Origin Operations, which is comprised of Integrated Supply Chain, Test Operations, Safety, Quality, and Mission Assurance. This includes Manufacturing and Supply Chain support across all Blue Origin facilities. We are a team of collaborators, doers, and problem-solvers who are relentlessly committed to a culture of safety. This position will directly impact the history of space exploration and will require your commitment and detailed attention towards safe and repeatable space flight. Join us in lowering the cost of access to space and enabling Blue Origin’s vision of millions of people living and working in space to benefit Earth. As part of a hardworking team of Quality employees, your responsibilities will include the following:" This is about the role and responsibilities intro. Could be "About the role" section.
- Then list of responsibilities (bulleted). So we can have Responsibilities
with - items.
- Then after responsibilities: "We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required! Note this position is for day shift, Monday - Friday (7:00 am - 5:00 pm). Oversight includes Quality Engineers, Quality Specialists and Inspectors." This includes schedule info (day shift Monday-Friday 7am-5pm). Could be Schedule section.
- Then "Qualifications" heading appears in text: "Qualifications" then list. So we need Qualifications section.
- Then "Desired Experience" bullet list: could be part of Qualifications or separate "Desired Experience" but not in allowed headings; we could incorporate into Qualifications as part of same section (maybe separate
for desired). But instructions: Use headings from list; we can have Qualifications heading and include both required and desired under it.
- Then "Culture Statement" paragraph: could be part of About the role or separate but not in allowed headings; maybe we can include as a paragraph under About the role.
- Then "Export Control Regulations" etc: that's legal boilerplate; we should remove.
- Then "Benefits" heading appears: "Benefits Benefits include: ..." So we need Benefits section.
- Then "Equal Employment Opportunity" etc: boilerplate; remove.
- Then "Affirmative Action and Disability Accommodation": remove.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Schedule, Benefits.
Check if any Pay info: none specific; not include Pay.
Now we need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not omit details.
We need to extract each piece exactly as in text, but we can format as or
- . Must not repeat job title as heading.
Let's gather content.
About the role: Should include the introductory paragraphs before responsibilities list. Let's capture:
"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!

We are a team of collaborators, doers, and problem-solvers who are relentlessly committed to a culture of safety. This position will directly impact the history of space exploration and will require your commitment and detailed attention towards safe and repeatable space flight. Join us in lowering the cost of access to space and enabling Blue Origin’s vision of millions of people living and working in space to benefit Earth. As part of a hardworking team of Quality employees, your responsibilities will include the following:" Actually the last sentence leads into responsibilities; we could keep it as part of About the role or as intro to responsibilities. Probably better to keep it in About the role, but it's okay.
We need to ensure we don't duplicate content.
Responsibilities list: bullet points after that sentence.
Let's extract each bullet:
- Lead, coach, and mentor a team of Quality Engineers, Specialists, to execute daily manufacturing quality operations
- Conduct regular performance reviews, set objectives, and identify professional development opportunities for direct reports
- Foster a team culture anchored in accountability, transparency, and continuous improvement
- Champion adherence to the AS9100 Quality Management System across manufacturing operations; lead internal audit activities
- Identify, prioritize, and lead continuous improvement initiatives using structured methodologies (e.g., DMAIC, Kaizen, 8D)
- Develop and track quality metrics and KPIs; prepare variance analyses and initiate corrective actions to address adverse trends
- Support preparation and management of the Quality Assurance operating budget, identifying cost reduction opportunities without compromising safety
- Partner with Manufacturing Engineering, Design Engineering, Supply Chain, and Test teams to embed quality at every stage of the product lifecycle
- Serve as the primary Quality representative during hardware acceptance reviews, launch readiness reviews, and customer audits
- Support the Supplier Quality team in addressing supplier nonconformances that impact New Glenn manufacturing
- Interface with regulatory agencies (FAA, NASA) and customers as required to communicate quality status and corrective actions
Check if any missing: also "Oversight includes Quality Engineers, Quality Specialists and Inspectors." That appears after schedule note; maybe part of responsibilities? It's about oversight; could be included in responsibilities but it's after schedule. We'll treat as part of responsibilities maybe separate bullet? It's a statement about oversight; we can include as a bullet under Responsibilities.
Now Qualifications: list after "Qualifications". Let's extract:
- 8+ years of progressive quality engineering or quality management experience in aerospace, defense, or advanced manufacturing environments
- 3+ years of direct people management experience, with demonstrated ability to develop high-performing teams
- Working knowledge of AS9100 Quality Management Systems and the ability to lead internal and external audits
- Demonstrated experience managing nonconformance processes, corrective action systems, and First Article Inspections (AS9102)
- Proven ability to lead root cause analysis investigations (8D, Fishbone, FMEA, or equivalent) and drive sustainable corrective actions
- Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to present quality data and recommendations to senior leadership
Then "Desired Experience" bullet list:
- Experience in aerospace launch vehicle manufacturing, space systems, or human-rated flight hardware programs
- Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt certification; demonstrated application in a manufacturing environment
- Familiarity with AS9145 (APQP/PPAP) methodology and its application in new product development to production transitions
- Experience with Statistical Process Control (SPC) and quality performance measurement analysis
- Relevant experience in a start-up or growth-stage environment, transitioning products from development through production to operations
- Exposure to NASA standards (NASA-STD-8739 series, NPR 8735) or FAA quality requirements
- Experience supporting government or commercial launch campaigns and flight readiness reviews
We can include these under Qualifications as separate bullet list maybe under a subheading? But we only have
- . We could just combine all bullets under Qualifications.
Now Schedule: from note: "Note this position is for day shift, Monday - Friday (7:00 am - 5:00 pm)." Also oversight statement maybe separate but we can include schedule only.
Thus schedule paragraph: "This position is for day shift, Monday - Friday (7:00 am - 5:00 pm)."
Now Benefits: list after "Benefits Benefits include:" Let's extract:
- Medical, dental, vision, basic and supplemental life insurance, paid parental leave, short and long-term disability, 401(k) with a company match of up to 5%, and an Education Support Program.
- Stock Options for all regular employees (working at least 20 hours/week)
- Paid Time Off: Up to four (4) weeks per year based on weekly scheduled hours, and up to 14 company-paid holidays.
- Dependent on role type and job level, employees may be eligible for benefits and bonuses based on the company's intent to reward individual contributions and enable them to share in the company's results, or other factors at the company's sole discretion. Bonus amounts and eligibility are not guaranteed and subject to change and cancellation. Please check with your recruiter for more details.
We need to keep all that.
Now About the role also includes Culture Statement paragraph: "Don’t meet all desired requirements? Studies have shown that some people are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single desired qualification. At Blue Origin, we are dedicated to building an authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every desired qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles."
We can include that as a paragraph under About the role after the intro.
Now also there is "Export Control Regulations" etc which we must remove.
Now we need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Thus produce something like:
