Sr. Structural Engineer, Spacecraft, Orbital Data Centers
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Qualifications heading and then list items. Could separate Minimum and Preferred as with maybe note? But we need to preserve all substantive info. We could list Minimum Qualifications as items, then Preferred Qualifications as items. Could also add a separate "Additional Requirements" maybe under Qualifications or as its own section? The instruction list includes Requirements as possible heading. Could use "Requirements" for Additional Requirements (citizenship, willingness to work extended hours). But we also have Minimum Qualifications etc. Might be better to have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications (minimum), Preferred Qualifications (maybe as part of Qualifications?), Additional Requirements, Benefits, Pay.
But we must not create sections with filler. All these have content.
We must not include Job ID etc. There's none.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, application instructions, navigation, cookie, legal. Also remove "Culture Statement"? It's not EEO but it's a statement encouraging applications; could be considered part of About the role. We'll incorporate that paragraph into About the role.
Also remove "Background Check Required..." etc. That's legal/boilerplate; should be removed.
Also remove "Export Control Regulations" etc. That's legal; remove.
Also remove "Equal Employment Opportunity" etc. Remove.
Also remove "Affirmative Action and Disability Accommodation" etc. Remove.
Also remove "Application Close Date Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis until the requisition is closed." That's boilerplate; remove.
Now we need to preserve all substantive information: mission description, team description, responsibilities list, qualifications (minimum and preferred), additional requirements (willingness to work extended hours, citizenship), benefits list, pay ranges.
We need to format as HTML fragment: use for headings, - for lists,
for prose.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings.
We must output only HTML fragment.
Let's craft.
First, About the role: combine mission statements.
Paragraph: "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 Advanced Concepts and Enterprise Engineering (ACE), supporting Blue Origin’s mission of millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth. The team fosters innovation and drives engineering workflows of the future, shared solutions and standards, simplicity and lower costs, and manufacturable design. Join Blue Origin as we build infrastructure in space for the benefit of Earth. We’re developing a satellite constellation of orbital data centers, Sunrise, designed to transform how compute infrastructure is deployed and leveraged."
That's good.
Second, Responsibilities: list items from "Responsibilities Include But Are Not Limited To". We'll list each bullet.
Third, Qualifications: we could have Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications as separate subheadings? But instruction only allows h3 for section headings; we could still use
for "Minimum Qualifications" and another for "Preferred Qualifications". That's okay. Or we could combine under one "Qualifications" with two lists labeled via
or . But better to follow instruction: use headings for sections; we can have multiple sections.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Minimum Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Additional Requirements, Benefits, Pay.
Check if any content for Schedule? Not present, so omit.
Now ensure we don't include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Now we need to preserve all specifics: Minimum Qualifications list:
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related discipline.
- 7+ years of professional experience in structural analysis, with a focus on space, aerospace, or a similar high-performance industry.
- Expert proficiency with Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software such as ANSYS, NASTRAN, or Abaqus.
- Demonstrated experience performing classical hand calculations for stress analysis.
- Strong fundamentals in solid mechanics, dynamics, and material science.
- Experience analyzing hardware for launch and operational environments in space (random vibration, shock, thermal cycles, etc.).
Preferred Qualifications:
- Master's or Ph.D. in a relevant engineering discipline.
- Experience with the analysis of composite structures and bonded joints.
- Familiarity with fracture mechanics and fatigue analysis (e.g., using NASGRO).
- Experience correlating analysis models to structural test data.
- Proficiency in scripting (e.g., Python, MATLAB) for automating analysis workflows and processing data.
- Familiarity with CAD software (e.g., CREO, NX) for model preparation and interrogation.
Additional Requirements:
- Willingness to work extended hours and weekends as necessary to support critical project milestones.
- Must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, or eligible for authorization under U.S. export regulations.
Benefits list:
- 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 that last sentence? It's somewhat generic but still substantive about bonuses. It's not filler like "commensurate with experience". It's specific about bonus eligibility. We'll keep.
Pay: Base Pay Range For CA applicants is $145,188.00 - $203,263.20 CO applicants is $133,500.00 - $186,898.95 WA applicants is $145,188.00 - $203,263.20 VA applicants is $145,188.00 - $203,263.20 Other Site Ranges May Differ
We'll present as a paragraph.
Now ensure we removed all boilerplate: Application Close Date, Export Control Regulations, Background Check Required..., Equal Employment Opportunity, Affirmative Action..., etc.
Also remove "Culture Statement" but we incorporated its content into About the role? Actually the 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." This is encouraging to apply; could be considered part of About the role or a separate section like "Encouragement". But we could include it as a paragraph under About the role or maybe as its own section "About the role" already includes mission; we could add this as another paragraph under About the role. It's substantive, not boilerplate. So we'll add it as a second paragraph in About the role.
Now ensure we didn't include any duplicate lines.
Now produce HTML.
