## Vessel Project Construction ManagementApplylocations: Space Coast, FLtime type: Full timeposted on: Posted Todayjob requisition id: R69545Application 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 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.At Blue Origin, we are building the road to space — and that road runs through the ocean. The best-kept secret in space exploration is the critical role of marine assets and the use of one of Earth's most abundant resources — its oceans. The maritime industry has been integral to the exploration of space since its earliest days, with marine crews recovering flight hardware and astronauts since the dawn of human spaceflight. As the commercial space industry accelerates toward reusability to lower the cost of access to space, the importance of purpose-built marine vessels — and the teams who deliver and operate them — has never been greater.At Blue Origin, we are assembling a world-class team that pushes the boundaries of vessel development and delivers the simplest, most robust solutions to some of humanity's most complex operational challenges. We are currently executing the new construction of a marine vessel specifically designed to support the at-sea recovery of orbital-class rocket boosters, and we need a team of four Project Construction Managers who will be the boots on the ground at the shipyard — driving daily construction execution from steel cutting through sea trials and delivery.As a Project Construction Manager, you will be one of four construction managers embedded at the shipyard during the approximately 20-month vessel construction program. Working under the technical direction of the Technical Lead (Analyst / Naval Architect) and alongside the Senior Marine Electrical Engineer, you will manage day-to-day construction activities, monitor shipyard contractor performance, track schedule milestones, coordinate inspections, and ensure build quality meets Blue Origin's standards and classification requirements. You will serve as one of Blue Origin's primary on-site interfaces with shipyard personnel, subcontractors, the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), and the United States Coast Guard (USCG). You will coordinate closely with your fellow Project Construction Managers to ensure complete coverage of construction activities across all disciplines and phases of the build. As construction progresses toward outfitting and commissioning, you will also coordinate with the Recovery Offshore Operations Engineer to support recovery system installation timelines.If you have the ambition, drive, and determination to roll up your sleeves in a shipyard and help build a vessel that will change the world, this is the role for you. We are looking for motivated professionals eager to apply their technical knowledge, hands-on shipyard experience, and commitment to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight.
