HR Business Partner – Operations Blue Origin’s Operations organization builds the systems that power our mission to build a road to space. As manufacturing and production capabilities expand across multiple sites, the workforce strategy supporting those teams must scale with equal rigor.

This role sits at the intersection of business strategy, workforce architecture, and organizational performance, ensuring the organization has the leadership capability, workforce structure, and talent strategy required to execute at scale.

You will play a central role in shaping how the organization grows—helping leaders navigate organizational change, workforce scaling, leadership capability development, and operational workforce strategy across a mixed population of hourly technicians, engineers, and operational leaders. This is a high-impact individual contributor role with broad influence across the business and HR ecosystem. The successful candidate will bring deep experience supporting operational environments and will be comfortable operating in fast-paced conditions where both speed and sound judgment are required. This role is best suited for someone who is energized by solving complex organizational challenges, partnering closely with leaders, and building practical workforce solutions that enable operational performance.
