Company:
The Boeing CompanyJoin Boeings Artemis team build on a legacy at Michoud Americas Rocket Factory
Imagine your work directly enabling humanitys return to the Moon and paving the way for deep space exploration. As a Methods Process Analyst on Boeings Artemis program youll help design refine and sustain the manufacturing and production processes that turn visionary spacecraft concepts into flightready hardware. Every process improvement you develop can reduce mission risk accelerate delivery and increase reliability for crewed lunar missions and beyond.
A proud heritage Michoud Assembly Facility (MAF)
Located in New Orleans East and operated in partnership with NASA Michoud is often called Americas Rocket Factory. It combines one of the worlds largest industrial manufacturing buildings with heavylift tooling largeformat fabrication capability and a decadeslong heritage of producing the large structures that enable human exploration.
Key capabilities:
One of the largest manufacturing floors under one roof (roughly 43 acres) with expansive high bays large cranes and controlled clean areas for flight hardware.
Heavylift tooling large autoclaves precision weld stations and integrated assembly platforms uniquely suited to build launch vehicle stages cryogenic tanks habitats and other verylarge structures.
Deep partnerships with NASA primes suppliers and commercial customers that enable integrated production and vertical assembly of complex systems.
Programs Michoud has supported
Apollo era fabrication and assembly of large structural components and stages that enabled the Saturn family and the Moon landings.
Skylab and early space station hardware large pressurized and structural elements for orbital programs.
Space Shuttle primary production site for the Space Shuttle External Tank for all shuttle flights demonstrating highvolume reliable largetank manufacturing.
Constellation/Ares and Orion precursor work facilities and tooling used for development and preparatory manufacturing of nextgeneration crew systems.
Space Launch System (SLS) & Artemis production of SLS core stages and other large flight structures central to crewed lunar missions.
Orion and crewed spacecraft structures production and assembly supporting crew transport elements and missioncritical hardware.
Civil commercial and scientific payloads large spacecraft structures launch components and ground systems for NOAA civil agencies and commercial partners.
Why Michoud matters for your work
Institutional knowledge: Lessons learned from Apollo Shuttle and ongoing Artemis production flow directly into your process designs helping you create robust flightcertifiable manufacturing processes.
Unique scale: Michoud enables processes (welding tooling handling largestructure integration) that smaller sites cannot giving Methods Process Analysts the chance to shape workflows used on the largest rockets and habitats humanity builds.
Strategic impact: Your process improvements help preserve and evolve Americas capability to produce the big complex hardware required for sustainable lunar and deep space exploration.
Exciting projects you may support
Artemis crewed missions and Orion integration for safe lunar transport.
Robotic assembly autonomous tooling and advanced manufacturing for on and offplanet operations.
Preparatory manufacturing workstreams that feed forward into Mars and deep space architectures.
Why this role is exciting
Make a measurable impact: Shape forecasts capacity plans and master schedules that directly influence mission readiness and crew safety.
Be the technical expert: Own Business System factory definitions labor hour estimates and integrated shop plans that enable precision manufacturing.
Solve highvalue problems: Rapidly assess unplanned events quantify impacts to cost/schedule/resources and recommend pragmatic mitigations.
Drive continuous improvement: Apply Lean/Six Sigma and modelbased approaches to boost throughput reduce waste and elevate performance.
Collaborate across disciplines: Work with engineering production tooling mission assurance suppliers and NASA partners to align plans and deliver results.
Grow your career: Gain exposure to advanced planning tools systems engineering practices and missioncritical programs with progression opportunities across Levels 24.
Who were looking for Proactive analytical professionals with curiosity excellent communication skills and a passion for improving how complex systems are delivered. If you enjoy translating data into actionable plans and influencing outcomes through technical expertise youll thrive in this role.
Join us at Americas Rocket Factory and play a critical role in building resilient efficient manufacturing operations that enable historic space missionsand help define what comes next in human exploration.
