Avionics Hardware Engineer - New Glenn Rocket

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 supports the development and operations of New Glenn, a single-configuration, heavy-lift orbital launch vehicle capable of routinely carrying people and payloads to low-Earth orbit, geostationary transfer orbit, cislunar, and beyond.

Requirements

• Design and develop system requirements for data acquisition systems utilized for vehicle health monitoring and performance analysis
• Create and review schematics based on system requirements, ensuring accuracy and adherence to design specifications.
