Blue Origin LLC Avionics Hardware Engineer - TeraWave in Seattle, Washington

Application 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 TeraWave, a satellite communications network designed to deliver symmetrical data speeds of up to 6 Tbps anywhere on Earth. This network will service tens of thousands of enterprise, data center, and government users who require reliable connectivity for critical operations. The Emerging Systems business unit at Blue Origin is pioneering the future of space-based communications with TeraWave, a revolutionary satellite communications network designed to deliver symmetrical data speeds of up to 6 Tbps anywhere on Earth. This multi-orbit constellation will consist of 5,408 optically interconnected satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) and medium Earth orbit (MEO), providing enterprise-grade connectivity for critical operations worldwide. As an Avionics Hardware Engineer, you will be at the heart of developing and integrating the advanced electrical and avionics systems for our satellite platforms. You willbe responsible forthe design, development, and integration of critical hardware, including payload control units and translator boards, while also defining the electrical interfaces that tie these complex systems together. This role requires a unique blend ofexpertisein FPGA development, avionics systems engineering, and hands-on electrical integration. Special Mentions: Relocationassistanceis available for qualified candidates. Travel expectations: Up to 25% travel may berequiredfor integration activities, launch campaigns, and customer/vendor meetings. Responsibilities include but are not limited to: Lead the hardware development and integration of the Payload Control Unit, from requirements definition to final implementation.
