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.

Job Description

As a Test Engineer for Blue Origin's satellite programs, you will serve as the guardian of quality and the final arbiter of flight-readiness for our hardware. You will be responsible for the end to end ownership of test solutions, ensuring every component, subsystem, and integrated satellite meets our rigorous standards for performance, reliability, and mission success. Your work is what provides the ultimate confidence that our products will perform flawlessly in the environment of space.

We are seeking a technical engineer who can masterfully blend hardware, software, and systems level thinking. You will design, build, and commission the state of the art test systems that power our factory. From defining test requirements early in the design phase to analyzing data from the production line, you will be a critical hub of knowledge. This role is a unique opportunity to build a world class test infrastructure from the ground up for a program that is vital to Blue Origin's future.

Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Test System Design & Development: Architect, design, and build automated test equipment and test stations for avionics, power systems, and integrated satellite hardware. This includes selecting instrumentation (DMMs, oscilloscopes, power supplies, DAQ), designing test racks, and developing custom interface hardware.
  • Test Software & Automation: Develop robust, scalable, and automated test software and scripting (e.g., in Python, NI LabVIEW/TestStand) to control instrumentation, execute test sequences, and log data.
  • Procedure & Requirements Development: Collaborate with design engineering to interpret test requirements and author comprehensive test procedures, including Acceptance Test Procedures (ATPs) and Qualification (Qual) test plans.
  • Design for Test (DFT): Act as the primary test liaison for New Product Introduction (NPI), providing critical DFT feedback to design teams to ensure products can be tested efficiently and effectively at scale.
  • Data Analysis & Troubleshooting: Analyze test data to verify performance against specifications, certify hardware for flight, and lead root cause analysis efforts for test failures, working closely with design and manufacturing teams to drive resolution.
  • System Integration & Support: Commission test stations on the production floor, integrate them with the Manufacturing Execution System (MES), and provide ongoing engineering support to technicians to ensure maximum uptime and throughput.
  • Environmental Testing: Define and support environmental test campaigns, including thermal vacuum (TVAC), vibration, and EMI/EMC testing.

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Bachelor of Science or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field.
  • 2+ years of experience in a test engineering role, with a proven track record of architecting and leading complex test system development projects.
  • Limited experience level ability in designing integrated test systems and developing scalable, reusable test software architectures.
  • Demonstrated experience serving as the test lead for a major New Product Introduction (NPI) program, from requirements definition to production ramp.
  • Deep expertise in root cause analysis of complex hardware/software systems and a history of solving challenging technical problems.
  • Experience mentoring and providing technical guidance to other engineers.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience developing test solutions for satellite buses, payloads, or similar complex integrated systems.
  • Track record of making significant data-driven improvements to a production test process, resulting in improved yield, reduced cycle time, or lower cost.
  • Experience with integrating automated test stations with Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) to enable paperless workflows and data traceability.
  • Some experiance in RF test equipment and methodologies (e.g., network analyzers, spectrum analyzers).

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
