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 the Lunar Permanence business unit, which develops Blue Origin’s Blue Moon landers and related products. To further Blue Origin's mission of millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth, we are building sustainable infrastructure for our transport of crew and cargo from Earth to the lunar surface. As part of a hardworking team of engineers and technical specialists, you will directly impact the history of space exploration and demonstrate your commitment to safe, reliable, and repeatable spaceflight. Join us in lowering the cost of access to space and advancing Blue Origin's vision of millions of people living and working in space to benefit Earth. This opportunity resides within the Lunar Core Components Test team. As the Manager of Lunar Avionics Component Test, you will grow and lead a team of Avionics Component Test Engineers responsible for the development, qualification, and acceptance test planning and execution of avionics components for Blue Moon landers. You will partner closely with Design Responsible Engineers, Quality, Operations/Production, and other functional teams to deliver integrated test solutions across the full component lifecycle—from early development through qualification and production acceptance. You are an engineering leader, systems-thinker, and recognized problem solver who understands that rigorous, well-executed component testing is foundational to mission success. There is no "standard day" in this role: your team may be executing an acceptance test on flight hardware in the morning and developing a qualification test plan for a new avionics component in the afternoon. Every program and test campaign presents exciting new challenges to be overcome. Passion for our mission and vision is required. If you are excited by delivering both near-term and long-term value, solving novel problems, learning new topics, and completing challenging projects, please apply!
