CAD Engineer – Infrastructure

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!  Blue Origin is pioneering the future of space-based communications with Tera Wave, 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 optically interconnected satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) and medium Earth orbit (MEO), providing enterprise-grade connectivity for critical operations worldwide.

We are seeking a CAD Engineer with a focus oncompute and design infrastructure to support our Custom ASIC Silicon (CAS) team. This role is critical to enabling a high-performance design environment that empowers our engineering teams to execute at the cutting edge of semiconductor development.
** Responsibilities include but are not limited to:
*** Implement and maintain compute infrastructure supporting CAS design and verification activities
* Configure and manage EDA tool environments and license servers for the CAS engineering team
* Support the deployment of high-performance computing (HPC) clusters and storage systems for large-scale simulation and verification workloads
* Implement continuous integration systems for design validation within the CAS flow
* Monitor compute resource utilization and provide capacity planning recommendations
* Manage EDA tool access, licensing, and version control across the CAS team
* Collaborate with IT and infrastructure teams to optimize on-premise and cloud-based design environments
* Troubleshoot and resolve infrastructure issues impacting design team productivity
* Develop and document infrastructure best practices and standard operating procedures for the CAS organization
*
* Minimum Qualifications:

*** B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field
* 10+ years of experience in CAD/EDA infrastructure or semiconductor design environments
* Experience managing compute infrastructure for semiconductor or ASIC design teams
* Familiarity with EDA license server management (e.g., FlexLM/Flex Net)
* Strong scripting skills (Python, shell, Perl, or Tcl)
* Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git, Perforce) in a hardware design context
* Knowledge of Linux-based HPC environments
*
* Preferred Qualifications:

*** M.S. in relevant engineering discipline
* Experience with cloud-based EDA infrastructure (AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure)
* Background in high-performance computing environments for VLSI design
* Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines applied to hardware design flows
* Experience with container technologies (Docker, Kubernetes) in EDA environments
* Understanding of storage systems and network architecture for large design databases
* Experience supporting large ASIC design teams across multiple concurrent projects### Base Pay Range for:
