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 a Senior Avionics Systems Engineer within the Lunar Permanence team, you will play a pivotal role in developing the Blue Moon landers and associated infrastructure, essential for transporting crew and cargo to the lunar surface. We seek a professional with robust technical expertise, leadership abilities, and a commitment to quality, aimed at advancing safe human spaceflight. A passion for our mission and vision is essential.

You will work within the Avionics Command and Data Handling (C&DH) team, engaging in the hardware/software integration of C&DH components and designing networking systems for our crewed landers. As part of a dedicated team, your contributions will directly impact the development of sustainable lunar transport solutions.
** Responsibilities include but are not limited to:
*** Contribute to or lead C&DH architecture trade studies, concept development, verification planning, vehicle integration, and operations support.
* Analyze, manage, and interpret requirements at the C&DH subsystem level and flow down requirements to lower-level component specifications
* Generate verification and validation plans, and work with Integration and Test team to ensure the C&DH subsystem meets requirements.
* Develop and manage network architecture, integrating multiple subsystems while ensuring deterministic performance and budget compliance.
* Develop and manage C&DH fault tree analyses and other reliability analyses across the system lifecycle.
* Produce technical writing (procedural definitions, specifications, interfaces, analysis support and description documents).
* Contribute to design reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR) and ensure technical artifacts meet quality and compliance standards.
* Provide technical mentorship and peer review within the avionics engineering team.
*
* Minimum Qualifications:

*** B.S. in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical subject area
* 8+ years relevant experience in the full life cycle development of avionics systems, including requirements, design, integration, test, and operations.
* Highly knowledgeable of systems engineering practices, integration processes, and mission/safety critical systems
* An understanding of requirements definition, decomposition, and flow-down, circuit design, interface definition, hardware specifications, interface control, analyses, and verification.
* Demonstrated expertise delivering complex, safety critical C&DH or similarly highly integrated avionics systems involving multiple subsystems and networked and IO interfaces.
* Demonstrated expertise related to configuring and managing time-sensitive, deterministic networks such as like Time Sensitive Networking, ARINC 664, Time Triggered Ethernet, or other approaches
* Demonstrated expertise with Network/Precision Time Protocol and layer 2/3 networking (e.g., Ethernet, VLANs, QoS, IP, TCP/UDP, routing, etc.)
* Demonstrated functional understanding of common electrical digital and analog interfaces (e.g. Serial Bus Communications, Video, Audio, Ethernet, Analog Sensors, etc.)
* Excellent verbal, written, and graphical…
