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!

As a member of the Blue Origin family of companies, Honeybee Robotics has been at the forefront of robotics for over 40 years. Our Colorado location specializes in creating advanced motion‑control solutions for NASA, defense, and commercial programs. Our work has played a critical role in thousands of projects, spanning from conceptual design studies to flight missions, including NASA’s Artemis I Mission and the Roman Space Telescope.

We are seeking technically brilliant individuals who are passionate about their work, thrive in collaborative environments, and have a laser focus on the details that drive excellence.

As part of a hardworking team of specialists, technicians, and engineers, you will support the development, design, test, and manufacturing of Honeybee Robotics’ electronic Motion Control products. You will contribute to multi‑board designs through development, gaining experience as products progress toward flight‑ready status and transition to the manufacturing and test engineering teams.

You will contribute to electronic design within project teams, support design reviews, and collaborate with customers and colleagues. This includes working within multidisciplinary team structures, developing prototypes, test plans and circuit designs under the supervision of senior engineers, and designing hardware that will actually go to space.

We are looking for someone eager to grow their technical expertise and commitment to quality, making a positive impact on safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required!
