Telemetry Systems Engineer III

This role supports the development and operations of New Glenn, a single-configuration, heavy‑lift orbital launch vehicle capable of routinely carrying people and payloads to low‑Earth orbit, geostationary transfer orbit, cislunar, and beyond. Its first stage is fully reusable, and the vehicle was designed from the beginning to be human‑capable.

You will join the New Glenn Launch System Architecture team, a dynamic and experienced team of engineers, analysts, and system architects who provide the technical framework for designing and operating the New Glenn launch vehicle. In this role, you will lead the team's impact on all aspects of RF telemetry planning and assessments. You will develop telemetry requirements and provide mission‑specific telemetry plans and manifests that meet those requirements.
