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 Blue Origin Engines business unit, where our focus is the design, development, manufacturing, and testing of engines and propulsion systems.

Built for multiple uses, our family of engines is powering the next generation of rockets for commercial, civil, national security, and human spaceflight.

As part of a small, passionate team of experts, you will be responsible for instrumentation and sensors for rocket engine systems. You will share in the team’s impact on all aspects of Blue Origin’s ability to develop, test and fly space vehicles and rocket engines through hands-on testing and real time  this role you will provide instrumentation solutions for rocket engines.  

You will deliver qualified instrumentation solutions that meet system engineering and quality system requirements.  You will create sensor and instrumentation engineering drawings, specifications and procedures.  You will work closely with sensor vendors to develop sensors that can perform to requirements in a very challenging environment on rocket engines.  You will perform sensor acceptance testing in electronics lab and environmental test lab environments as well as oversee test campaigns at vendors.
