Embedded Software Engineer III - Glenn Avionics

Overview

Application close date:
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!

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.

As part of a hardworking team of engineers, you will develop flight software and tools for various spaceflight systems. You will share in the team’s impact on all aspects of safety-critical real-time embedded software development. Working in the New Glenn Avionics Software organization, you will be part of the world-class team responsible for creating the software that will enable New Glenn to carry people and payloads routinely to Earth orbit and beyond.

You will work on vehicle avionics and ground systems and be responsible for requirements, design, implementation, integration and testing of various software components and tools critical for the success of New Glenn’s mission. If relocating to one of the approved Blue Origin sites, we offer relocation assistance!

We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required!
