Electrical Power System Test Engineer

At Blue Origin, we're pushing the boundaries of space exploration and development. As an Electrical Power System Test Engineer, you'll play a critical role in ensuring the safe and efficient operation of our spacecraft's power systems.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Integrate hardware, software, and local autonomy functionality of the integrated power system.
  • Perform validation tests of power system hardware in a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) environment.
  • Define requirements and drive design decisions to meet mission objectives and satisfy requirements while balancing cost, schedule, and risk.
  • Plan integration of new hardware, software, and test stands to accommodate design iterations and/or new programs.
  • Design, build, maintain, and resolve issues with test support equipment.
  • Integrate sensors, actuators, and algorithms together to produce a spaceflight-ready application.
  • Integrate signal processing, control, or related algorithms to run efficiently on embedded platforms.
  • Coordinate with the HIL team to ensure verification plans meet system safety requirements for high-power systems.
  • Participate in design for test/manufacture/cost (DFx) reviews and root-cause analysis of test discrepancies.
  • Optimally communicate development status, risks, and challenges to management.
  • Write cogent and succinct technical memos and devise innovative, intuitive, and fabulous ways to visualize quantitative information.
Requirements:
  • B.S. degree or equivalent experience in Aerospace, Electrical or Computer Engineering, Physics, or related technical fields.
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in software and/or hardware development, integration, systems engineering, testing experience, and supporting avionics or similarly broad integration.
  • Experience reading and writing code in C/C++, MATLAB/Simulink, and auto coding.
  • Experience with Apache Subversion or Git or similar revision control systems.
  • Passion for hands-on problem-solving and avionics integration.
  • Proven record of solving hardware/software problems in unfamiliar codebase/environment.
  • Familiarity with Agile development.
  • Familiarity with the principles, concepts, and methods of systems engineering such as concept development, requirement definition, design solution definition, design reviews, implementation, integration, verification and validation, qualification, commissioning, or operations.
  • Ability to work collaboratively in a fast-paced, dynamic work environment while regularly providing imaginative and detailed technical solutions to sophisticated problems.
  • Excellent verbal, written, and graphical communication skills.
  • Ability to earn trust, maintain positive and professional relationships, and contribute to a culture of inclusion.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • 8+ years of hands-on experience in software and/or hardware development, integration, systems engineering, testing experience, and supporting avionics or similarly broad integration.
  • Experience with human-rated space vehicle development and verification.
  • Experience developing and/or certifying DO-160, DO-178C, DO-254, and safety-critical applications.
  • Ability to quickly analyze issues with low-voltage instrumentation and control systems, 4-20 mA signals, and thermocouples.
  • Experience operating within a production configuration management environment.
