Avionics Component Test Engineer II

Avionics Test Engineer – Lunar Core Components 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 Lunar Permanence business unit, which develops Blue Origin’s Blue Moon landers and related products. To further Blue Origin’s mission of millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth, we are building sustainable infrastructure for our transport of crew and cargo from Earth to the lunar surface. Role Overview Avionics Test Engineer on the Lunar Core Components team , you will support multiple products across multiple vehicles supporting human lunar missions. You will partner directly with Responsible Engineers (REs) to define test strategies, develop test plans and procedures, and execute development, risk reduction, qualification, and acceptance test campaigns. You will work within a multi-disciplinary test team and interface with vehicle teams, NASA, and National Team Partners to ensure avionics products meet performance, fault tolerance, and safety objectives. Optical Products Supported Lidar Systems Monitor/Displays Camera Systems Avionics Card/PCBAs Responsibilities Own the test scope for one or more Avionics products as a test engineer, partnering with the RE to understand requirements, design intent, interfaces, and fault‑tolerant behavior. Plan, write, and execute test plans and procedures for development, risk reduction, qualification, and acceptance testing. Support bench bring‑up and early hardware characterization alongside the design team. Support environmental test campaigns (thermal‑vacuum, vibration, EMI/EMC) including test planning, procedure execution, and anomaly resolution. Drive verification closure: map test evidence to requirements, track open items, and ensure test reports meet qualification standards. Identify, document, and track test anomalies through to resolution in coordination with the RE and broader team. Contribute to test infrastructure development including test equipment selection, test bed design, and ground support equipment (GSE) needs. Communicate test status, risks, and results clearly; support and lead technical reviews at appropriate milestones.
