Mix-Signal Senior Design Engineer
role at
Blue Origin Overview
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 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. Responsibilities
Design, simulate and realize mixed-signal electronics PCBs using industry-standard tools such as Altium or Cadence. Perform comprehensive parts stress and worst-case circuit analysis to ensure circuit robustness under extreme conditions. Identify potential failure modes and implement design improvements to mitigate risks. Ensure optimal component placement, routing, and grounding strategies are employed. Develop comprehensive test plans and procedures that cover all functional and non-functional requirements. Create and review manufacturing documents, including schematics, layouts, and bills of materials. PCB bring up and debugging in the lab, ensuring a smooth transition from design to prototype. Execute test procedures in a laboratory setting to verify that boards meet all specified requirements and perform root-cause analysis on discrepancies. Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor\'s degree in Electrical or relevant fields, with 8+ years of experience or Masters degree with 6+ years of experience Experience with high-speed mixed-signal circuits, data converters and digitizers hardware, including part selection, analysis, simulation, testing, and troubleshooting, preferably in aerospace Experience with circuit design, analysis and PCB layout and testing for high-speed ADCs, DACs, PLLs, DDRs, NAND/NOR flash memory, microcontrollers, microprocessors Knowledge of signal and power integrity, grounding topologies and general PCB layout principles for mixed-signal applications Experience with SoC or Processor/FPGA boards with multiple power domains and clocks Experience with developing high-speed SerDes interfaces, including JESD204B/C, SPI, I2C, USB Experience with schematic-capture and PCB layout for high density, complex PCBs using Altium Designer (preferred) or Cadence OrCAD / Cadence Allegro Preferred Qualifications
Master of Science or equivalent in Electrical or Computer Engineering or related field 10+ years of experience in analog/mixed-Signal/digital circuits with focus on high-speed DACs, ADCs and data converters Experience leading multi-functional collaboration for up-screening and qualification of automotive-grade parts for space environments Familiarity with space hardware testing standards (e.g., MIL-STD-461) Familiar with schematic-capture and PCB layout using Altium Designer or Cadence tools Familiar with parts such as ADCs, DACs, OpAmps, power supplies, microcontrollers, processors, memory, MOSFETs Compensation and Benefits
Compensation ranges are provided by location: CA, CO and WA applicant ranges are listed in the description. Benefits include medical, dental, vision, life insurance, parental leave, disability coverage, 401(k) with company match, and Education Support. Paid time off and holidays are provided as described in the job posting. Equal Employment Opportunity
