Job summary

Blue Origin in the United States is seeking an experienced Electrical Test Engineer III to own electrical verification campaigns end-to-end, from interface checks through data bus testing, and to mentor junior staff. You will produce formal test reports, support root cause analysis, and coordinate with production to translate bench methods into producible procedures.

This role requires 5+ years in electrical test and a U.S.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in electrical test, system integration and test, or hardware verification in aerospace, defense, or high-reliability electronics.
• Experience leading electrical test campaigns end-to-end: procedure development, execution, anomaly disposition, and formal test reporting.
• Proficiency with electrical test equipment and nonconformance processes.
• Must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident, or otherwise eligible to work in the U.S.

Responsibilities

• Execute and lead electrical interface checks, continuity/isolation tests, and power bus verification campaigns; manage execution from test readiness through formal report closeout.
• Perform timing and latency characterization across all hardware interfaces; verify data bus operation: CAN, SpaceWire, MIL-STD-1553, RS-422, and discrete I/O.
• Conduct fault injection tests; capture results against defined pass/fail criteria and drive anomaly disposition through closure.
• Own and maintain electrical test procedures from development through formal review, release, and post-test red‑line incorporation.
• Author formal test reports; support root cause analysis for test failures and escaped defects.
• Serve as production liaison: develop training materials and deliver knowledge transfer sessions to production test engineers covering electrical verification techniques and common failure modes.
• Identify DFT improvements and provide actionable feedback to design and manufacturing engineering.
• Mentor Electrical Test Engineer I and II team members; review their procedures and test reports.
• Coordinate with subsystem engineers on test objectives, success criteria, and design-for-test requirements.
• Support formal acceptance test planning and customer witness test preparation.
