About the role

Blue Origin's Seattle team seeks a TeraWave Radiation Engineer to own the end-to-end radiation hardness assurance for spacecraft, defining environments, margins, and requirements across EEE parts, payloads, and avionics. You will guide mitigation strategies, perform shielding analyses, and evaluate parts for DES/SEE/ TID effects, working with suppliers and test facilities. This role requires U.S. citizenship or a lawful status to work in the U.S.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
