Student Veterans of America Jobs

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 diverse 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 multiple Blue Moon lander product lines. To further Blue Origin's mission of having millions of people living and working in space, we are building sustainable infrastructure for our transport of crew and cargo from Earth to the lunar surface. As a Vision-Based Navigation Hardware Architect, you will directly contribute to the development of autonomous onboard navigation software for our crewed and un-crewed lunar vehicles. The products developed provide Lunar Permanence lander vehicles with software to enable unprecedented crew and mass-to-surface capabilities. You will directly impact the history of space exploration and will require your dedication and attention toward safe and reliable spaceflight. You will play a key role in developing the Lunar Permanence system that will return humans to the Moon and extend human presence permanently beyond the bounds of Earth. We are looking for our engineers to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and dedication to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required! Responsibilities include but are not limited to: Developing hardware, firmware, and software product solutions to contribute towards embedded vision-based navigation baselines and next generation vehicle designs. Support in the development and benchmarking of efficient embedded algorithms, flight critical software and models for autonomous perception, localization and mapping, and software to support vehicle navigationin FPGA, CPU and GPU based hardware platforms. Develop solutions to interface with state-of-the-art sensors and telemetry managementincluding the deployment of embedded software, including optical sensor I/O. Collaborate on the implementation of the processor-in-the-loop, software-in-the-loop, and hardware-in-the-loop testing, on-vehicle functional testing, and flight-testingfor multiple vehicle programs. Provide input and direction on next generation vision navigation hardware and software solutions as road mapping development efforts for future programs. Minimum Qualifications B.S. or M.S. or equivalent in computer science, aerospace engineering, or related technical field with 10+ years of proven experience.
