Application close date:
Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis until the requisition is closed. 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 Blue National Security (BNS), where our focus is the design, development, and delivery of launch and spacecraft systems for national security missions. Through Blue Ring, our all-in-one, high-powered hybrid solar-electric and chemical-propelled spacecraft, we provide unmatched mission maneuverability, versatility, and capacity at dramatically lower-profile costs. Blue Ring is Blue Origin's multi-mission space mobility platform, and this team is building the next generation of intelligent ground systems that will redefine how satellite fleets are operated-moving beyond manual monitoring and reactive processes.
We are seeking a Principal AI Engineer to join the Blue Ring software team. You will lead the development of AI and machine learning capabilities embedded in Blue Ring's ground system, spanning multi-agent monitoring, conversational knowledge retrieval, and ML-driven anomaly detection that empower satellite operations at fleet scale. In this role, you will build agent tooling, maintain RAG knowledge pipelines, develop telemetry ML models, and support production AI services that operators rely on daily.
Role and Responsibilities:
As a member of the Blue Ring AI/ML engineering team, you will contribute to the AI/ML systems that form the intelligence layer for Blue Origin's satellite fleet operations. You will be expected to:
Multi-Agent System Development:
- Implement and test agent components within the multi-agent architecture for telemetry analysis, anomaly detection, and reporting
- Build and maintain integrations that connect agents to ground system services
- Develop agent tooling, prompt templates, and orchestration logic for LLM service integrations
- Build and maintain RAG pipeline components including document ingestion, embedding generation, and vector database indexing
- Implement retrieval strategies and answer generation workflows for operator queries
- Implement components for human-in-the-loop decision workflows, including investigation packages and remediation options
- Deploy and maintain containerized AI services using Docker and AWS infrastructure
- Contribute to audit trail, observability systems, and production operations including incident response
Model Development (Post-training and Time-series Analysis):
- Prepare and transform spacecraft telemetry data for ML model training
- Assist in training and evaluating anomaly detection and time-series forecasting models on telemetry data
- Support automated model retraining pipelines that incorporate new flight data and operator feedback
- Develop model evaluation scripts and metrics
