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!\nThis role supports the development and operations of New Glenn, a single-configuration, heavy-lift orbital launch vehicle capable of routinely carrying people and payloads to low-Earth orbit, geostationary transfer orbit, cislunar, and beyond. Its first stage is fully reusable, and the vehicle was designed from the beginning to be human-capable.As part of a hardworking team of specialists, technicians, and engineers, you will own the electrical interconnect documentation that defines and supports our Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) labs. You will create and maintain System Interconnect Diagrams (SIDs), Block Interconnect Diagrams (BIDs), HIL networking diagrams, and end-to-end schematics in AutoCAD Electrical, along with harness wiring information (from-to tables) and 2D harness drawings in Creo. Your documentation is what technicians, integration engineers, and customers rely on to build, troubleshoot, and modify the HIL labs, so accuracy and configuration control are critical to everything you do.\nTo be successful, you will work closely with HIL integration engineers, technicians, and customers to capture connectivity requirements and translate them into clear, manufacturing- and build-ready documentation. You will need to be comfortable moving between high-level system architecture (SIDs, BIDs, network topology) and detailed, build-level documentation (schematics, from-to tables, harness drawings, BOMs).\nSpecial Mentions\nRelocation provided\nResponsibilities include but are not limited to:\nDevelop and maintain System Interconnect Diagrams (SIDs) and Block Interconnect Diagrams (BIDs) to map system-level connectivity, signal flow, and power distribution across HIL racks, Avionics equipment, and simulation/EGSE interfaces.\nCreate and maintain HIL networking diagrams documenting network topology, switch/port assignments, and connectivity between HIL nodes, simulation hosts, and flight/ground avionics.\nDesign end-to-end electrical schematics in AutoCAD Electrical, including component selection, signal routing, and pin-out definitions.\nGenerate and maintain harness wiring information (from-to tables) that accurately captures wire, connector, and pin-level connectivity for HIL cable assemblies.\nCreate 2D wire harness drawings and manufacturing build packages in Creo, complete with bills of materials (BOMs), wire lengths, and bundle dimensions.\nSelect and specify electrical components such as connectors, terminals, wire types, fuses, and protection sleeves appropriate for HIL lab and integration environments.\nSupport prototype builds, bring-up, troubleshooting, and validation of HIL wiring and interconnects, working directly with technicians during assembly and integration.\nEstablish and maintain drafting standards, symbol libraries, and configuration control for HIL electrical documentation, including redlines and revisions in Windchill.\nCollaborate with HIL customers, integration engineers, and quality to identify documentation requirements and resolve discrepancies between as-built hardware and controlled drawings.\nMinimum Qualifications\nB.S. degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related technical field.\n2-5 years of experience in electrical system integration, schematic design, or wire harness development.\nHands-on experience with AutoCAD Electrical (or similar tools) for schematic and interconnect diagram creation.\nWorking knowledge of Creo (or similar 3D/2D CAD tool) for 2D harness drawing creation.\nSolid understanding of wire sizing (AWG), shielding principles, and connector mating systems.\nAbility to interpret engineering drawings and produce accurate, actionable documentation and BOMs.\nStrong written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills; able to work effectively with technicians, engineers, and customers.\nComfortable working across multiple levels of documentation, from system-level block diagrams to detailed from-to wiring tables.\nPreferred Qualifications\nExperience in a Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) or system integration lab (SIL) environment.\nFamiliarity with Ethernet, UDP/IP, and multicast networking concepts as applied to HIL networking diagrams.\nFamiliarity with industry standards such as IPC-WHMA-A-620 for harness quality.\nBase Pay Range for:\nWA applicants is $99,201.00 - $138,880.35Other site ranges may differ\nCulture Statement\nDon’t meet all desired requirements?
