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!\nBlue Origin is pioneering the future of space-based connectivity with TeraWave, a revolutionary satellite communications network designed to deliver symmetrical data speeds of up to 6 Tbps anywhere on Earth. This network will service tens of thousands of enterprise, data center, and government users who require reliable connectivity for critical operations.As a Principal Verification Engineer on the ASIC & Networking team, you will support TeraWave's first in-house silicon program, which comprises a high-throughput modem and a DSP-intensive digital beamformer with first tapeout targeted for 2027. Verification strategy, methodology, and infrastructure are being defined now, and you will help define them.\nThe work spans IP, subsystem, and full SoC verification, including CPU subsystems, performance-critical interconnects, security, high-speed peripherals, modem datapath and PHY layers, DSP and beamforming compute, and mixed-signal interfaces. You will own a subset of this scope aligned to your background.\nThe team treats constrained-random simulation, formal methods, and processor-driven SoC testing as equal first-class tools, and is building an AI-enabled verification platform that includes LLM-assisted stimulus and testbench generation, automated regression triage and failure clustering, and data-driven coverage closure. Because none of this is inherited, the engineers who build these capabilities will own them - and grow with the program as it scales.\nBackground in wireless communications, modem, baseband, and DSP verification is welcome but not required. Architects and modeling engineers support your ramp, and verification judgment and system-level thinking are weighted above domain background.\nKey Responsibilities:\nLead verification for chip level and complex subsystems through sign-off, collaborating with global engineering teams.\nOwn verification strategy, test plans, and measurable coverage goals across assigned subsystems and SoC.\nIdentify verification gaps, propose methodology changes, and implement them across the verification organization.\nServe as subject area expert, setting technical direction and resolving escalated verification problems.\nArchitect reusable verification environments, reference models, and infrastructure spanning IP, subsystem, and SoC levels.\nDrive regression health, coverage closure, and sign-off readiness across simulation and formal results.\nReview testbench architecture and debug approaches, and mentor engineers in verification methodology.\nPartner with design, architecture, and modeling teams to align verification with program milestones.\nBasic Qualifications:\nBachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field, or equivalent experience. • Minimum ten years of professional experience in ASIC or SoC functional verification.\nHands-on expertise in SystemVerilog and UVM testbench development, plus metric driven verification.\nExperience as verification technical lead on at least one taped out silicon program.\nWillingness to travel up to 10 percent to other team locations.\nPreferred Qualifications:\nRecognized depth in at least one verification specialty applied on production silicon programs.\nFormal verification experience on production silicon, including connectivity, register maps, arbitration, CDC, or security properties.\nGate level simulation experience, including timing aware and post layout runs and debug.\nVerification background in wireless or wired communication systems, including modem, baseband, PHY, or DSP hardware.\nExperience verifying LDPC, FEC, framing, or beamforming logic using bit-accurate reference models and fixed-point analysis.\nExperience developing C based or portable stimulus for SoC, CPU boot, and firmware driven scenarios.\nExperience applying AI, ML, or LLM tooling to stimulus generation, regression triage, or coverage analysis.\nCulture Statement\nDon’t meet all desired requirements? Studies have shown that some people are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single desired qualification. At Blue Origin, we are dedicated to building an authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every desired qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.\nCandidates may be subject to verification and BGS screening as per applicable law.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4885,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":10,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Launch Services","Space Services"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-20T14:29:20Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":88,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.875,"p_room":1,"age_days":10,"expected_fill_days":43,"reasons":["conf:25","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-23T05:54:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/blue-origin-principal-verification-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/blue-origin-principal-verification-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-23T23:07:24Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":6319,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-24T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":3698},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3698"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fblue-origin-principal-verification-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fblue-origin-principal-verification-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fblue-origin-principal-verification-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/blue-origin-principal-verification-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fblue-origin-principal-verification-engineer"}]}
