You will contribute to the 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 help 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. Working alongside senior engineers, you will help build, test, and deploy the agents, knowledge pipelines, and ML models that reduce operator cognitive burden and enable fleet-scale management. 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 tracking, Applicants for employment at Blue Origin must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e. current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S.as a refugee or granted asylum. Background Check * Required for all positions: Blue's Standard Background Check * Required for Certain Job Profiles: Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) background check if at any time the role requires one to be on a military installation * Required for Certain Job Profiles: Drivers who operate Commercial Motor Vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW), Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or combination of power unit and trailer that meets or exceeds 10,001 lbs. and/or transports placardable amounts of hazardous materials by ground in any vehicle on a public road while in commerce, may be subject to additional Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations including: Driver Qualification Files, Medical Certification (obtained before onboarding), Road Test, Hours of Service, Drug and Alcohol Testing, vehicle inspection requirements, CDL requirements (if applicable) and hazardous materials transportation/shipping training. * Required for certain Job Profiles: Ability to obtain and maintain Merchant Mariner Credential, which includes pre-employment and random drug testing as well as DOT physical ## Related Videos - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [Photonic Computing: Programming a New Class of AI Accelerators (incl.
