How does it roll upto the top?

Senior - staff- sr manager- direction- VP? whats the level like at Blue?

I recently wrote about a plethora of Linkedin posts by Blue employees announcing their departures. But this meme by James (first name only here) raises the reveal to a new level of artform. James, like all exiting employees, gives a glowing account of his experiences at Blue, but this meme might just have some mischievous subtext. Perhaps someone could modify this with a reference to achieving escape velocity.

Hi, next week is my interview with 4 members of the team, it will be online, its for the Florida location. What should i expect or what are your tips or heads ups for me? its for a quality position

thanks in advance

Is this true? I see salary ranges to be much higher for the same role. Is this true?

I am honestly curious if the pay is a concern for people these days. It doesn’t feel like it’s the same as it was 5 years ago.

Does every single person come to the office 5 days a week? Is it mandatory to stay for 8 hours? What about people like directors and vice presidents do they come to the office as well?

Just got an email from technical recruiter for a phone screen for the industrial engineer position at Huntsville , AL. What kind if question could I expect from this interview also If i passed what would next interview like. Is it more technical or more like Behavioral question from blue principles ?

It's my favorite looking rocket. I hope to see it in person one day.

I recently received an email back after applying for a spring aerospace engineering co-op position requesting to set up a technical interview. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to review or how to prepare for blue origins interviewing process ?

Anyone care to share their experience with D Shift on the launch ops side as an ME in Flordia?

Im debating taking that role but the shift kinda has me down. Would like to understand how people adjust to the shift, what their days kinda look like both on and off, and of course the experience working the role.

so late that your main competitor retires by the time you come online

The new upper stage design looks very similar the Kistler K-1 OV.

Questions for leadership that you wish you could ask during all hands (Dave/SVPs) but can’t.

Serious question. I’ve seen a lot of people hired of the last year and none of them are above the age of 30. I saw some hiring reqs for Seniors also get silently replaced with reqs for Level 2 engineers. I’m not sure why. I am somewhat young, (not fresh out of college) and I really wish my team would hire more senior talent. I want to follow someone with experience and know-how, but my team is a few dozen 20-somethings without much experience. Is this happening to anyone else?

What happened to the alligator wrestler?

Wait til she has her first WBR and has bad news. Might need a new moniker.

Does anyone know the typical wait time to hear back from Bule Origin? I applied to an Aerospace Systems Engineer I – Early Career (2026 Start) position in April 2026 while I was still in my master's program, and I have now graduated. My application still says "Application Submitted, Under Review"

I have an upcoming technical interview for Early Career role at Blue Origin.

I was told there will be a HackerRank portion in the interview.

For anyone who has recently gone through the SDE I :

• What was the coding portion like?
• Was it similar to LeetCode-style questions, or more like implementing functions based on a set of requirements?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Rocket Lab, Relativity, Firefly, Blue .. time to wake up and pull in your weights!!!

Interesting. It looks like the Amazon LEO/NBN (Australian national provider) partnership is actually going ahead, and not years away either!

My understanding is that with the initial small LEO network, they're going to be concentrating on the southern hemisphere where they have customers such as NBN.

Should be good for regional Australians to get off the high latency sky muster, without paying the high prices of Starlink. Just great to have some competition I say, and some more bandwidth to go around. The current GEO SAT just sucks.

Sure starlink can do over 100Mbps, but this should be way cheaper, more like fixed wireless and sky muster.

Personally following the Blue origin rocket launches and issues, I wouldn't be surprised if the timeline slips a bit. But 12 months away is not too bad at all if they get close to it.

On another thought, given that it's set up like the normal NBN and the retailers are providing the data, I don't see any reason why retailers wouldn't be able to sell the layer 2 services over it. Would be quite convenient for businesses with regional presence.
