Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Engineer III
On-siteEngineering$131k–$183k/yrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes description paragraphs. We need to identify sections: About the role (maybe the introductory paragraph), Responsibilities, Requirements (Minimum Qualifications), Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications), Skills? Not explicit. Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have Pay: Base Pay Range For WA applicants is $130,706.00 - $182,987.70. Also mention "Other Site Ranges May Differ". So we can include Pay section with that info. Benefits: listed. Schedule: not mentioned explicitly; maybe "Willingness to support extended hours, weekend shifts, and on-call rotations during critical test campaigns" but that's not schedule. No explicit schedule, so we should not create Schedule section. Also "Relocation providedTravel expected up to 5% of the timeInterviews will include a technical assessment" - these are metadata; we can fold into a short p maybe under About the role or separate? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. So we can include a paragraph with those details: "Relocation provided. Travel expected up to 5% of the time. Interviews will include a technical assessment." Also "Application Close Date Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis until the requisition is closed." That's also metadata; we can include short p.
We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. So we need to strip out the EEO, Culture Statement, Export Control Regulations, Background Check, etc. Also remove "Special Mentions [Edit or remove as needed]" line? That's a placeholder; we should drop it. Also remove "Benefits Benefits include:" duplicate? Actually there is "Benefits Benefits include:" maybe a duplication; we need to keep benefits content but not duplicate heading. We'll produce a Benefits section with list.
We need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract:
Intro paragraph: "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 Advanced Concepts and Enterprise Engineering (ACE), supporting Blue Origin’s mission of millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth. The team fosters innovation and drives engineering workflows of the future, shared solutions and standards, simplicity and lower costs, and manufacturable design. Blue Origin is seeking a skilled and experienced Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Engineer to join our elite team of experts on the Engineering Center of Excellence Electromagnetics team. This is a unique opportunity to make a significant impact on the future of space exploration by ensuring top-level Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC), lightning, and Radio Frequency (RF) integration and architecture for our advanced electrical and electronic systems. Your expertise will be crucial in executing rigorous EMI/EMC testing, and developing robust verification strategies to ensure safe and repeatable spaceflight of our cutting-edge aerospace systems."
That's the About the role.
Then "Responsibilities Include But Are Not Limited To" followed by bullet list (actually sentences). We'll convert each sentence to
. Need to preserve all details.
Then "General" section with more responsibilities? Actually after responsibilities list there is a paragraph starting with "General Develop innovative design solutions..." That seems like additional responsibilities; we could include under Responsibilities as well, or maybe separate "General" but we should not create thin sections. Better to merge into Responsibilities.
Then "Minimum Qualifications" list.
Then "Preferred Qualifications" (M.S. in Electrical Engineering with EMC specialization).
Then "Base Pay Range For WA applicants is $130,706.00 - $182,987.70 Other Site Ranges May Differ". That's Pay.
Then "Benefits Benefits include: Medical, dental, vision, basic and supplemental life insurance, paid parental leave, short and long-term disability, 401(k) with a company match of up to 5%, and an Education Support Program.Stock Options for all regular employees (working at least 20 hours/week)Paid Time Off: Up to four (4) weeks per year based on weekly scheduled hours, and up to 14 company-paid holidays.Dependent on role type and job level, employees may be eligible for benefits and bonuses based on the company's intent to reward individual contributions and enable them to share in the company's results, or other factors at the company's sole discretion. Bonus amounts and eligibility are not guaranteed and subject to change and cancellation. Please check with your recruiter for more details."
We need to format Benefits as list items.
Also we have metadata paragraph: "Application Close Date Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis until the requisition is closed." plus "Relocation providedTravel expected up to 5% of the timeInterviews will include a technical assessment". We'll combine into a short p.
We must not include EEO etc.
Now produce HTML fragment: use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Minimum Qualifications), Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications), Benefits, Pay. Ensure we don't repeat job title.
We need to decide heading names: "About the role", "Responsibilities", "Minimum Qualifications", "Preferred Qualifications", "Benefits", "Pay". Could also combine Minimum and Preferred under "Qualifications" with subheadings? But instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use Requirements for Minimum Qualifications, Qualifications for Preferred Qualifications. Or we could have Requirements and Qualifications separate. Let's do: Requirements (Minimum Qualifications), Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications). That matches examples.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay.
Now produce HTML.
We need to wrap each section: About the role
...
. For lists: .
Make sure to preserve all details, not invent.
Let's craft About the role paragraph: combine the intro sentences.
Responsibilities: list each bullet from "Responsibilities Include But Are Not Limited To" plus the General paragraph items.
Let's extract responsibilities list:
- Serve as a responsible engineer for electrical system EMI/EMC test and verification, ensuring rigorous compliance with industry standards, customer requirements, and internal guidelines, with particular emphasis on MIL-STD-461G applicability and tailoring for aerospace platforms
- Author comprehensive EMI/EMC documentation, including system test strategies, requirements decomposition, margin management plans, and design rationales, with explicit traceability to MIL-STD-461 test method requirements and limit applicability matrices

Then General paragraph: "Develop innovative design solutions to address integrated system trades for EMI/EMC, lightning, ESD, and RF challengesContribute to the definition, verification, and validation of vehicle, system, and component-level requirements for EMI/EMC, lightning, ESD, and RFDeliver high level technical presentations on EMC solutions to review boardsIntegrate technical work performed within the architecture team as well as design teamsChampion EMI design and system EMC engineering activitiesConduct comprehensive risk reduction testing for EMI/EMC based on established industry standardsMake quick decisions in fast-paced environmentsWork across different functional and design teams to find solutions"
We need to split into separate list items. The paragraph lacks punctuation; we can split by capital letters? Better to make each sentence as separate item. Let's manually split:
- Develop innovative design solutions to address integrated system trades for EMI/EMC, lightning, ESD, and RF challenges
- Contribute to the definition, verification, and validation of vehicle, system, and component-level requirements for EMI/EMC, lightning, ESD, and RF
- Deliver high level technical presentations on EMC solutions to review boards
