Full Job Description

Application close date:

Applications will be accepted on an ongoing basis until the requisition is closed.

Blue Origin is pioneering the future of space-based communications with TeraWave, a revolutionary satellite communications network designed to deliver symmetrical data speeds of up to 6 Tbps anywhere on Earth. This multi-orbit constellation will consist of optically interconnected satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) and medium Earth orbit (MEO), providing enterprise-grade connectivity for critical operations worldwide.

At Blue Origin, we envision millions of people living and working in space for the benefit of Earth. We are working to make that future a reality by creating reusable launch vehicles and systems that are safe, low-cost, and serve as the foundation for a permanent human presence in space. Terawave is Blue Origin's commercial satellite communications network, a 6 Tbps multi-orbit constellation delivering enterprise-grade broadband to the most demanding customers on Earth. As a Product Manager on the Terawave team, you will own a complete customer segment end-to-end: product specifications, SLA framework, go-to-market playbook, pricing tier, and anchor customer relationships. This role requires the technical depth to challenge engineering specs, the commercial acumen to model segment P&L, and the communication skills to represent your segment at VP-level reviews. You will be the single accountable PM for your archetype (enterprise, government, hyperscaler, etc) and your work directly shapes Terawave's product roadmap.

  • Prepare and defend business cases for proposed product investments at Head of Product review.
  • Brief the Head of Product on open decisions requiring cross-functional alignment.
  • Continuously monitor the engineering decision log for trades affecting segment SLAs.
