Blue Origin hires 47 Amazon Leo engineers for TeraWave
Bloomberg reported September 3, 2026 that Blue Origin has hired at least 47 veterans of Amazon's Leo satellite venture over the past year, many now working on TeraWave, Blue Origin's planned enterprise-focused constellation. Recruits include satellite-testing, networking, avionics, radio, optical and software engineers, plus a TeraWave recruiting director and at least two vice presidents who left Amazon Leo since March. Neither company commented. TeraWave is seeking FCC authority for thousands of satellites, with first deployments targeted around late 2027.
