    we've been hearing about this
    Yes, and I'm sure some /.'ers will be interested in hearing about this job listing at Blue Origin. If you have an engineering degree and experience in Java, SQL, Python, Perl, C, and C++, you might find this a pretty amazing opportunity. They are rapidly expanding their staff here in Seattle.
