Description

• Amazon Leo is an initiative to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites that will provide low-latency, high-speed broadband connectivity to unserved and underserved communities around the world. Come work at Amazon! As a Sr. Hardware Design Engineer, you will engage with an experienced cross-disciplinary team to design innovative product solutions. You will work closely with colleagues throughout Leo's inter-disciplinary team in order to drive key aspects of product definition, execution and optimization. You must be responsive, flexible and able to succeed within a collaborative and fast-paced environment. As a member of the team, you will be responsible for designing RF subsystems for use in space. Must be able to work effectively cross-functionally with multiple disciplines. In this role you will: • Decompose system level requirements into realizable hardware requirements. • Design and develop a solution that meets these requirements. • Simulate and optimize RF circuits, perform schematic capture, and oversee PCB layout. • Build up test bench for design verification. • Evaluate and optimize design in the lab to demonstrate solution meets all requirements. • Work with RF system, power, software, mechanical thermal, reliability and compliance teams to ensure solution integrates with overall platform requirements. Export Control Requirement: Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum. Key job responsibilities • Will work cross-functionally on collaboration to fluently engage with diverse engineering disciplines, effectively advocate for hardware system requirements, board bring up , pcba assembly, and ensure alignment for overall system success. • Works closely with the production test team to define DVT, Qualification and production test requirements • Develop, designs, and test of ASIC and subsystems and systems. • Derive HW specifications for the KMM system • Performs root cause analysis on products, technical problems, processes and documentation. • Assess feasibility of various designs in support of architectural definition • Participate in subsystem design and prototyping, schematic capture, prototype bring-up and debugging, hardware bug tracking, functional verification, and signal characterization • Evaluate and characterize new technology, prototypes and RF components • Support manufacturing engineers on production testing of RF avionics components and systems • Evaluates systems and directs design modifications. • Troubleshoots and repairs circuits and fixtures.

Basic Qualifications

• - Experience in developing functional specifications, design verification plans and functional test procedures - Experience in component selection and understanding of component reliability - Experience in motherboard design, PCB design including schematic capture, stackup and circuit board layout - 5+ years of experience in firmware integration with factory software
