Project Kuiper 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 member of Kuiper MAC-SW, you will be responsible for delivering embedded FW code running on ground networks on customer terminals and on satellites. Come and join the innovative and unique wireless project Kuiper. You would be focused on designing, developing and testing complete Kuiper-MAC FW. You will be a key member of a cross functional team of innovators, working on unique wireless technology that will enable millions of people to stay connected. The Role - Design, develop, integrate and bring up Kuiper-MAC FW components/drivers in a real-time embedded environment - Working in a cross-functional environment to define multi-dimensional performance requirements (e.g., MIPs, memory BW) - Make performance and optimization trade-offs to meet end-to-end use case requirement - Build component use-cases/test-cases and debug your code in Kuiper embedded environment - Profile and execute the code on RTOS and/or bare-metal embedded environment - Contribute in defining services and functionalities delivered by your FW-subsystems - Define, document, test and debug your FW-HW interfaces - Familiarity with SW/FW best practices (e.g., clean architecture, refactoring, …)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.BASIC QUALIFICATIONS- 2+ years of non-internship professional software development experience- 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience- Experience programming with at least one software programming language ...

Project Kuiper 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.Key job responsibilitiesKey job responsibilitiesIn this role, you will drive the design, development, and operation of a variety of key functions such as telemetry, power control, hardware interfaces, and autonomous capabilities for each satellite throughout its lifetime – from launch to de-orbit.In this role, you will:• Own unique software functions through design, implementation (in python, C++, C# or other), test, and integration in an Linux or real-time operating system (RTOS) environment.• Write software to interact with devices/electronics using I2C, I3C, SPI, RS-422, RS-485, Ethernet, etc. communications.• Work closely with silicon and hardware teams to support custom silicon chip and board design, bring-up, and verification, as well as integration and test.• Follow best practices in high reliability embedded software development to ensure high levels of reliability and availability.• Perform embedded software optimization for faster execution to reduce production test costs. Implement design for manufacturability (DFM) principles to enable scalable and efficient testability.• Work with production test engineers to successfully integrate and optimize embedded software into the production test environment.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.A day in the lifeCome work at Amazon! We need people who want to join an ambitious program that continues to push the state of the art in space-based systems design. Come help us solve the difficult and rewarding development challenges in building highly reliable, power efficient and low-cost satellite avionics and communication systems payload!About the teamOur team tackles many critical satellite payload functions including payload power management, hardware interfaces, command & telemetry, operational state management, thermal management, resiliency and redundancy, hardware and software integration. We are looking for a software engineer to participate in all phases of software development from requirements through implementation and test to operations.BASIC QUALIFICATIONS- 5+ years of non-internship professional software development experience- 5+ years of programming with at least one software programming language experience- 5+ years of leading design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience- Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team ...
