This is a unique opportunity to innovate and define ground-breaking wireless technology with few legacy constraints. \nThis position will play a critical role in the integration and verification of various HW and SW sub-systems as a part of system integration and link bring-up and verification. As a part of this effort you will develop custom HW, custom SW and automation solutions for link bring-up and verification to ensure the system and link between the Satellite and ground is operating as per the design requirements. You will also be developing advanced proof of concept HW/SW systems to improve the performance and reliability of the Amazon Leo network. In particular this role will be responsible for using concepts from digital signal processing and wireless communications to develop novel solutions for achieving an ultra-high performance LEO network.\nExport Control Requirement:\nDue 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.\nKey job responsibilities\nWork closely with implementation teams to evaluate and simulate expected system level performance and provide quick feedback on potential improvements\nWork with the PHY and Network teams to seamlessly integrate the link-layer within the stack.\nIntegrate the various link-layers working closely with implementation teams.\nVerify link budget and RF line-ups in RF and IF configurations.\nCreate time synchronized setups with signal generators / spectrum analyzers and use these to verify timing budgets.\nArchitect and document time/frequency/space acquisition and tracking algorithms. Understand Doppler pre and post compensation techniques with CFO/SFO in LEO comms systems. Experience with channel emulators is a plus.\nWork with a team to develop novel customized test plans using embedded programing to generate and capture waveforms in real-time. Experience with software defined radios is highly preferred.\nContribute development-test bring up procedures with Linux, Python, bash scripting etc.\nWilling to work in a lab environment and on scripting to change a SW/HW pieces incrementally and understand its effect on payload (via probing RF, IF, clock, channel quality messages) with help of Spec-an, sig-gen, scope, frequency counter, attenuators and other related equipment. About the team 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.\nBasic qualifications\n- Master's degree in Electrical or Communications Engineering or a related field\n- 7+ years of wireless communications systems and implementation experience\n- Experience in embedded wireless systems, or experience in embedded development in C/C++\n- Knowledge of network and web related protocols such as TCP/IP, UDP, IPSEC, HTTP or equivalent\n- Experience in software development, or experience in agile/scrum or related collaborative workflow\n- Experience with RF lab equipment including VNA, power meters, spectrum analyzers, vector signal generators\n- Experience in test setup automation using MATLAB, Python, or Pearl\n- Experience with current and upcoming RF standards in cellular (4G/5G NR), WiMAX, 802.11ad, microwave backhaul, or related broadband wireless standard\n- Knowledge of multiple access systems including OFDMA, TDMA, and CDMA\nPreferred qualifications\n- Experience designing or architecting (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems, or experience in embedded wireless systems\n- Experience leading technical initiatives and key deliverables\n- Ideal candidate has a wireless communication systems or digital signal processing background, a passion for building real-world carrier-grade communication systems, and industry experience developing PHY/MAC layer software targeting embedded multicore processors in C/C++\nAmazon is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of protected veteran status, disability, or other legally protected status.\nOur inclusive culture empowers Amazonians to deliver the best results for our customers.
