About the role

This role involves RF Comms Systems Integration and Test Engineering, where you will work on defining and implementing advanced wireless solutions for Amazon Leo satellites. The role requires deep involvement in system integration and test of next-generation satellite communication systems.

Responsibilities

  • Architect, document, and execute 3GPP based testing for satellite to ground networks.
  • Work with vendors to define equipment requirements to achieve 3GPP conformance testing.
  • Adapt test plans daily based on capabilities of hardware/software delivered by development teams.
  • Collaborate across disciplines including PHY algorithms, RF design, digital beamforming and antenna, MAC, and firmware teams to ensure seamless integration and best-in-class wireless performance.
  • Understand and test Doppler pre and post compensation techniques with CFO/SFO in LEO communications systems in a laboratory environment for 3GPP.
  • Experience with wireless synchronization and signal generators/spectrum analyzers to verify that time/frequency requirements are being met.
  • Experience, knowledge, and skills on wireless system design, integration, bring up, and debug of wireless PHY and RF systems on SoC platforms.
  • Strong understanding of OFDM and MIMO-based wireless systems across both baseband and RF domains, with a solid foundation in related communication theory and signal processing.
  • Work in a lab environment and stay in front of the setups for debugging with reference equipment.
  • Contribute development-test bring-up procedures with Linux, Python, bash scripting etc.
  • Experience with wireless system design, integration, bring up, and debug of wireless PHY and RF systems on SoC platforms.
  • Experience with wireless synchronization and parameter sensing techniques such as ranging/positioning based on signaling as well as low-power design expertise.
  • Knowledge of IP, UDP, TCP, HTTP protocols and analysis tools such as Wireshark.
  • Experience with current software development processes and tools including Agile, TDD, BDD, CI, Git.
  • Implementation experience with wireless synchronization and parameter sensing techniques such as ranging/positioning based on signaling as well as low-power design expertise.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field, or equivalent experience. 5+ years professional experience working in L1/L2 or beamforming.
