Signal Integrity​/Power Integrity Engineer, Project Kuiper

Project Kuiper Signal/Power Integrity Engineer

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 solve the difficult and rewarding electrical engineering challenges in developing a highly reliable, power efficient, performant, low cost satellite bus and payload.

Key job responsibilities

As a Signal/Power Integrity Engineer, you will be responsible for defining and developing Signal and Power Integrity test methodologies, participating in design reviews, performing measurements and simulations, providing reports, collaborating with other engineers to develop solutions, and working to ensure a high technical bar across Kuiper.

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 life

Engineers on the Signal/Power Integrity (SI/PI) team work across the entire Kuiper satellite and customer terminal systems, providing design inputs, developing requirements, establishing best practices, performing signal/power integrity system analysis, and working with multidisciplinary teams to make design improvements.

About the team

The SI/PI team interacts broadly across the entire Kuiper project to deliver electrical designs. You will have the opportunity to work with multiple technical teams at Amazon in different locations. You should be comfortable with a high degree of ambiguity and relish the idea of solving problems that haven't been solved at scale before. Along the way, we guarantee that you will learn a lot, have fun and make a positive impact on millions of people.
