Description For Firmware Embedded Engineer, MPSW

Project Kuiper is an innovative initiative by Amazon to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites that will provide low-latency, high-speed broadband connectivity to unserved and underserved communities worldwide. As a Firmware Embedded Engineer in the Kuiper MAC-SW team, you'll be responsible for developing embedded firmware code for ground networks, customer terminals, and satellites.

The role involves working in a cross-functional environment to define multi-dimensional performance requirements, make optimization trade-offs, and build component test cases. You'll be programming in a real-time embedded environment, working with RTOS and bare-metal systems, while following software/firmware best practices.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Designing, developing, and testing complete Kuiper-MAC firmware
  • Defining and documenting firmware-hardware interfaces
  • Performance optimization and debugging in embedded environments
  • Contributing to service definitions and functionality delivery

The position offers competitive compensation ranging from $129,300 to $223,600 per year based on geographic location, plus equity and comprehensive benefits. This is an excellent opportunity to join Amazon's innovative space technology initiative and work on unique wireless technology that will impact millions of lives.
