Description
LEO is an initiative to increase global broadband access through a constellation of 3,236 satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO). Its mission is to bring fast, affordable broadband to unserved and underserved communities around the world. LEO will help close the digital divide by delivering fast, affordable broadband to a wide range of customers, including consumers, businesses, government agencies, and other organizations operating in places without reliable connectivity.
This is an individual contributor role for someone who thrives on ambiguous technical problems, builds tools that make other engineers more productive, and wants direct impact on how satellite communication systems go from prototype to production.
In this role, you will build the tooling, automation, and infrastructure that enables the team to develop, test, and release embedded software at scale. You'll own CI/CD pipelines for embedded image builds, factory test stations, simulation frameworks, and cloud-based test infrastructure. Your work directly impacts how fast the team can iterate and how reliably we can ship software to hardware. This is an ideal role for a software engineer who enjoys building developer productivity tools, test automation, and infrastructure — and wants to do it in a high-impact hardware program
About the team - The Amazon LEO Antenna SW Team develops software for the satellite payload antenna systems. We build the services, actors, and infrastructure that control antenna hardware — from VCXO clock disciplining to beamforming to factory calibration. We work hand in hand with hardware, RF, and systems engineering teams to bring antenna systems from prototype to orbit.
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.
Key job responsibilities
Do you want to put code in space? Have you wanted an opportunity to develop the core wireless and networking for an advanced global telecom service spanning both space and terrestrial networks? Have you wondered what it takes to solve a multi-dimentional resource allocation problem at global scale?
Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for embedded image builds, signing, and deployment
- Develop factory test station software (calibration, BIST, power-on)
- Create simulation and automated test frameworks for hardware validation
- Build cloud-based infrastructure for test orchestration and result analysis
- Improve developer workflows — build times, test feedback loops, release processes
About the team
At Amazon Leo, we believe that our differences makes us stronger. We are committed to Amazon’s culture of inclusion ingrained in our Leadership Principles, which encourages team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious, and earn trust. We want to foster a culture of collaboration, delivering results and work/life balance.
