Description Amazon 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. Amazon 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. As an Wireless Test Architect you will engage with an experienced cross-disciplinary team to develop new, advanced test systems for our Digital Phased Array systems, integrating them with our existing test infrastructure. We have near field spherical scanners, robotic manipulators and advanced RF optics that account for some of the fastest antenna characterization systems in the world, but we need to keep improving test coverage, test accuracy and repeatability, and test new features. Although Amazon LEO's communication system typically relied on sat-com concepts and test methods (DVT, ATP and QTP test campaigns and cycles), we look to the 3GPP industry standards and testing practices to adopt those learnings and build upon them. Key job responsibilities * design a DVT and QTP campaign that is adequately trimmed for the devices, campaign goals and resources available * Given a campaign goal, design an OTA test that can be performed with available test infrastructure * drive strategy of test, custom instrumentation and infrastructure buildup for new wireless tests for DVT, QTP and ATP for all Payload and CT products 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. Basic Qualifications - Experience in developing functional specifications, design verification plans and functional test procedures - Master's degree in Electrical/Communications Engineering, or 8+ years of analog or RF layout design experience - Knowledge of antenna fundamental and radiation theory EM simulation experience - Strong understanding of RF and Microwave Components design, Frontend design, Radio Architecture - Strong understanding of Mixed Signal components, Digital Modulations and OFDM, Signal Theory - 4+ yr of industrial experience driving the test strategy for 5G NR FR1 and FR2, WiFi 6 and 7 products - 5+ yr experience in test automation Preferred Qualifications - Experience working with interdisciplinary teams to execute product design from concept to production - Experience with the project management of technical projects - Experience with network troubleshooting tools (telnet, test-netconnection, tracert, tracetcp, iperf, ntttcp, dig, and packet capture tools), or experience in Linux and Networking protocols and experience in Network protocols like DNS/DHCP/TCP - Track record of designing and implementing automated testing solutions for wireless platforms, and test frameworks. - Strong hands-on experience with radio frequency measurement devices, such as VSA, VSG, and wireless connectivity testing systems. Knowledge of platforms like CMW500 or similar testing solutions is desirable.

About the Company

So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

It’s Always Day 1
At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

Our Leadership Principles
Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
