Job Description
As System Engineering Lead, you will drive the technical direction for our next-generation wired networking hardware. You will work with our Product team to align business requirements and industrial design with cost, manufacturability, and technical feasibility constraints. You"ll collaborate with electrical engineers owning different hardware sub-systems (networking ASICs, Ethernet PHYs, PoE controllers, power, and SFP module interfaces) and ensure their successful integration into the overall system. Working closely with mechanical engineers, you"ll optimize component placement, thermal management, and reliability requirements for rack-mount and desktop form factors. You"ll also partner with our software teams to ensure hardware capabilities are fully accessible to customers through simple setup and management interfaces.
Key job responsibilities
In this role, you will:
- Define hardware system architecture and technical requirements for multi-gigabit Ethernet switches, high-port-count PoE PSEs, and wired router/gateway products across rack-mount and desktop form factors
- Drive hardware platform decisions, including selection and integration of networking ASICs, Ethernet PHYs, SFP module interfaces, PoE solutions, power architecture, and thermal management strategy
- Develop and maintain technical documentation across the wired networking product line, including hardware architecture documents, system functional specifications, and performance requirement specifications
- Lead technical design reviews, participate in board bring-up and signal integrity optimization for new designs, and drive resolution of complex system-level issues
- Define design and test strategies to achieve system-level validation requirements, functional certifications (Ethernet, PoE, etc.) and regulatory compliance (EMI/EMC, safety)
- Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership across multiple wired networking programs
- Support manufacturing teams during NPI and the transition to mass production

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
