Embedded Software Engineer, Leo MAC
Overview
In this role you will design, develop, and bring up Kuiper-MAC firmware for embedded ground and satellite systems. You will work within a cross-functional team to meet multi-dimensional performance targets and validate end-to-end use cases. You will optimize, debug, and test FW in RTOS or bare-metal environments, shaping services and interfaces across FW subsystems. This is an opportunity to contribute to a high-impact space-based broadband project at Amazon and help millions stay connected.
