Resumo da oferta

Amazon Leo seeks a Senior Aerospace Hardware Engineer to own satellite avionics hardware from architecture through production ramp. You will lead cross-functional teams, drive circuit design, and set the bar for design quality across PCB layouts and assemblies.

You will define verification strategies, lead bring-up, and ensure hardware integration with systems, firmware, and manufacturing. Expect a fast-paced, high-reliability environment delivering space-grade hardware.

Qualificações

• Experience in developing functional specifications, design verification plans and functional test procedures.
• 5+ years of hardware development across full lifecycle (concept through production at scale).
• Experience with PCB design and debug, including processors, FPGAs, power supplies, and sensors.
• Experience with complex board designs (high-speed interfaces, power electronics, or high-reliability systems).
• Experience using ECAD tools for schematic capture and PCB layout.
• Experience driving hardware through bring-up, validation, and integration.
• Master's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or equivalent.
• 7+ years of hardware lifecycle experience in aerospace, automotive, or similar high-reliability environments.
• Experience with satellite, avionics, or vehicle control systems.
• Experience with system integration into complex electromechanical assemblies or enclosures.
• Experience with radiation-tolerant design or qualification for harsh environments.
• Experience developing test systems or automation (e.g., Python, C/C++).
• Experience with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) or similar system-level test methodologies.
• Experience with low-level firmware development and hardware/software integration.

Responsabilidades

• Own end-to-end delivery of satellite avionics subsystems, from architecture and requirements through production ramp, in partnership with peer engineers.
• Lead system and subsystem architecture, translating mission requirements into manufacturable hardware designs.
• Drive circuit design, analysis, and ECAD schematic capture to meet performance and reliability targets.
• Lead hardware design reviews (architecture, schematic, PCB layout) and set the technical bar for design quality.
• Develop and execute bring-up, verification, and qualification test strategies.
• Lead debugging and root cause resolution across development, qualification, and production, working closely with design and test engineers.
• Establish requirements, traceability, and verification frameworks for hardware subsystems.
• Lead production readiness and ramp, including test strategy, yield improvement, and issue resolution.
• Influence cross-functional teams (systems, firmware, manufacturing, test, suppliers) to deliver program milestones.
• Act as a technical leader, raising engineering standards and developing other engineers.
