TL;DR · DSP and Wireless Systems Engineer, Digital RF Systems

As a DSP and Wireless Systems Engineer at Amazon Kuiper Manufacturing Enterprises LLC in San Diego, you will join the Digital RF Systems team as a senior-level professional responsible for defining DSP architecture and designing simulation models of wireless communication SOC used in Leo phased array systems. Your daily tasks include implementing end-to-end system models, developing algorithms to estimate and correct RF impairments, and optimizing solutions based on low power and cost constraints. You will collaborate with cross-disciplinary teams including ASIC/RFIC designers, firmware/software engineers, and verification specialists to drive chip specifications, develop calibration methods, and validate performance in the lab. Essential skills include experience with wireless DSP/RF systems engineering, knowledge of RF blocks and components, and proficiency in MATLAB, Python, C++, fixed-point modeling, and system simulations. This role requires a deep understanding of current RF standards and communication theory, as well as hands-on experience with lab equipment for chip bring-up and validation.

What you'll do

  • Design and model DSP algorithms such as beamformer, DPD, CFR, digital cancellation schemes.
  • Model RF transceivers impairments and develop compensation algorithms for RF impairment correction.
  • Develop and optimize HW/SW calibration methods for RF SOC and phased array systems.
  • Architect HW and FW partitioning of calibration algorithms to support system constraints.
  • Characterize and enhance RF performance of wireless SOC in lab settings.
  • Involve in chip bring-up activities, optimizing conducted and OTA throughput performances.
  • Collaborate with cross-disciplinary teams to drive key aspects of silicon design validation.

What we're looking for

  • 5+ years of experience in wireless DSP/RF systems engineering for LTE, 5G-NR, WiFi, BLE.
  • In-depth knowledge of low power consumption ASIC design and RF blocks/components.
  • Experience with RF impairment estimation and compensation techniques.
  • Working knowledge of firmware implementation for various DSP algorithms.
  • Proficiency in using lab equipment for chip bring-up and validation.
