As an experienced embedded software engineer with a focus on security, you will join the Amazon Kuiper Manufacturing Enterprises LLC team as part of their mission to develop secure and mission-critical firmware for satellite systems. Your role involves architecting and developing ASIC firmware that controls RF communication subsystems, ensuring robust boot operations, low-level register control, and real-time embedded software capabilities. You will collaborate closely with hardware design teams to integrate new hardware securely from concept through verification, while also driving security architecture by identifying vulnerabilities and implementing defensive measures. Key skills include expertise in C/C++, Python, or Java, experience with debugging tools like GDB, and knowledge of secure communications protocols and encryption implementations. This role demands deep understanding of secure embedded firmware development for bare-metal or RTOS-based systems, ensuring high reliability and security under resource constraints.
