TL;DR · HW Test Development Engineer

As a HW Test Development Engineer, Amazon LEO, you will join the payload team to design, develop, and implement comprehensive test solutions for satellite payload phased array antenna hardware. You will architect and operate hardware test systems at the bring-up, sub-system, and system levels while collaborating with design engineers to define requirements and acceptance criteria. Your daily work involves building quantitative models for coverage and reliability, performing root cause analysis on failures, and optimizing measurement accuracy. The role requires expertise in analog and digital hardware systems, power design, and automated lab test development. You will utilize Python, Java, Bash, or Perl for scripting alongside standard electronics test equipment like oscilloscopes and function generators. This position focuses on solving complex verification challenges to ensure antenna hardware meets rigorous performance specifications for space applications.

What you'll do

  • Architect, design, build, and operate hardware test systems for satellite hardware verification at bring-up, sub-system, and system levels.
  • Define test requirements and acceptance criteria in collaboration with design engineers.
  • Build quantitative models for test coverage, reliability, and throughput to inform design trade studies.
  • Analyze test data and generate comprehensive reports including recommendations for improvement.
  • Perform root cause analysis on test failures and lead corrective actions for test systems.
  • Optimize test coverage, reduce testing time, and improve measurement accuracy for phased array antenna hardware.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or equivalent.
  • Master's degree in electrical engineering or equivalent (preferred).
  • 5+ years of experience in hardware design and validation of components, subsystems, and systems.
  • 3+ years of experience with programming or scripting languages such as Python, Java, Bash, or Perl.
  • Experience with test plan development, building test bench infrastructure, and verifying designs.
  • Experience designing and planning test conditions, scripts, and data sets to ensure coverage.
  • Experience using common electronics test equipment like oscilloscopes, power supplies, and function generators.
  • 1+ years of experience with signal and/or power integrity (preferred).
  • Must be a U.S. citizen, national, permanent resident, or granted asylum for export control compliance.
