TL;DR · Satellite Design Verification Engineer

Satellite Design Verification Engineer, Amazon Leo joins a sub-team responsible for defining and implementing digital chip SOCs for communication via Low Earth Orbit satellites and gateways. This role focuses on the development of modems, high-speed interfaces, embedded processors, and DSP solutions using latest CMOS generation technologies. The engineer will implement state-of-the-art verification environments for modem IP and subsystems to test devices against reference Matlab or C models. Daily responsibilities include developing detailed test plans, running regressions, collecting coverage matrices, and debugging system-level communication scenarios in both pre-silicon and post-silicon environments. Key technical requirements include proficiency in UVM, SystemC, DPI-C, and scripting languages. The role addresses the challenge of creating groundbreaking wireless solutions for satellite communications while managing automated triage systems to report issues to stakeholders within a complex hardware development framework.

What you'll do

  • Implement a state-of-the-art verification environment for modem IP and subsystems.
  • Test the device under test against reference Matlab and C models.
  • Develop detailed test plans and write tests to collect coverage matrices.
  • Debug system-level communication scenarios in both pre-silicon and post-silicon environments.
  • Perform system-level verification using test benches constructed with UVM, SystemC, and DPI-C.
  • Build highly automated environments to triage regression failures and report issues to stakeholders.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
  • 2+ years of experience with UVM, C, SystemC, and scripting.
  • 5+ years of experience in verification, preferably in communication systems.
  • Must be a U.S. citizen, national, permanent resident, or granted asylum/refugee status for export control compliance.
  • Master's or Ph.D. degree in Electrical or Communications Engineering (preferred).
  • 7+ years in digital verification, preferably in communication systems (preferred).
  • Experience with Matlab, modem design verification, and formal verification techniques (preferred).
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills (preferred).
