There have been 25 jobs posted with the title of Embedded Software Dev Engineer all time at Amazon.Location: Redmond, WA
Estimated salary: $169,050
Range: $143,700 - $194,400
Description
Project Kuiper is building a constellation of 3,236 satellites to deliver broadband from space. Our direct-to-device (D2D) program takes it further, connecting everyday phones and devices directly to satellites. Come build it.We're looking for an engineer who wants to build software that controls phased-array antennas on satellites, tested in labs and deployed to orbit. You'll build tools that help the team move fast including test automation that validates antenna calibration, CI/CD pipelines that build and sign firmware images, and simulation environments that let us catch bugs before hardware exists. Some days you'll be writing Python to orchestrate factory test stations. Other days you'll be debugging issues related to boot sequences. You don't need satellite experience to start. You need to be a strong engineer who figures things out, builds things that work, and enjoys being the person who makes the rest of the team more productive.
We're a small, growing team inside Amazon's LEO program. We own the software layer for the satellite antenna payload, the actors, services, and infrastructure that make beam-forming, calibration, and hardware control actually work. You'll work alongside embedded software engineers, SDEs, RF engineers, and hardware teams, and you'll have real ownership from day one. The team is early enough that your decisions will shape how we build and test for years. If you want high-impact work on one of Amazon's most ambitious technical programs, come join us
