Amazon Leo is an initiative to increase global broadband access through a constellation of 3,236 satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO). Its mission is to bring fast, affordable broadband to unserved and underserved communities around the world. Amazon Leo will help close the digital divide by delivering fast, affordable broadband to a wide range of customers, including consumers, businesses, government agencies, and other organizations operating in places without reliable connectivity.Export Control Requirement:
Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (i.e., current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum.
As a Manufacturing Engineer for one or more Printed Circuit Board Assemblies (PCBA), you'll be directly responsible for bring engineering designs for complex electronic assemblies to reality. You'll work closely with the Design Engineering and Supplier Manufacturing teams to ensure new designs are optimized for manufacturing while driving improvements in yield, cycle time, and cost for existing hardware. Your expertise will be invaluable in bringing satellite hardware to life.
Come solve the difficult and rewarding engineering challenges in developing a highly reliable, power efficient, performant, low-cost satellite bus and payload. As a Sr. PCBA Manufacturing Engineer, you will work across design engineering, supply-chain, quality, and our manufacturing partners to drive Amazon Leo electrical sub-system and PCBA manufacturing and delivery.
You must have the ability to dive deep on the details to identify, understand and solve difficult technical problems and also utilize a system level approach to prioritize issues for whole program. You use data to drive manufacturability, reliability, and quality objectives in design and development teams.
Key job responsibilities
-Work with the Design Engineering team to provide PCB/PCBA DFM feedback. Identify and escalate PCBA manufacturing challenges early in product development.
-Drive the PCBA Manufacturing Qualification process at the CM. Define manufacturing readiness requirements and lead key milestone reviews to ensure all production readiness deliverables are complete.
-Investigate and develop new manufacturing technology and methodologies to enhance PCBA quality, reliability, throughput, and cost.
-Drive closure of all operational issues during pre-production builds. Work within Operations, Supply Chain, R&D, and Reliability Engineering to implement and optimize manufacturing processes and improve yields for production ramp.
-Investigate failures/defects in production, test, and integration. Identify and mitigate underlying root causes to prevent reoccurrence as part of continuous improvement efforts.
-Identify opportunities for risk reduction and simplification of PCBA manufacturing processes.
-Deliver manufacturing processes capabilities including equipment capability, quality controls, materials characterization, and standardized rework practices.
-Actively monitor the success of products and processes through production ramp. Provide regular status reports of PCBAs progress from design to production.
-Deploy and qualify polymerics (staking, underfill, and conformal coat) equipment for high volume production.
