Embedded Software Development Engineer, Project Kuiper, Kuiper MAC
Amazon, Redmond, Washington, United States, 98052
Join Our Kuiper Mac Software Team
Project Kuiper is Amazon's low Earth orbit satellite broadband network. Its mission is to deliver fast, reliable internet to customers and communities around the world. Join our Kuiper MAC Software team to revolutionize global connectivity through satellite communications. As a key innovator, you'll develop mission-critical embedded firmware that powers our ground terminal networks and satellite systems, directly impacting millions of users worldwide. We're looking for a talented software engineer to architect and optimize Media Access Control (MAC) layer solutions for our next-generation satellite communication platform. You'll work at the intersection of space technology and wireless communications, leveraging your expertise in: Bare-metal embedded systems Embedded Linux development Modern systems programming (Rust/C) This role offers a unique opportunity to shape the future of satellite communications while working with a diverse team of industry experts. Your code won't just run on Earth - it will operate in space, helping bridge the digital divide and connect the unconnected. The Role Design and implement MAC layer protocols for wireless communication systems Develop efficient real-time software for resource-constrained embedded platforms Optimize protocol performance for latency-sensitive applications Interface with PHY layer implementations and higher network stack components Collaborate with hardware teams for efficient hardware/software integration Develop automated testing frameworks for protocol validation A Day In The Life Come work at Amazon! We need people who want to join an ambitious program that continues to push the state of the art in space-based systems design. Come help us solve the difficult and rewarding development challenges in building highly reliable, power efficient and low-cost satellite avionics! About the Team Our team tackles many critical satellite functions including power management, hardware interfaces, command & telemetry, and autonomous control. We are looking for an outstanding software engineer to participate in all phases of software development from requirements through implementation and test to operations.
