Overview
Sr Software I&T Engineer, KGS Integrated Systems Solutions at Amazon. Project Kuiper is an initiative within Amazon that aims to revolutionize global connectivity through the development of a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellation. The Kuiper Government Solutions (KGS) Engineering organization addresses the needs of targeted government and international customers with scalable, space- and terrestrial-based solutions. The Software Integration & Test (I&T) engineer will work with a cross-disciplinary team to design, integrate, and test space-based and terrestrial applications, ensuring the system exceeds customer expectations. The Software I&T Engineer will develop architecture and execute the design, build, and validation of test systems for complex systems and subsystems. Responsibilities include developing software test procedures, test software, test scripts, APIs, and automation to enable test and verification at multiple product levels, including satellite bus, RF payloads, optical payloads, ground terminals, or user terminals. The role supports integration, test, verification, and validation across these elements in a fast-paced environment. The candidate will collaborate with Kuiper Government Solutions (KGS) teams and partner organizations, and will be expected to be responsive, flexible, innovative, and effective in a collaborative, dynamic setting. Security clearance TS/SCI is required (US Citizenship). Key Responsibilities
Provide Software Integration and Test leadership for one or more of the following: satellite bus software, RF payload software, optical payloads software, custom ground terminals software, or custom user terminals software. Provide test software design expertise for the above products and services. Specify and develop end-to-end payload or sub-system integration and test plans and procedures to validate performance against requirements. Create test algorithms, test scripts, automation, and calibration routines for test systems. Analyze software test data and collaborate cross-functionally to evaluate product performance and suggest improvements. Architect, design, and validate test software for support equipment enabling test execution and verification. Prepare reports documenting test results, coverage, performance, and KPI metrics; communicate issues with developers and managers. Manage and track test anomalies, defects, and bugs; perform debugging and continuous improvement in a high-rate production environment. Basic Qualifications
