Job Summary

Amazon LEO is an initiative to increase global broadband access through a constellation of 3236 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.

As an Antenna Systems Engineer supporting the development test and design of antenna and RF Front-End you will design integrate and characterize antennas and arrays across multiple domains (phased arrays reflectors aperture antennas and other relevant topologies). You will own ADC-to-antenna RF performance collaborating with RF systems and calibration teams to deliver high-performance RF systems and links for both space and ground segments.

Youll split your time between EM design tools RF system analysis and lab validation working on high volume antenna design from concept to deployment.

Key job responsibilities
- Design and optimize antenna and array architectures (element selection lattice feeding networks beam-forming strategies) to meet RF system goals.
- Own end-to-end RF performance from ADC/DAC through RF front-end to antenna radiation working closely with RFIC PA/LNA and system teams.
- Use EM and RF design tools (e.g. HFSS CST AWR or similar) to simulate element/array performance mutual coupling scan loss and pattern characteristics.
- Collaborate with calibration software DSP ASIC and validation teams to define system strategies (array calibration beam equalization phase/amplitude error mitigation IFFT gains and more) and measure on-bench and in-chamber performance.
- Define and maintain antenna specifications and requirements at the module aperture and system level.
- Support prototype builds bring-up and test campaigns for active antennas including chamber testing and over-the-air validation.
- Provide DFM and DFT feedback for antenna boards modules and test fixtures.
- Write design reports test summaries and present results to leadership and cross-functional partners.
- Develop and deploy code to support testing simulation and validation of antenna systems.

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.

- BS degree in electrical engineering or equivalent
- 5 years of experience of research and/or development in antenna design
- Fluency in Matlab Python or C
- Fluency with one of the mainstream antenna simulation tools (CST HFSS)

- Masters degree in electrical engineering or equivalent
- Strong foundations in RF Systems
- 1 year of design experience RF building blocks such as filters hybrids combiners
- Experience with active RF circuits and front-end design
- Experience in phased array development
