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, and we’ve designed the system with the capacity, flexibility, and performance to serve a wide range of customers, from individual households to schools, hospitals, businesses, government agencies, and other organizations operating in locations without reliable connectivity.
As a Project Kuiper Manufacturing Test Engineer you will own the execution of test campaigns for sub-assemblies to ensure readiness for satellite integration. You will work with multiple engineering and manufacturing teams to specify test equipment requirements, develop and execute test plans to support development and production test initiatives. Your focus will be in optimization of test processes to enable Project Kuiper production ramp plans.
This is a fast-paced, intellectually challenging opportunity to work with thought leaders in multiple technology areas. You’ll have relentlessly high standards for yourself and everyone you work with, and you’ll be constantly looking for ways to improve. We want individuals who want to reach beyond what is possible today. Everyone on the team needs to be entrepreneurial, wear many hats and work in a highly collaborative environment.
Key job responsibilities
* This is a 2nd shift position working Mon-Fri 4:00pm shift start.
* Experience with test automation frameworks like TestStand, Robot Framework, or similar tools for creating and managing automated test sequences.
* Ability to convert test plans and hardware specifications into automated scripts that execute test cases, record results, and handle exceptions.
* Experience with designing test cases for functional, performance, and stress testing in hardware systems.
* Strong debugging skills for identifying issues in both the test scripts and hardware setups.
* Familiarity with test equipment error logs, signal analysis, and troubleshooting hardware and software integration problems.
* Understanding of hardware communication protocols (e.g., SPI, I2C, RS232, Ethernet) to interface with test equipment or devices under test (DUT).
* Proficiency in developing manufacturing process controls to ensure product quality and consistency, including defining key process parameters, implementing statistical process control (SPC) methods, and integrating mistake-proofing (poka-yoke) techniques.
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.
