Amazon Sustaining Electrical Engineer Project Kuiper 

United States, Washington, Redmond 

17936688

As a Sustaining Electrical Engineer you will engage with an experienced cross-disciplinary staff to sustain and improve the design of critical satellite hardware. You will work closely with an internal inter-disciplinary team, and outside partners to drive key aspects of product definition, execution and test. You must be responsive, flexible and able to succeed within an open collaborative peer environment.You will work within the RF Hardware Engineering team to debug failures at the CM and at Kuiper. This will be a hands-on position to support all design validation, manufacturing test and reliability aspects of design, development; including alternate source component selection and qualification. You will drive system validation activities for new products development, to implement design changes for sustaining products, to resolve technical issues for manufacturing process, and to perform failure analysis for Acceptance Test (ATP) failed units.In this role, you will:
• Debug failing PCBAs in manufacturing and acceptance tests.
• Perform DFM and DFMEA reviews within the RF HW design group, with CM and suppliers.
• Develop system test plans for design validation.
• Define test methodology and test coverage to assure product reliability.
• Monitor quality metrics from design validation manufacturing test, acceptance test (ATP), and reliability.
