Software Development Engineer II, Project Kuiper

Project Kuiper is Amazon's ambitious initiative to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites aimed at providing high-speed broadband connectivity to underserved communities worldwide. As a Software Development Engineer II in the CICD Team, you'll be instrumental in building and developing a central test infrastructure service that supports Hardware in the Loop (HIL) testing. This role combines cloud architecture, distributed systems, and embedded software expertise.

You'll be working with cutting-edge technology, designing and implementing scalable backend services that support satellite software distribution and testing. The position requires expertise in AWS services, container management, and either Python or GoLang programming. You'll collaborate with cross-functional teams, particularly embedded software teams, to ensure smooth integration with low-level systems.

This is an exciting opportunity to join Amazon's space technology division and work on technology that will literally impact the world by bringing internet connectivity to unserved communities. The role offers competitive compensation ranging from $129,300 to $223,600 based on location and experience, plus Amazon's comprehensive benefits package.

The position requires strong technical skills in cloud architecture, distributed systems, and software development, combined with the ability to work in an ambiguous environment and deliver results. As this is part of Project Kuiper, which falls under export control regulations, candidates must have appropriate U.S. person status.

If you're passionate about space technology, distributed systems, and want to work on a project that combines cutting-edge technology with global impact, this role offers an exceptional opportunity to be part of Amazon's next big innovation in space technology.
