Test Automation Engineer, Avionics Test Engineering

Join Project Kuiper at Amazon, an ambitious initiative to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites providing high-speed broadband connectivity to underserved communities worldwide. As a Test Automation Engineer, you'll be at the forefront of satellite system design, verification test, and operations. You'll work with cutting-edge lab equipment and develop automation systems for hardware testing, collaborating with spacecraft design teams and operations specialists.

The role combines technical expertise with practical problem-solving, requiring someone who can thrive in ambiguous situations and tackle unprecedented challenges at scale. You'll be responsible for developing and delivering test systems for avionics subsystems, supporting both development and production testing phases. This includes working with sophisticated equipment like spectrum analyzers, signal generators, and thermal chambers.

Amazon offers competitive compensation ranging from $105,600 to $185,000 based on location, plus equity and comprehensive benefits. This is a unique opportunity to make a positive impact on millions of people while working with top-tier engineers in a fast-paced, innovative environment. The position requires U.S. citizenship or permanent residency due to export control regulations.

You'll be part of a team that designs and delivers test systems for qualifying and acceptance testing of hardware subsystems for flight computers, power delivery, and RF systems on satellite avionics. This role offers continuous learning opportunities and the chance to contribute to a project that's pushing the boundaries of space technology and global connectivity.
