Description

Project Kuiper is a new initiative to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites that will provide low-latency, high-speed broadband connectivity to unserved and underserved communities around the world.

Come join us at Amazon!

The Role:

Create FPGA solutions to support Amazon Project Kuiper’s satellite communication system. This is a unique opportunity to define a new system with few legacy constraints. The Sr. FPGA design engineer will work with systems teams to define/develop/implement/test/release FPGA based solutions to enable Project Kuiper. This will focus on creating digital designs for networking functions using the latest generations of FPGA technologies and modern FPGA design processes and tools.

In this role you will:

• Lead ASIC-to-FPGA conversion projects, including RTL modification and optimization

• Architect and implement multi-FPGA partitioning solutions

• Design and debug high-speed interfaces including Ethernet, PCIe, and DDR

• Debug hardware issues using logic analyzers and oscilloscopes

• Create and release FPGAs through the development phases of uArchitecture-RTL Design-Physical Implementation-Timing Closure–Simulation Validation– Lab Based Silicon Validation

• Collaborate with network communication system architects to define and design/implement/test/release/support networking functions targeted to FPGA technology

• Collaborate with Digital Communications/RF/Signal Processing system architects and design engineers to implement digital logic functions in FPGA technology

• Collaborate with system architects and design engineers to implement digital logic functions in FPGA prototypes to validate/tradeoff architecture & design alternatives

• Collaborate with systems architects, HW engineering design teams & FW/SW design teams to bring up and test systems combining FPGA, firmware, RF, and Networking functions.

• Drive trade-off analysis to benefit customer experience and optimization of target technology resources for cost/size/power/performance/features

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.

• 7+ years in FPGA design & implementation

• Proficiency in Verilog or SystemVerilog

• Experience with at least one major FPGA development tool (e.g., Xilinx Vivado, Intel Quartus)

• Demonstrated ability to design and implement digital logic systems using FPGAs

• Familiarity with timing analysis and constraints

• Basic understanding of high-speed interfaces (e.g., PCIe, DDR)

• Experience with hardware debugging tools (e.g., logic analyzers, oscilloscopes)

Preferred Qualifications

• Record of success in the design, test, delivery, support of multiple FPGAs shipping to customers

• Experience with uArchitecture, RTL coding, FPGA optimization for timing & power, simulation, and validation

• Experience with HLS

• Experience with Computer Networking Systems from Layer2 to Layer4

• Experience with TCP/IP Systems

• Experience with current and upcoming RF standards in cellular (4G/5G), WiMAX, 802.11ad, microwave backhaul, DVB-S2 / DVB-C, or similar broadband wireless standards
