Project Kuiper Is An Initiative To Launch A Constellation Of Satellites Into Low Orbit To Provide Low-Latency Broadband To Underserved Communities Around The World. Kuiper Is An Ambitious Project That Relies On Completely New Satellite Designs With All The Ground-Based Capabilities Needed To Operate A Large Constellation And Provide High-Performance Services To End Users. Since The Constellation Has Several Thousand Satellites Serving Millions Of Customers, The Systems Are Designed To Be Highly Autonomous, Self-Adapting To The Environment And Able To Repair In Case Of Problems. Most New Equipment And Software Is Developed And Built Within Our Engineering And Manufacturing Teams. Guidance, Navigation, And Control (GNC) Designs The Constellation For Good Space Coverage And Security And Develops The Systems That Control And Maneuver Each Satellite As They Rise From Injection To Operational Orbits, Integrating Into The Flow Of The Constellation And Maintaining The Station About Its Neighbors. Each Spacecraft Is Ready And Able To Maneuver At Any Time To Avoid Other Satellites Or Space Debris If A Close Pass Is Imminent. The Navigation System Provides Accurate Real-Time Positioning And Supports The Prediction Of The Future Orbital Situation, Taking Into Account Planned Maneuvers And Other Effects. Guidance, Navigation, And Control Also Provide Guidance For Direct Satellite Communication Systems That Require Precise Pointing To Achieve High Performance. <strong>Main Job Duties </strong> As A Guidance, Navigation, And Control Software Engineer, You Will Develop Real-Time Embedded Software That Flies On Satellites; Ground Applications That Predict Orbital Conditions, Monitor Potential Collisions, And Optimize Maneuvers; High Precision Modeling And Simulation Software; And All Kinds Of Infrastructure Needed To Develop And Operate The System. Since The GNC Is The Heart Of The Satellite Flight System, You Are Often Called Upon To Assist With A Wide Range Of Issues That Hinder Satellite Integration And Testing, Manufacturing, And Even Flight Operations. Export Control Requirements: Subject To Applicable Export Control Laws And Regulations, Candidates Must Be United States Citizens Or US Permanent Residents. <strong>?A Day In The Life </strong> This Is An Opportunity To Play An Important Role In The Design Of An Innovative Satellite System With Demanding Performance Requirements. A Large, Integrated Constellation Brings Opportunities For Advanced Capabilities That Require Research And Development. Scale Also Emphasizes Technical Excellence, So Our Tools And Methods, From Conceptualization To Production And All Phases Of Testing, Are State-Of-The-Art, As Well As Satellite And Ground Infrastructure Support. You Will Allocate Time To Work On Well-Defined SW Projects Required By The Program As Scheduled, Prototyping Design Concepts That May Or May Not Be Manufacturable, Participating In Component Level Testing And Satellite Testing, And Assisting With Flight Operations. <strong>?About The Team </strong> Our Team Has Experience With Various Satellite Systems And Many Other Aerial Assets. We Have Strength In Our Mission Bank, Core Disciplines Of Guidance, Navigation, And Control, And Software Development For Flight And Other Systems. We Design, Prototype, Test, Iterate And Learn. Because GNC Is Fundamental To Safe Flight, We Tend To Drive Concepts Of Operations And A Lot Of System-Level Analysis. You'll Find The Kuiper Mission Compelling, So Our Program Has Some Of The Best Engineers In The Business. Our Daily Collaborations With Other Program Teams Provide Constant Opportunities To Discover, Learn And Grow. <strong>?We Are Open For Job Candidates In One Of The Following Locations: </strong> Redmond, WA, United States <strong>?BASIC QUALIFICATIONS </strong> <ul> <li>2+ Years Of Professional Software Development Experience With No Experience</li> <li>2+ Years Of Non-Internship Design Or Architecture (Design Patterns, Reliability, And Scalability) In New And Existing Systems</li> <li>Programming Experience With At Least One Software Programming Language</li> <li>1+ Years Of Experience In At Least One Of Embedded Systems And Avionics, Feedback Control Systems, Or Real-Time Software.</li> <li>Experience With Design Patterns, Data Structures, And Test-Driven Development</li> <li>Experience With Standard, Full Life Cycle, Software Engineering Practices Including Coding Standards, Code Review, Resource Control Management, Design Processes, Testing, And Operations.</li> </ul> <strong>MORE QUALIFICATIONS </strong> <ul> <li>3+ Years Of Full Software Development Lifecycle, Including Coding Standards, Code Review, Resource Management, Build Processes, Testing And Operational Experience</li> <li>You Know Interdisciplinary Development Including Co-Design And Verification Of Hardware, Software, And Algorithms</li> <li>Expertise In Real-Time Operating Systems, Embedded Linux With Real-Time Extensions, Systems Programming, Concurrency And Scheduling.</li> <li>Expertise In Building, Testing And Verifying Real-Time Or Safety-Critical Systems.</li> <li>Experience With Sensors, Actuators, Embedded Automotive Electronics/Avionics, And/Or Control Systems.</li> <li>Experience With Simulation In Different Contexts: Hardware-In-The-Loop, Monte-Carlo, Emulators.</li> <li>Experience Operating Remotely Deployed Systems In Extreme Environments.</li> <li>Experience Supporting The Development Of Infrastructure And Tools For Science And Technology Users.</li> </ul> <h6><strong>Job Benefits:</strong></h6> <ul> <li><strong>Healthcare:</strong> Amazon Often Offers Comprehensive Healthcare Coverage, Including Medical, Dental, And Vision Insurance For Employees And Their Families.</li> <li><strong>Retirement Plans:</strong> The Company Typically Offers Retirement Plans Such As A 401(K) With Matching Company Contributions.</li> <li><strong>Paid Time Off:</strong> Amazon Typically Offers A Mix Of Paid Time Off, Including Time Off, Vacation, And Sick Leave.</li> <li><strong>Stock Options:</strong> Many Employees May Have The Opportunity To Participate In The Company's Stock Options Programs, Allowing Them To Buy Amazon Stock At A Discounted Price.</li> <li><strong>Employee Discounts:</strong> Amazon Employees Often Receive Discounts On Amazon Products And Services.</li> <li><strong>Educational Assistance:</strong> The Company May Offer Educational Assistance Programs To Help Employees Continue Their Education Or Develop New Skills.</li> <li><strong>Professional Development:</strong> Amazon Often Emphasizes Opportunities For Professional Growth And Provides Resources For Employees To Improve Their Skills And Advance Within The Company.</li> <li><strong>Maternity And Paternity Leave:</strong> Amazon Typically Offers Maternity And Paternity Leave Benefits To Support Employees Through Major Life Events.</li> <li><strong>Employee Assistance Programs:</strong> These Programs Provide Resources For Employees Facing Personal Or Work-Related Challenges, Such As Counseling Services And Wellness Programs.</li> <li><strong>Flexible Working Options:</strong> Depending On Your Role And Location, Amazon May Offer Flexible Working Arrangements, Including Remote Work Or Flexible Hours.</li> <li><strong>Employee Recognition:</strong> Amazon Often Recognizes And Rewards Outstanding Employee Performance Through Various Recognition Programs.</li> <li><strong>Transportation Benefits:</strong> Some Locations May Offer Transportation Benefits, Such As Public Transportation Or Parking Subsidies.</li> </ul>
