Amazon Jobs in California

Amazon Leo Satellite Initiative

Amazon Leo is an 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.

The Role

Be part of Amazon Leo's ASIC team responsible for defining and implementing the digital chip SOCs for communications via Low Earth Orbit satellites and Amazon gateways. This is a unique opportunity to define a groundbreaking wireless solution with few legacy constraints. The team works with customer requirements and wireless system teams to define modems, high-speed interfaces, embedded processors, and DSP solutions in the advanced technology nodes.

You will have the responsibility to develop back-end strategies and drive implementation for a set of communications chips that enable 5G-like communication between space and ground.

Key Job

Responsibilities

As the physical implementation engineer you will set up the flow for both logic and physical synthesis flow for various technology nodes.

• Work with the ASIC design and DFT teams to understand the design and help review or create timing constraints.
• Check the RTL design for clean synthesis run, perform STA and LEC on netlist.
• Work with RFIC teams to make sure the top level integration of analog blocks are done properly and correct by construction, including formal connectivity checks.
• Work with P&R teams to ensure a smooth hand off of netlists, ensure the timely execution of the P&R responsibilities by that team.

Participate in flow reviews of all the blocks with the P&R team to ensure that they achieve the best PPA for all blocks.
