Project Kuiper is an initiative to increase global broadband access through a constellation of 3,236 satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO).
Its mission is to bring fast, affordable broadband to unserved and underserved communities around the world. Project Kuiper will help close the digital divide by delivering fast, affordable broadband to a wide range of customers, including consumers, businesses, government agencies, and other organizations operating in places without reliable connectivity.
In this role, you will be bringing that vision to life by designing, developing and testing the embedded security systems software that provides the secured communications between the satellites to customer-terminals and the ground-based internet gateways.
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.
Key job responsibilities
- In this role, you will drive the design, development, and operation of a variety of key embedded security capabilities for each satellite throughout its lifetime from launch to de-orbit.
- Own unique embedded software functions through design, implementation (in RUST, C, C++ or other), test, and integration in an embedded Linux or real-time operating system (RTOS) environment.
- Write software to interact with devices / electronics using I2C, SPI, CAN, UART etc.
- Work closely with hardware teams to support board design, bring-up, and verification, as well as integration and test.
- Follow best practices in high reliability embedded software development to ensure high levels of satellite security and reliability.
