Architect security-hardened ASIC firmware for Amazon's Leo satellite constellation
Amazon Leo (formerly Project Kuiper) is hiring a senior embedded software engineer to architect security-by-design firmware for its satellite RF systems — ASIC firmware, secure boot, hardware interfaces (I2C/I3C/SPI/UART/USB/JTAG/Ethernet), and threat modeling for systems that must be secure and reliable from launch through de-orbit. It calls for 5+ years of software architecture experience plus deep secure embedded firmware expertise on bare-metal/RTOS systems, GDB debugging on FPGA/prototype chips, and practical penetration-testing/threat-modeling knowledge. Requires US citizen/national/permanent-resident status due to export control. Expect the mock to weigh heavily toward security architecture for embedded/RTOS systems and hardware bring-up under real-time and resource constraints.

- Bare-metal and RTOS firmware development for real-time, low-power, high-reliability systems
- Hardware interface programming (I2C/I3C/SPI/UART/USB/JTAG/Ethernet) and debugging with GDB on FPGA/prototype silicon
- Security reviews and penetration-testing methodology for embedded systems
常见提问方向
Walk through threat-modeling a new piece of satellite hardware from concept to secure bring-up
Design a secure boot chain for a resource-constrained embedded system — what could go wrong
Describe debugging a firmware failure on a prototype chip using GDB/JTAG with no simulator reproduction
How would you balance real-time/power constraints against adding security controls (encryption, auth) in firmware
Explain how you'd run a security review or lightweight pentest on embedded firmware before it ships to hardware you can't patch after deployment
