Description

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.
