About this role
Electro-Optical Test Architect, Amazon Leo Redmond, Washington, USA 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. You will join a multi-discipline team responsible for development for optical satellites communication system. You will be responsible for the design, build, and verification of custom electro-mechanical optical test stations integrated into the manufacturing flow, supporting design validation testing (DVT), end-to-end (E2E) system verification, and root cause analysis (RCA) of optical and opto-mechanical failures. Key job responsibilities * Design, build, and qualify electro-mechanical optical test stations for manufacturing-line integration, supporting build, test, and volume production of optical intersatellite link systems. * Develop and execute end-to-end (E2E) test architectures that simulate operational environments for electro-optical systems, validating performance across thermal cycling (TC) and thermal vacuum (TVAC) profiles. * Define and implement design validation test (DVT) plans for optical and opto-mechanical assemblies, ensuring structural and optical stability under environmental stress. * Conduct optical metrology including wavefront error, boresight alignment, radiometric calibration, and pointing accuracy during thermal transitions. * Leverage PCBA-level electrical knowledge to identify and diagnose failures that originate at the board level, including connector intermittencies, solder joint reliability issues, signal degradation, and power integrity anomalies that impact optical system performance. * Lead root cause analysis (RCA) for opto-mechanical and electrical failures, including performance degradation, thermal drift, and structural anomalies identified during environmental stress testing and manufacturing screening. * Drive design corrective actions and feed
