Description
We are building a new device software team in Bangalore to power the next generation of Amazon connected devices. As a wireless software engineer on our new Bangalore device software team, you will bring up new wireless capabilities and build new features. You will collaborate with stakeholders across Alexa Devices and Alexa Cloud teams to define roadmaps, plan requirements, make prioritization trade-offs, and feature development. You will partner with principal engineers to brainstorm solutions, solve problems, and deliver features.
Key job responsibilities
Integrate, optimize, and maintain Wi-Fi and BLE protocol stacks on device platforms
Debug and resolve wireless connectivity issues: throughput, range, coexistence, roaming
Work with antenna engineers on matching network tuning and radiation pattern optimization
Implement and test mesh networking protocols (BLE Mesh, Wi-Fi EasyMesh)
Optimize wireless power consumption through duty cycling, listen intervals, and wake patterns
Develop RF test automation scripts for production line calibration and testing
Support regulatory certification testing (FCC, CE, BIS, TELEC) for wireless subsystems
A day in the life
As a member of the team, you will serve as the technical leader for device software development and operations. You will collaborate with stakeholders across Alexa Devices and Alexa Cloud teams to define roadmaps, plan requirements, make prioritization trade-offs, and feature development.
