Amazon Music is Looking for Lab Engineer I, Device OS Full Time

DESCRIPTION

The Amazon Device OS team is looking for high-energy, detail-oriented, and technically-savvy Lab Engineer who will implement solutions like creating rig setups to reduce the repeated manual testing and to improve the overall test efficiency.

You will collaborate effectively with stakeholders, understand their requirements during rigs creation and make refinements accordingly. You must understand schematics and specifications of devices, remotes etc., to reverse engineer and rework hardware. You may contribute to the design and development of prototype hardware using 3D printing and coral drawings. You should be able to operate shop tools like soldering machines, hand drillers, hot guns etc. during the process of rigs creation and actively participate in maintaining a safe, clean and efficient lab.

You must create SOPs, educate partner teams during handover of Rigs/proto types for ease of operation and maintenance. You will actively participate in team meetings, project planning, prioritization discussions, solicit and process feedback for solutions proposed. You communicate clearly and effectively with stakeholders, tend to over-communicate and over-document.
