The posting

Do you enjoy getting hands-on with complex electromechanical systems and keeping critical test infrastructure running at peak performance? As a Hardware Development Engineer at Amazon, you will combine 3D modeling and mechanical design with the build, maintenance, and troubleshooting of test systems that support hardware production. Working across hardware, software, and production teams, you will diagnose failures, identify root causes, and drive improvements that increase test system reliability and lab operational efficiency. This is a role where your design and engineering skills directly enable the teams around you to ship quality products.

Key job responsibilities - Design and model hardware components and test fixtures using CAD software, applying mechanical design principles to create solutions that meet defined specifications and manufacturing requirements. - Triage and troubleshoot test systems and hardware failures to identify root cause, using data acquisition systems, power supplies, and safety systems to resolve issues efficiently. - Build, maintain, and repair electromechanical test systems, ensuring high availability of test infrastructure across the lab environment. - Collaborate with hardware, software, and production teams to align on test system requirements and keep shared infrastructure operating reliably. - Develop test stand operational procedures and training manuals, and automate test systems to drive continuous improvement in reliability, lab safety, and operational efficiency.

A day in the life You will start your day checking the status of test systems across the lab, prioritizing any failures that need immediate attention. From there, you might open CAD to refine a 3D model for a test fixture, head to the floor to repair an electromechanical assembly. Afternoons could involve reviewing mechanical designs with peers, updating documentation for a modified test stand, or connecting with hardware and software engineers to troubleshoot cross-system issues and plan upcoming infrastructure needs.

About the team Our team keeps the test infrastructure running that Amazon's hardware teams depend on to validate and ship products. We own the build-out, maintenance, and continuous improvement of lab systems, partnering closely with hardware, software, and production groups. We value hands-on problem-solving, a commitment to safety, and a collaborative approach to keeping our lab environment reliable and efficient. If you are curious and motivated to improve the systems around you, this is a great place to grow your career at Amazon.

- 2+ years of hardware design and validation of components, subsystems and systems experience - Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, material science, physics or equivalent - Knowledge of SolidWorks or similar CAD experience and understanding of best practices for part design, and advanced assemblies

- Experience in system-level debugging - Experience with CATIA 3D modelling tool

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
